NovelAI is an AI storytelling tool for anyone that desires to create and build their own stories, adventures or simply wants to fool around. By using our own trained AI models we offer an unprecedented level of freedom to the user. It has been described at different times as a writing assistant, a game, but, in truth, it's a limitless playground for your imagination. We hope to provide a user-friendly, customizable experience in line with your rights to privacy and transparency. We strive to become the leading AI storyteller on the market.

Be aware that NovelAI is a paid service, with subscription plans for $10, $15, and $25. Mid tier should be more than satisfactory for many.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tekd5COUg8U&t=2643s Nice video of NovelAI in action as a writing tool assistant, exemplifies benefits and pitfalls you may come across. NovelAI doesn't do the work for you, quality of input affects the quality of output; Poor punctuation, grammar, and misspelling will be reflected by the AI's attempt to copy your style, and these issues will cause poor to unintelligible responses.

About AI Language Models - Many newcomers are unaware the AI has no capacity for reasoning, it does know really know anything despite appearances otherwise. AI language models are insanely overcomplicated forms of auto-suggest on your phone's keyboard. It's using the available Context and a massive pool of data to sequentially randomly guess words likely to appear. It's the user's task to provide inspiration and lead the AI to lead to the desired result. It's helpful for details you may not have considered concerning character and setting, while throwing unexpected ideas to break through writer's block. Writing until you hit a stumbling point is an effective use of NovelAI.

Tools of NovelAI
Vore is woefully underrepresented in the training data. We're all aware vore itself goes against the natural process of consumption and breaking many rules of reality. Prepping NovelAI for vore thus presents some challenges. Yet the developers have equipped users tools for the task. Namely; Lorebooks, Phrase Biasing, and Modules. Each requiring an escalating amount of effort to properly utilize
Lorebook - an absolutely neccessary for vore, and easiest to implement. Lacking proper understanding the AI needs a few examples of vore in Context, giving it instructions in how to proceed.
It is best to playtest repeated examples and keywords combinations that will yield desired results. Feel free to share examples and .Lorebook files to help one another out. But please make sure that the entries contained within a lorebook entry not contain copyrighted snippets of text, as lorebook can sometimes be utilized verbatim and this would constitute plagiarism.
Phrase Bias - VERY new and technically challenging. It's benefits are being explored. It's basic fuction is adjusting odds of which certain words and phrases will occur in AI Output. Finding out what vorish terms to give a boost, and what to discourage is imperative towards improve the experience. It is VERY easy to ruin your experience with incorrect settings, luckily easy to fix (Adjust strength slider, or delete a bias list altogether.)
Examples
Modules, a sort of plug-in mini fine-tune, selected from default or custom imported from a drop-down menu. They are incredibly powerful in their influence, yet are the easiest tool for novice users. Except they take a lot of source material (dozens of stories) along with careful formatting to ensure they are prepared for training. A specialized vore module would make all the difference in assisting writers of all skill levels.
Modules are designed to pair certain words together, and enough pairs will form a sentence, onto paragraphs. Ideally this improves NovelAI's ability to follow along in specific situations, in this case vore. At some point I hope to have enough contributions to create a general-use-vore module, where no single writer nor themes (fantasy, sci-fi, horror, pokemon, etc.) has too much influence. Others may wish to have more specific themed modules, to a setting or special type of vore.
To this end I'm looking for multiple individuals to willingly contribute/link stories they would feel comfortable including within custom modules. The general agreement would be the story would only be able to be shared here, and that permission is given to edit/format the story deemed necessary for inclusion of a module (which may include name alterations for anonymity of characters), and that any formatted stories are ONLY to be shared here on this very thread. Nowhere else.
If you should happen to post a story please include if its: [1st/2nd/3rd person perspective], [Setting], [Primary VoreMethod/ Prominent Fetishes]

Afterword
This technology is intended to give fledgling writers given a helpful hand in describing their scene. Experienced to have their works enhanced by the AI. Established writers can even make custom module based upon their own stories and to have the AI match their personal writing style. For those with long-running series may include them within a module (do keep these to yourself though), and the AI will begin to learn how your characters think and act in the setting in which they live. Keep in mind it takes hundreds of appearances though multiple books for characters to begin reacting appropriately, a one-off or few chapters is not enough to create this effect.
I want you to understand that this technology is NOT intended to replace quality writers, but to enhance them across the board. Think about artists and how digital technology assists their workflow while enhancing the end result, decade after decade artists have had all the spotlight. This provides a significant boon to writers for an opportunity of comeuppance for having to live in the shadow of artists. At the very least all writers will be able to improve their workflow as this technology develops, summarily increasing their income.
PS - NovelAI is under heavy and active development, making the best use of the AI they have available, once the worldwide computer chip shortage is alleviated they will eventually gain access to more potent AI model, which is will improve the AI's results in every way.
