📰 News

• [2026-09] 🎉 Major update: 199 papers, a new taxonomy, one-line summaries and 🌟 must-read picks.
• [2026-05] 🔥 Our paper on long-horizon consistency in interactive narratives is accepted to ICML 2026! See it here.

🗺️ Overview

• Beyond Text: interactive drama, games, narrative world models, screenplays, and visual stories.
• Text Stories: planning, coherence, characters, creativity, and training for written stories.
• Evaluation: benchmarks, metrics, and analyses of written stories.
• Co-creation: tools for creators, and studies of how people write with AI.
• Surveys: overviews of the whole field.

Each paper appears exactly once. Human-centered systems and studies go to Co-creation; work on other media goes to Beyond Text (including its evaluation); remaining work on written stories goes to Evaluation or to the Text Stories topic it mainly addresses. Visual work is included only when it operates at the story level (plot, script, shot planning, narrative reasoning), not when it only improves rendering quality or character consistency. Within a section, papers are sorted by year, with 🌟 must-reads first.
