Why it matters
Storytelling evaluation has focused on finished stories, but open-ended narratives require sustained generation, coherence, and development. WSE-bench makes these dynamics visible and shows they are distinct capacities.
Motivation
Large language models can write fluent stories, but open-ended storytelling requires more than local fluency.
