Hi Product Hunt, and thank you to Rajiv for hunting us. I’m Kwindla and I’m part of the product team here at Daily. Today, we’re excited to launch Storybot AI, an interactive, LLM-powered story teller designed to converse with young children. Here’s a summary of how it works: - You speak to Storybot and tell it what you’d like to hear a story about. - Storybot processes your voice and starts telling a story. - Along the way, you’ll be given different choices, in an AI version of “choose-your-own-adventure” storytelling. - You can respond with a choice from the options that Storybot gives you, or nudge the story in a different direction that’s all your own. Under the covers, we use Deepgram for low-latency speech-to-text, Azure OpenAI GPT-4 to imagine the story, OpenAI DALL-E 2 to generate images, and PlayHT for speech synthesis. The voice and video run on our own global, real-time WebRTC infrastructure. The team had a blast coming up with and building Storybot. And, as a team of parents, our kids have certainly enjoyed robustly “testing” this fun new product with their story ideas. On behalf of everyone at Daily, I hope you enjoy Storybot as much as we do! Drop a comment to tell us about your Storybot experience! We’d love to hear about the funniest, most engaging, or most surprising stories that you come up with together with Storybot.:sunglasses:

This project started as a demo app using Daily.co's video api and other new AI libraries. It's a really creative, fun use of realtime tech + AI, plus they have an in-depth blogpost on how to build something similar yourself. I saw it live at an event and it was delightful!

Oh, this is interesting! I don't have kids, but this would be a fun way to raising kids!

@new_user_148b3c8cc9 It is fun to use Storybot with a kid. But it's fun to hear a good story, even as an adult! I've also found it interesting to use Storybot just from the perspective of learning a little bit more about what GPT-4 can do well.

@rajiv_ayyangar @kwindia Seeing a lot of AI story apps launching on PH. But I am sure the demand is also high. I wish you luck :)

Thanks, @neelptl2602. I've really enjoyed seeing these launches, too. There are so many good makers exploring the new capabilities of generative AI. Storybot is different from the others I've seen lately in that you talk to it with your voice, and guide the story as you go along. We think of Storybot as a demo (with source code available) of some of the best practices around building voice-driven and speech-to-speech LLM applications.

@kingromstar Yes, just by talking! It's really fun. Did you try it with them?

I love how a few words can make the AI come up with loads of creative lines for the story and ask for suggestions in between. It would be great if there is a way to do two things 1. Add more people to the meeting to enjoy the bliss of alternating prompts to make one whole story 2. Get a transcript of the entire story narrated by the AI. Is there a way to do it??? Eagerly waiting!

@josephine912 there’s indeed a story with pictures generated at the end of the call! That story is shareable with others.

@vr000m oh! thanks for letting me know. I must have missed it. I will try again.

@josieee testing this was mostly ad-hoc. But, I was just telling some friends yesterday how different it is to test and debug LLMs and AI output in general, because the product is by its nature unpredictable. I think we'll start seeing the mainstreaming of testing tools implemented with LLMs to evaluate the output of products built using LLMs. Separating out the "predictably testable" parts, that can be tested with traditional testing means, from the "probability-based testable" parts feels like it's also something we'll all need to get good at.

Congratulations team Storybot AI on your remarkable launch on Producthunt! Your tech is an incredible advancement in creative, interactive storytelling. One suggestion I would give is to introduce a feature where users could mold the plot as the story progresses. This could make your already exciting choose-your-own-adventure experience even more thrilling. Keep up the excellent work!

@manmohit Thanks, Manmohit! Can you tell us a little more about what flexibility you'd like there to be? Did you try just giving your own idea to Storybot, when it asks you for a choice? You can say pretty much anything and Storybot will try to incorporate the new idea into the story. You don't have to just answer with one of the choices it suggests.

@ojo_julius Would love to hear what kind of stories your children asked for. We've been collecting funny ones at Daily. Two of my favorites are pirate ships crewed by unicorns, and friendly aliens that teach their friends the stars to dance.

This is so cool, Daily!! Love how kids can create a story inspired by their own imaginations. Nicely done.
