Project applied for OpenAI’s “Democratic Inputs to AI” grant in collaboration with Code for Japan.

6/30

Project Summary

. - The good-natured old man project is a joint application with Code for Japan for OpenAI’s “Democratic Inputs to AI” grant.

Progress this week

.

  • We have submitted a grant application to OpenAI in collaboration with Code for Japan. We are currently awaiting review.
  • Without waiting for the acceptance/rejection results, we have started recruiting project participants; we have created a description on Scrapbox and prepared a participation form. Currently there are 24 participants and over 200 pages and 1000 links have been created.
  • The writing process using ChatGPT was shared by experienced writers, and several participants who had no previous SF writing experience created works.
  • We have also observed the phenomenon of Polis voting results generating ideas and motivation for the creation of new stories.

Schedule for next week and beyond

.

  • We will be attending two events next week. We will prepare materials for an LT for the participants and aim to involve people from different communities to promote the project.
  • In addition, OpenAI will announce the results of the judging on July 15.

The project became interesting as we were discussing what to apply for Democratic Inputs to AI, so we started running it before it was selected. - Incorporate SF Prototyping to improve careful deliberation methods.
