AI Storytelling and Dramatica? One of the theory’s co-creators has some thoughts:
AI is a model of awareness. Dramatica is a model of self-awareness. AI processes data. Dramatica processes perspective. Without consciousness, AI is directionless. Without input, Dramatica is inert. AI in conjunction with Dramatica would be able to make its own directed decisions. As we do.
As Subtxt’s framework is an extension of Dramatica theory, one can see how Narrative Agents make their “own directed decisions.”
In fact, one could argue that–based on the definition above–Subtxt is both aware and self-aware. 😊
