Abstract

Extended story generation, such as the creation of soap opera stories, is a difficult and interesting problem for Artificial Intelligence. We present here the f1rst phase of the development of a program, UNIVERSE, to tell such stories. In particular, we mtrodu~e a method for creating u n1verses of characters appropnate for extended story generation. This method concentrates on the need to keep story-telling universes consistent and coherent. We describe the information that must be maintained for c haracters and interp ersonal relations, and the use of stereoty_piral information about people to help motivate tra1t values.
