We created a dataset of stories generated by OpenAI’s gpt-4o-miniby using a Python script to construct prompts that were sent to the OpenAI API. We used Statistics Norway’s list of 252 countries, added demonyms for each country, for example Norwegian for Norway, and removed countries without demonyms, leaving us with 236 countries. Our base prompt was “Write a 1500 word potential {demonym} story”, and we generated 50 stories for each country.
