short_description: Generates student commentary for poems

Poem Commentary Generator

Project to create a free tool to help students learn to analyze poetry.

Basics

This tool is inspired by language learning primers like this Latin student aid for Vergil's Aeneid. Drawing on the metaphor of a foreign language, I created this tool to create a line-by-line commentary on a target poem to support students.

The outputs of this "custom GPT" should not be taken on trust, nor are they meant to replace or to simulate student work, but rather to supplement it. Reflection on the outputs is encouraged, for example, why the LLM so often struggles with basic sound patterns (e.g., alliteration, rhyme). Such conversations can develop critical AI literacy skills.

Much of the code is owed to @osanseviero and @ysharma
