A new research paper published on arXiv investigates the narrative diversity of large language models (LLMs) when generating stories. The study found that LLM-generated narratives are significantly more similar to each other than human-written stories. This homogeneity is particularly pronounced in frontier models, which tend to converge on a generic narrative style. The research also indicates that common methods like negative prompting and temperature scaling are ineffective at increasing the diversity of LLM outputs. AI
IMPACT LLMs struggle to produce diverse narratives, potentially limiting creative applications and highlighting a gap compared to human authors.
