TALE-SPIN, An Interactive Program that Writes Stories
Proceedings of the Fifth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence. Natural Language. Pages 91-97.
Abstract
TA1E=sPYN is a program that writes stories by using knowledge about problem solving, physical space, interpersonal relationsnips, character traits, bodily needs, story structure, and Englisn. for tnese diverse sources of knowledge, it uses forms of representation which are tnemselves diverse, and it integrates tnem to produce the stories. The user may choose some of the initial setting and answer yuestions during the creation of the story, or he can choose from a list of "morals" such as "Never trust flatterers" and the program will decide what the initial setting must be in order to be able to write a story with that moral. The particular world within the story is not fixed; new characters and objects are introduced as needed.
