abstract

We explore story generation: creative systems that can build coherent and fluent passages of text about a topic. We collect a large dataset of 300K human-written stories paired with writing prompts from an online forum. Our dataset enables hierarchical story generation, where the model first generates a premise, and then transforms it into a passage of text. We gain further improvements with a novel form of model fusion that improves the relevance of the story to the prompt, and adding a new gated multi-scale self-attention mechanism to model long-range context. Experiments show large improvements over strong baselines on both automated and human evaluations. Human judges prefer stories generated by our approach to those from a strong non-hierarchical model by a factor of two to one.

The Impact of Off-Policy Training Data on Probe Generalisation

cs.AI · 2025-11-21 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Off-policy training data for LLM behavior probes causes significant generalization failures especially for intent-based behaviors like deception, and performance on coerced incentivised data correlates with real on-policy success.

Annotations Mitigate Post-Training Mode Collapse

cs.CL · 2026-05-11 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Annotation-anchored training reduces semantic diversity collapse in post-trained language models by a factor of six compared to standard supervised fine-tuning while preserving instruction-following and improving with scale.

A Universal Avoidance Method for Diverse Multi-branch Generation

cs.CL · 2026-04-19 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

UAG is a universal avoidance generation method that increases multi-branch diversity in diffusion and transformer models by penalizing output similarity, delivering up to 1.9x higher diversity with 4.4x speed and 1/64th the FLOPs of prior methods.

Do Linear Probes Generalize Better in Persona Coordinates?

cs.AI · 2026-05-10 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0 · 2 refs

Persona axes derived from contrastive prompts and PCA yield linear probes that generalize better than raw-activation probes across 10 datasets for deception and sycophancy.

Skeleton-based Coherence Modeling in Narratives

cs.CL · 2026-04-02 · unverdicted · novelty 4.0

Sentence-level models outperform skeleton-based approaches for narrative coherence despite a new SSN network improving on cosine and Euclidean baselines.
