Literary artist Sasha Stiles, who has been collaborating with GPT language models since 2018, says she customizes her datasets with a “compendium of training materials” that started with drafts of her manuscript and all of her “human poetry.” She then added research notes, reference material and inspiring literature.
Stiles added that working with an AI language model was like “taking all the things that were swirling in my head when I was working on my manuscript, putting them into a system and using algorithms to synthesize them.”
