Luminate: Structured Generation and Exploration of Design Space with Large Language Models for Human-AI Co-Creation

Motivation

Thanks to their generative capabilities, generative models are now an invaluable tool for creative tasks. They can instantly generate tens to hundreds of visual & textual outputs, offering an abundant source of inspiration. But are we using them to their full potential? Current interaction paradigms — such as prompt engineering (enter prompt -> get response -> refine prompt -> get response -> ... repeat until satisfied) — guide people to rapidly converge on a set of initial — potentially suboptimal — ideas and refine them instead of using their generative capabilities to bolster our creativity.

We argue that generative AI models should assist in the generation of the design space — a space of possible ideas — rather than individual artifacts at the early stage of the creative process to empower users and harness the creative potential of AI.

When users prompt, we can generate key dimensions relevant to a task or topic in the prompt (e.g., genre, plot, tone, etc. for writing a story) and then relevant values for these dimensions (e.g., sci-fi, romance, comedy, etc. for genre). Using these LLM-generated dimensions and values, we can generate a number of responses with different dimensional values. This enables the systematic generation of diverse responses/ideas, covering a wide range of possible responses (e.g., sci-fi, romance, comedy).

To test the feasibility and scalability of this approach, we developed Luminate, an interactive system with novel features to support this proposed interaction paradigm.

Installation

If running for the first time, install dependencies (required: node.js v14.17.0):

npm install

To run server, write:

npm run dev

To use OpenAI API,

  1. create .env file at the root of the directory.

  2. Add the following in .env:

    VITE_OPENAI_API_KEY = "{YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY}"

  3. Replace {YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY} with your openAI API key
