Quick prototyping ideas with ChatGPT – thisfairytaledoesnotexist.com

Hacker News

I wanted to try out ChatGPT to do a small but tangible web project from start to finish in one evening to see how suitable it would be for quick prototyping. I used ChatGPT to write short fairy tales and also asked it to output a story title and a prompt for Stable Diffusion depicting the story. I copied all stories as-is, and manually picked one of the 4 options stable diffusion gave me for the image generated by "a children's book illustration of <prompt from ChatGPT>". Separately I asked it to generate the HTML template for the site, pick a font, write the about page and come up with a creative <meta> description. Even the PHP script to redirect the user to a random story was written by ChatGPT. (see /chatgpt.png for my conversation with ChatGPT relating coding the site). Only minor tweaks were needed. I got the project done in one evening. Crafting the prompt to make the stories (see /prompt.txt) took most of the time (still not perfect), together with registering the domain name and setting up SSL (Hetzner). In the end I only had to tweak the html/css/about parts of the project a little bit. Of course the stories lack some depth and the images are not of the highest quality. But it works and I could not have done this in one evening a few weeks ago. This makes me wonder what would be possible to achieve in one evening 3/6/12 months from now. I can absolutely see this being very useful for quick prototyping / co-creating projects. What do you think?
