Abstract or Description:

People always envision the future of earth through science fiction (Sci-fi), so can we create a unique experience of "visiting the future earth" through the lens of artificial intelligence (AI)? We introduce Wander 2.0, an AI chatbot that co-creates sci-fi stories through knowledge-based story generation on daily communication platforms like WeChat and Discord. Using location information from Google Maps, Wander generates narrative travelogues about specific locations (e.g. Paris) through a large-scale language model (LLM). Additionally, using the large-scale text-to-image model (LTGM) Stable Diffusion, Wander transfers future scenes that match both the text description and location photo, facilitating future imagination. The project also includes a real-time visualization of the human-AI collaborations on a future map. Through journeys with visitors from all over the world, Wander demonstrates how AI can serve as a subjective interface linking fiction and reality. Our research shows that multi-modal AI systems have the potential to extend the artistic experience and creative world-building through adaptive and unique content generation for different people. Wander 2.0 is available at http://wander001.com/
