A new research paper identifies a significant lack of diversity in stories generated by large language models. The study found that a small set of 11 words, including names like Elias and settings like lighthouses, appear in nearly 90% of generated stories across four different models. These words are not common in general literature but are prevalent in preference datasets likely used for model alignment, suggesting that these datasets and alignment techniques may be disproportionately influencing model output and leading to repetitive narratives.
