• Abstract: Generative AI has demonstrated unprecedented creativity in the field of computer vision, yet such phenomena have not been observed in natural language processing. In particular, large language models (LLMs) can hardly produce written works at the level of human experts due to the extremely high complexity of literature writing. In this paper, we present HoLLMwood, an automated framework for unleashing the creativity of LLMs and exploring their potential in screenwriting, which is a highly demanding task. Mimicking the human creative process, we assign LLMs to different roles involved in the real-world scenario. In addition to the common practice of treating LLMs as ${Writer}$, we also apply LLMs as ${Editor}$, who is responsible for providing feedback and revision advice to ${Writer}$. Besides, to enrich the characters and deepen the plots, we introduce a role-playing mechanism and adopt LLMs as ${Actors}$ that can communicate and interact with each other. Evaluations on automatically generated screenplays show that HoLLMwood substantially outperforms strong baselines in terms of coherence, relevance, interestingness and overall quality.

  Large Language Models (LLM) achieve state-of-the-art performance on many NLP tasks. We study whether LLMs can be used as substitutes for human annotators. We find that LLMs outperform current automatic measures for system-level evaluation but still struggle to provide satisfactory explanations.

• Characterising the Creative Process in Humans and Large Language Models [6.363158395541767]
  We provide an automated method to characterise how humans and LLMs explore semantic spaces on the Alternate Uses Task. We use sentence embeddings to identify response categories and compute semantic similarities, which we use to generate jump profiles. Our results corroborate earlier work in humans reporting both persistent (deep search in few semantic spaces) and flexible (broad search across multiple semantic spaces) pathways to creativity. Though LLMs as a population match human profiles, their relationship with creativity is different, where the more flexible models score higher on creativity.

  Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities across a wide array of tasks. The capability to explain in natural language allows LLMs to expand the scale and complexity of patterns that can be given to a human. These new capabilities raise new challenges, such as hallucinated explanations and immense computational costs.

  This paper aims to establish an efficient framework for assessing the level of creativity in large language models (LLMs) By adapting the Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking, the research evaluates the creative performance of various LLMs across 7 tasks. We found that the creativity of LLMs primarily falls short in originality, while excelling in elaboration.

  Large Language Models are increasingly being used in domains such as generating prose, poetry or art. This work provides a mathematical abstraction to describe creativity and reality based on certain losses. A model trained on these losses balances the trade-off between the creativity and reality of the model.

  Large Language Models (LLMs) can be applied to domains beyond natural language processing. LLMs planning in embodied environments need to consider not just what skills to do, but also how and when to do them. We propose that by leveraging environment feedback, LLMs are able to form an inner monologue that allows them to more richly process and plan in robotic control scenarios.
