Is it possible to make it able to pause (and go back) in the training? would really want to watch it but it was difficult to do since a lot of things use to disturb me (read kids) while watching.
yo yo bro stop right there. 02:34 of course it's gonna fly with amazon. are you taking us for fools? if AutoGPT is your shadow meaning writes answer and in general acts like you...then why ChatGPT won't manage to write a book taking orders from AutoGPT when you have prompted it to generate a book every day giving the genre or plus info?or use prefixed commands?
Disclaimer - since I filmed this video, Originality. Ai updated their tool to now detect content that are just run through quillbot + grammarly so this rewrite method doesn’t work anymore. BUT that wasn’t the point of the video. The point was to never copy paste from chatgpt without rewriting to make the content your own, and quillbot was just one way of doing it. You can still manually rewrite it and do the same thing.
I agree, Sean -- whatever you do as the author with AI, etc., go through and write or re-write the content with your own "voice" -- your own way of saying things, your own examples, etc. That's real work, no question about it. But it's better than trying to take the easy way of having AI write the content and then run into account problems with Amazon.
@@bentoleal8690 yeah, but you can train it to learn your writing style and rewrite content on your writing style. So it will take your working draft and make it in your voice.
@@comeforaride Probably true. What I’m finding both the safest, as well as the most satisfying, is to use AI for some basic content and then go line by line and write it my own way, and then run it all through Grammarly.
This cured my writer's block. 1. write 3-4 paragraphs that are 100% yours. 2. Enter that to chatgpt. 3. Enter command to chatgpt, "copy my writing style and continue the story."
I do it before. You can also tell gpt, When I paste some of my novel, I want you to continue my novel in my writing style. Continue the novel for 500 more words. you can add more than 500 or less. You can also tell it to write in another authors writing style. Like Stephen King or someone else. After you tell it that you want it to continue your novel when you paste, every time you paste info on that chat, it will automatically continue your novel
I'd like to add something that is working incredibly well for me. If you include "without adjectives" in your writing requests, chat bots will literally strip out all adjectives from their responses. This not only gives you less physical words to edit (Step #2 in the video) but you can then "color" that bland text with the adjectives that make your writing voice yours.
@@clashiii3852 Sure. Because AIs are designed to lean heavily on a handful of adjectives and adverbs, you're going to have 800,000 "quickly"s to edit. Text without adjectives is both pithy and a great opportunity to reserve powerful descriptors for areas of your text that need an emotional "pop".
As a freelancer I use Grammarly as my editor to check for anything that I might have missed. When you read your own work your brain can fool you and miss things. Grammarly does a nice job of pointing out small things that I've missed, such as the tense of a word, or forgetting to add a conjunction or adjective. However, as the Grammarly team will tell you themselves, they are SUGGESTIONS and sometimes their suggestions will technically change the meaning of your text. Therefore, do not just quickly click accept on every suggestion to speed things along. Take the time to read each suggestion and ensure that it fits. Based on my experience, the suggestions in red (correctness) are nearly always correct. The suggestions for clarity, engagement, and delivery can be very subjective and you may find they don't fit your message. Just slow down and take time to review each one.
Hey I have a finished manuscript and images and I'm stuck at this point. Can you tell me how I can format this book and put it together. I came to this video thinking maybe chat gpt can format the book and give me the correct file type and size so I can upload to ingramspark. Please help. Hope this message finds you well.
I use Grammarly Premium But I also use Word, one of the things I found most helpful is to listen to the audio. You do this by clicking review and then clicking the big 'A' for audio. It's robotic, but hearing the story helps me to edit things I might have missed.

Hi, I'm an established author and have several books under my belt. About five years ago I began working on another one. A lot has happened in my life in the last five years and I became completely blocked. I came across this video and had no idea what this was, however, I tried it and it's amazing! I use a few paragraphs of my own work, ask it to finish the story in my own voice and it gave me back several paragraphs that sounded like my style. I ran each through a plagiarism checker, several in fact, and they all came back 100% genuine. That's before I did anything to them. I didn't use them in my stories but tweaked, rewrote, and made it work for me. Tip: if you only use a couple sentences, it may not give you the results you want. However, if you use a couple of paragraphs, it'll pick up your tone and the idea of the story and create it for you. It's pretty neat! 😀
One tenant of journalism I learned is… Simple words, Simple Sentences, Simple Paragraphs. Go through each individual word chatgbt puts out and replace each word with a simpler word option. Next simplify each sentence. Lastly, simplify each paragraph. Just doing that alone will make a HUGE difference in making the content both more original and more accessible for the reader.
I can't tell you how much I appreciate this video. Demographic designer but just getting started with KDP and seriously have spent about 6 months at this point just getting to read contracts and know exactly what's legal and what's not legal. I'm playing around with AI but I would never use the words or the images without serious changes. I watched a video of that somebody did that was called you know how to use Ai and publish a book in 60 minutes. She literally put in like "a rabbit goes to the woods" and then AI generated a whole thing. She went to Canva and copy and pasted it. Didn't even read it! Then she went to an image AI thing and said "fox in the woods" or whatever. She took every image that came up and downloaded and pasted it into canva. No one style no nothing. One of the pages was divided into quarters and each of those quarters contained an image that she had created in AI that had a fox in the woods and had nothing to do with each other. When back and created an image that was fox in the woods threw it on the cover asked AI what the title it and that was that. She showed it and it was a horrible nightmare. But she ended her video with you can do that now go publish it and make a million dollars. And of course thousands of comments of thank you very much, thank you very much... She never checked it for plagiarism she didn't check it for anything. But of course it's not on Amazon that she's making her living it's on RUclips. What's the other thing is you can upload whatever you want but it doesn't mean anybody's going to buy it. If you have no five stars and you have three ones and they say doesn't make sense, people actually think that the next person will but it? KDP is really culturally self governed. If four people hate your book, and nobody loves it, are the three five-star ratings I'll use the exact same words, nobody else is going to buy it. Period. Done. But meanwhile all this horrible Ai text and AI generated images that are just awful (6 fingers on one hand) is clutter and noise on KDP for the people who are doing it the right way. I appreciated your video thank you very much. Starting to wonder if too often AI is writing RUclipss. As a magazine layout person and graphic designer as well as 24 year adobe user, I cringe! Thanks for not telling everybody it's so simple to become a millionaire.
The outline feature of PaperGen has been incredibly beneficial for me. It organizes my thoughts in a clear and logical manner, which enhances the overall flow of my writing. I now spend much less time feeling stuck in front of a blank page and can focus more on actually writing. It feels like having a dedicated writing assistant that takes care of the structural work for me.
I think you’re tutorial was super great! It’s good advice to say don’t let ChatGPT replace your writing but to use it as a tool. It does come up with some good workable content for that “writer’s block". I would love to see a tutorial from you that goes into how to publish books with KDP without buying something and what tips and tricks you may have. I found it pretty difficult to understand the publishing part and creating the covers without buying some other publishing tool to help. Can’t wait to see your next vid! ❤
You are such a good communicator. It bugs me when people somehow edit out all natural breathing spaces and it makes it hard to listen to. I get so much out of your talks and don't need to pause for comprehension. Masterful!
Thank you for your content! I have worked as a Certified Pharmacy Technician for over 23 years, so well over a decade too long! Due to life circumstances it was my best option. Circumstances have changed and I am dead set on becoming my own boss! I started watching You Tube video to make basic household and automotive repairs that saved me so A Lot of $$$, but now I am utilizing You Tube to make money! It hasn't happened yet, but thanks to influencers like you I am well on my may to do so! Thanks again!
I‘m so pumped about your generosity of sharing your knowledge Sean, it shows how great of a spirit you are. Thank you so much, you‘re helping a great deal. Best wishes from Germany. Marcell
I write what i want the chapter to entail, ask it to write the general premise of the chapter in bullet points including: Setting and Context, Opening Hooks, Main Plot Points, Closing Scene, and Foreshadowing. And then use these bullet points to craft my own chapters with my own writing
Hey there! Just watched the vid and gotta say, it's an absolute gem! The guy nailed it with the step-by-step breakdown of writing a book using ChatGPT. Loved how he pointed out those sneaky mistakes we all tend to overlook. Seriously, it's like a hidden treasure of writer's wisdom! The best part? The dude made it super fun and engaging. I was hooked from start to finish! This video is hands down the best thing I've seen on the subject. Major props to the creator for sharing such valuable tips in such an accessible and entertaining way.
Thank you so much! I totally want to “ keep” my voice as a writer. But time for generating the “ supplements” is exciting to keep the process going. I’m a sub and like your post- ty for no dramatic effects for a learning platform.: Just pointers , perfect.
I had just asked Siri to look up how to use ChatGBT and a moment later I got your notification about this brand new video from you. Thanks again for putting out these great freebies!!!!!
I made it to the end and it was a nice one but need to go through it over and over again for a better understanding. Thank you so much Jane from Uganda
With markets tumbling, inflation soaring, the Fed imposing large interest-rate hike, while treasury yields are rising rapidly-which means more red ink for portfolios this quarter. How can I profit from the current volatile market, I'm still at a crossroads deciding if to liquidate my $125k bond/stock portfolio
infact, ever since Coronavirus, I've been in regular communication with financial examiners. Nowadays, buying moving stocks is quite easy; the trick is knowing when to buy and when to sell. The section and leave orders for my portfolio are made by my counsel. accumulated more than $550,000 from a $150,000 savings that was initially stale.
Productivity never happens by chance; it is always the result of careful preparation, dedication, and consistency. I thank God for my advisor, Yuval Eric Brokman; with his assistance, I am now financially solid, earning between $10,000 and $25,000 every week.
As Yuval Eric Brokman is a highly sought-after counsel, he is actually the one who directs me. Nonetheless, you can try your luck. Just leaving his phone number would not be appropriate. he may be lying about, but if you Google his name, you can view his website.
When I know what should happen but I can't find the inspiration to get the chapter on paper I will show it my previous chapter, then ask to "write the following scene in my style:" and i'll describe what needs to happen and boom. I can move on to the chapter that I AM inspired for. It works like magic to get beyond the scenes you are otherwise stuck on for who knows who long (we all know this can be hours to years) (you can also tell in general lines what you want to happen or where it should move towards and then ask it to write you a bulletpoint outline (and make it more interesting, for example) if you are stuck on HOW to get to the next point) 😊
This is an amazing and real video. It is awesome and full of very useful content. I've been publishing for years and I've just started with chatgpt. You probably saved my Amazon account. Thanks!
As a writer, it is so interesting to see how others might use ChatGPT. I like how you've structured this video & your insights into book production, especially around how you can improve the quality of content. Thanks!
Google does NOT punish you for using AI generated content. Originally they did but they changed their stance. As long as the content is factual and provides value they will not take action. And depending on the content Amazon will not block your publication. I have two ebooks that were largely written with AI and they are fine. Yes, you need to fact check and make sure you're providing legit info.
I’m not pulling random claims out of my ass. Google officially says AI content is allowed, but they also did an algo update after that announcement that killed lots of sites with purely AI written articles as well as seems like you can’t monetize your site via adsense if site content is 100% AI. So basically Google is officially saying it’s ok, but the reality is they don’t like it if people spam AI content. Amazon is same. I’m sure you can use AI as an assistant but if you just copy paste AI content which is often crap, that will be an issue in the long run even if you have no problem now.
Yes, people fail to understand that each content generated by chatgpt is paraphrased and original. Using those paraphrasing tools even makes the content weird and somehow not sweer. I don't think amazon will hold people responsible for using AI unless your book is not highly qualitative. People are cashing out writing nonfiction books with chatgpt and let me be Frank with you, if you know how to use chatgpt in a best way, it it even more reliable than human written content
@@SeanDollwet if it can't detect AI, for example most of my content is AI generated, BUT, none of the detectors show it more than 10% generated, it really shouldn't be a problem. You need to change your prompts. I get it as it may be archivablw somewhere and at some point checked. But if, by current technology, it comes back as 90% human content, it's what it is. Just for fun, a lot of my content that I created myself, from scratch averages like 50% AI and even my old college assays from like 20 years ago come up as 50% AI haha. You need to add the last stage of rewrite to rewrite in human voice. (A little more complicated than that. But it only took me a couple hours to create the structure for a prompt that generates human content back in January, and it's been spitting out human voice content ever since).
@@SeanDollwet It was the other way around. They killed sites first, then revoked their stance. They were against it at first and demonetized sites. Now they will not. I do not think you're pulling random claims out of your ass. Many people read one thing and that was their understanding. Most people still think AI content is against the rules. I agree that if you copy and paste without verifying it you can get crap but it does depend on the subject. You can have ChatGPT write code and it will most likely be bad code, if you have ChatGPT write a blog post about the Keto diet it will most likely be factual and correct. As long as you are providing value there is no issue.
This is my first time enjoying your RUclips channel. Great content! Looking forward to hearing more from you! Your video was so informative. Thank you so much!
I found your video useful & informative. Also purchased KDSPY plus another product from Publishing Altitude using your link. Next I'm going to use the Spanish translation link soon. Thanks.
Hey, I just wanted to tell u I thought this was one of the better videos for this subject that I've seen. I'm a writer with a massive mental block and usually wouldn't think to use chatgpt. I'd always been able to just put my hands on the keyboard and create a world with almost no effort at all. It was like I just could see into another dimension and all my characters were real people to me, I still feel that way. I had always been sick, in fact I couldn't go to school, thankfully I always loved learning and so I sought out and consumed information. Im autodidactic, self taught on everything, but folks always think I went to college. I dunno if that says more about me or the education system, lol. In my mid 20's I became even more ill, and slipped into a coma. Septic shock. I should NOT have survived medically, and last year I survived my 3rd septic shock coma. Not fun. 2 steps forward, 3 steps back. Anyhow, it's been hard to recapture that ease with which I used to write. I keep trying to find something that will help me find that place where u create like breathing, without must thought, and ease. U never come out of a coma the same way u went into it. U see the world differently, I also had NDEs each time so in some ways I've gained. So I have am 42 now and disabled, I was always a novelist but I've recently wanted to write a workbook on self advocacy for adults and kids. I don't usually wanna use AI for creative writing but since I am always looking for ways to help me with this mental BLOCK ur video caught my attention. It's the first video on the topic that wasn't about avoiding writing that I've seen. I don't wanna avoid it, I wanna get back to it! I would love to be able to make even a little money, as it is my brother is my caregiver and I survive on so little. Disability is about 800 bucks a month and trust me NO ONE disabled wants to be. Welfare isn't a prize. U can't even survive on that without housing aid... I'd be happy if I made nothing on it, if the advocacy workbooks help someone. Especially the one on how to advocate for a child. I know so much about the topic because of my personal experiences. Anyhow, I'll take a look at ur other videos. Writing is my passion, it sucks knowing what u can do but not being able to make it happen. Blessings and Peace
Bought Grammarly Premium and did exactly as you suggested (several times) and EVERY time AI was detected as 100%! Only difference now to before watching your vid is I have Grammarly Premium 🤷🏼♂
I think chat is brilliant for ideas and understanding your audience. Would you make a video on how to use midjourna correctly and safely for kdp purposes? How to create coloring pages or illustrations for books or covers?
The paragraph I wrote was 86% generated apparently. 😂 is this a compliment or an insult? Thank you for this tutorial and the pointers. Grammarly has become a savior and helped fully round out my thoughts I was trying to convey.
What I like about chatgpt is that it writes better than me. I bought a couple of books to research more about this AI tool and they have been helpful. On the other hand, I work with literary resources to give a better meaning or embellish the idea or concept I want to express, for example, hyperbole, simile, personification, hyperbaton, etc etc. What I had not included in my repertoire is Grammarly, I have the free version, but I must upgrade.
I remember a writer giving advice that it’s ok to write drunk or high as long as you edit sober. You have to make the text make sense when you’re at your most sensible. I’m thinking at this point writing with AI is probably similar. Generates text may be useful but it should still be considered a rough draft. You still have to make sure you have a quality document at the end. The generated text may look superficially ok like cool looking generated images. But before publishing images you want to take a close look and make sure the person doesn’t have branching fingers or two upper lips. Generated text can produce similar kinds of errors but they may be harder to spot if you’re generating text outside your knowledge area. So special care should be taken.
Yeah, just new to Leonardo AI, and for lack of an idea I said show me NY Giants WR scoring TD. I got a guy running down the field and the ball mysteriously floating next to home, another one he going up for the ball and I swear his left leg is coming directly out his butt! and another just gave me a running football player in a uniform, not NY Giants-like. The last one that I keep was decent, but the defender had 3 legs chasing the guy! Ran out of MidJourney credit. I was lucky because if you got premium ChatGPT you can through joining Leonardo quickly, I was approved the next day. That's pretty when you take into account everybody not wanting to pay MidJourney prices and looking for the best alternative. I got a lot to learn using Leonardo AI, I have to learn how to prompt correctly to get the right picture, which is not easy to do, the two lips you mentioned. I had a little fun I like Leonardo AI
Another problem is that if you do not rewrite the text yourself, you have ZERO legal claim to copyright. AI software cannot own a copyright, but neither can you claim its work as your own. (Heads up: Claiming to have written something you didn't is called "plagiarism," whether a machine wrote it or not, and it's still unethical regardless of what you call it.) And yes, at this point, AI is not a great writer and needs a LOT of help.
I'm sure other writers have noticec but ChatGPT doesnt really write very unique or interesting stories. However, It is amazing at helping you overcome writers block and continue writing.
Love the content. I did try some of the tricks you suggested and even then, the content is labeled as 100% AI generated. It’s not even list format but paragraph formats. I even went in to rewrite the entire sentence by combining the concepts of sentences together and Originality is still saying it’s AI content. Don’t know if that’s just how good I am or how sensitive the detection is,….. lol
Thank you Sean for all the help you are giving us out here in struggling land to get our publishing biz's up and running. You are one of a kind and a wonderful soul for doing what you do. I appreciate you and will continue to follow you until I can't any more. Mike G.
Amazon KDP's policies and guidelines do not specifically mention AI-generated content, and there have been no issued statements prohibiting or permitting its use on the platform.
Just because there was no official statement about it doesn’t mean there won’t be in the future, and publishing books before the official statement does not make it safe
Very happy to find you on youtube. When it comes to writing on ChatGPT, nobody really discusses the "About the Author" page. Should we include such a page in our book? If we do, how should we introduce ourselves? We don't have an educational background directly related to many of the books we plan to publish in the future.
@Serai3 I don't get your where your anger??? is coming from. People get ideas of what they would like a novel to be about. However, they can't write the story for personal reasons that they don't find imperative, to tell. So, they hire a ghost writer to turn the Ideas of each and every chapter into descriptive words/sentences. The same thing Chat gpt does... just for free.
I am a professional editor who has worked both in traditional publishing and freelance. Traditionally, for a fiction novel, you get a little blurb on the back of the book/on the inside back book sleeve about yourself, which should be shorter than the book plot summary blurb. A few SHORT sentences is a good limit for that. For non-fiction, IF your bio is relevant to the subject, work up the same short "back of the book" bio, and another for inside the book as an actual page of text. That should also be short-- no more than about 2/3 of the page. Have a few pro editors look it over to give you feedback (on content, as well as spelling). For your bio, just like your book summary blurb, you want it to be VERY refined and perfected. You need it to be able to SELL yourself, so pay a few humans $40-$50 (USD) each to see how it sounds to human ears.
@@Emma19 Wow, you must be scared of everybody if you thought I was angry. I was just asking the logical question. If a book is "written" by AI, then it isn't written by a PERSON. Thus it's a good idea to tell people that, especially given how utterly crappy AI writing is. I'd be pissed if I bought a book thinking a real person was behind it and all I got was a garbled mess put together by a robot.
Hey man, I had no idea this was possible, a friend came to me talking about using AI to help him create a D&D campaing (yeah, we are nerds) and it dawned on me that maybe I could use it to try to write a full novel. I'm really glad you said all the things I was thinking about, the AI is not supposed to do the work for me, only help me. I started yesterday and I already feel the joy of writting coming back to me, I hope it works, after so many failed attemps of writting on my own, having a buddy to help me sounds awesome. Liked and subbed, great content! PS: Algum brasileiro conhece sites ou apps que tenham essas mesmas funções desses que ele listou no video, mas para o Português?

One tenant of journalism I learned is… Simple words, Simple Sentences, Simple Paragraphs. Go through each individual word chatgbt puts out and replace each word with a simpler word option. Next simplify each sentence. Lastly, simplify each paragraph. Just doing that alone will make a HUGE difference in making the content both more original and more accessible for the reader.

That might work well for journalism but probably not true for fiction stories?
@@a866903 Well, Hemingway's whole schtick was to make fiction writing a lot more like journalism writing, so there's that
Thanks.
Great Idea, Thanks !!!
I can't tell you how much I appreciate this video. Demographic designer but just getting started with KDP and seriously have spent about 6 months at this point just getting to read contracts and know exactly what's legal and what's not legal. I'm playing around with AI but I would never use the words or the images without serious changes.
I watched a video of that somebody did that was called you know how to use Ai and publish a book in 60 minutes. She literally put in like "a rabbit goes to the woods" and then AI generated a whole thing. She went to Canva and copy and pasted it. Didn't even read it!
Then she went to an image AI thing and said "fox in the woods" or whatever. She took every image that came up and downloaded and pasted it into canva. No one style no nothing. One of the pages was divided into quarters and each of those quarters contained an image that she had created in AI that had a fox in the woods and had nothing to do with each other.
When back and created an image that was fox in the woods threw it on the cover asked AI what the title it and that was that. She showed it and it was a horrible nightmare. But she ended her video with you can do that now go publish it and make a million dollars. And of course thousands of comments of thank you very much, thank you very much... She never checked it for plagiarism she didn't check it for anything.
But of course it's not on Amazon that she's making her living it's on RUclips. What's the other thing is you can upload whatever you want but it doesn't mean anybody's going to buy it. If you have no five stars and you have three ones and they say doesn't make sense, people actually think that the next person will but it?
KDP is really culturally self governed. If four people hate your book, and nobody loves it, are the three five-star ratings I'll use the exact same words, nobody else is going to buy it. Period. Done.
But meanwhile all this horrible Ai text and AI generated images that are just awful (6 fingers on one hand) is clutter and noise on KDP for the people who are doing it the right way. I appreciated your video thank you very much. Starting to wonder if too often AI is writing RUclipss.
As a magazine layout person and graphic designer as well as 24 year adobe user, I cringe!
Thanks for not telling everybody it's so simple to become a millionaire.
😊
Yes, AI is being used to write YT scripts and everything else under the sun.
They used to say “garbage in garbage out”. Now with AI one can get garbage out without anything in….
I made it to the end with 7 pages of notes including one of topics in 3 categories selling well 🤠 I am very excited about this!
The outline feature of PaperGen has been incredibly beneficial for me. It organizes my thoughts in a clear and logical manner, which enhances the overall flow of my writing. I now spend much less time feeling stuck in front of a blank page and can focus more on actually writing. It feels like having a dedicated writing assistant that takes care of the structural work for me.
Really good stuff young man. You are the first to even suggest rewriting some of the content. The vast majority just said upload everything.
I think you’re tutorial was super great! It’s good advice to say don’t let ChatGPT replace your writing but to use it as a tool. It does come up with some good workable content for that “writer’s block". I would love to see a tutorial from you that goes into how to publish books with KDP without buying something and what tips and tricks you may have. I found it pretty difficult to understand the publishing part and creating the covers without buying some other publishing tool to help. Can’t wait to see your next vid! ❤
Thank you for not putting out false information 🙂 This is great 👍🏼
watched a dozen of his videos and this one has a different level of value.
You are such a good communicator. It bugs me when people somehow edit out all natural breathing spaces and it makes it hard to listen to. I get so much out of your talks and don't need to pause for comprehension. Masterful!
considering he is flat out lying these methods do not wok you will still get flagged. he isnt helping anyone just himself with the clicks
Thanks Sean, I really appreciate your work and thorough video.
Thank you for your content! I have worked as a Certified Pharmacy Technician for over 23 years, so well over a decade too long! Due to life circumstances it was my best option. Circumstances have changed and I am dead set on becoming my own boss! I started watching You Tube video to make basic household and automotive repairs that saved me so A Lot of $$$, but now I am utilizing You Tube to make money! It hasn't happened yet, but thanks to influencers like you I am well on my may to do so! Thanks again!
Thank you, Sean!
You can do it
I‘m so pumped about your generosity of sharing your knowledge Sean, it shows how great of a spirit you are. Thank you so much, you‘re helping a great deal. Best wishes from Germany. Marcell
Thank you! I'm using AI to edit and improve a book about my NDE, and love the idea of adding the word "unique" to the command.
Sean, this is what I needed to begin my process. Your explanations were thorough, affective in how to use Ai responsibly. Thank you 👍🏽
Wow, You just got another follower mate. How beautiful content you have put into this video. Hats off and a bundle of thanks, brother.
That is very good advice. I'm just starting to understand how to use ChatGPT for writing, and you hit all the key points I was seeking.
I write what i want the chapter to entail, ask it to write the general premise of the chapter in bullet points including: Setting and Context, Opening Hooks, Main Plot Points, Closing Scene, and Foreshadowing. And then use these bullet points to craft my own chapters with my own writing
This is prob the most valuable video on creating books with AI you answered so many of my questions that were gray areas to other RUclipsrs ❤
I always make sure not to miss ur video cause of the value you provide.. kudos man
Thanks!
Made it to the end and I learned a lot. Thanks
Hey there! Just watched the vid and gotta say, it's an absolute gem! The guy nailed it with the step-by-step breakdown of writing a book using ChatGPT. Loved how he pointed out those sneaky mistakes we all tend to overlook. Seriously, it's like a hidden treasure of writer's wisdom!
The best part? The dude made it super fun and engaging. I was hooked from start to finish! This video is hands down the best thing I've seen on the subject. Major props to the creator for sharing such valuable tips in such an accessible and entertaining way.
Amazing with neat clarity. I'm a non plubished author. I shall set the tone. Thanks.
Thank you so much! I totally want to “ keep” my voice as a writer. But time for generating the “ supplements” is exciting to keep the process going. I’m a sub and like your post- ty for no dramatic effects for a learning platform.: Just pointers , perfect.
You're a Top G, sir. Thank you!
I had just asked Siri to look up how to use ChatGBT and a moment later I got your notification about this brand new video from you. Thanks again for putting out these great freebies!!!!!
Haha perfect timing!
I made it to the end and it was a nice one but need to go through it over and over again for a better understanding. Thank you so much
Jane from Uganda
With markets tumbling, inflation soaring, the Fed imposing large interest-rate hike, while treasury yields are rising rapidly-which means more red ink for portfolios this quarter. How can I profit from the current volatile market, I'm still at a crossroads deciding if to liquidate my $125k bond/stock portfolio
infact, ever since Coronavirus, I've been in regular communication with financial examiners. Nowadays, buying moving stocks is quite easy; the trick is knowing when to buy and when to sell. The section and leave orders for my portfolio are made by my counsel. accumulated more than $550,000 from a $150,000 savings that was initially stale.
Productivity never happens by chance; it is always the result of careful preparation, dedication, and consistency. I thank God for my advisor, Yuval Eric Brokman; with his assistance, I am now financially solid, earning between $10,000 and $25,000 every week.
Would you mind recommending a specialist with a variety of investment options? This is extremely rare, and I eagerly await your response.
As Yuval Eric Brokman is a highly sought-after counsel, he is actually the one who directs me. Nonetheless, you can try your luck. Just leaving his phone number would not be appropriate. he may be lying about, but if you Google his name, you can view his website.
Google his name⤵
As you read this... Thank you for BEing a joyous blessing in our Life.
One of the best videos on writing a book using chatgpt. Thanks for sharing your wisdom💜
When I know what should happen but I can't find the inspiration to get the chapter on paper I will show it my previous chapter, then ask to "write the following scene in my style:" and i'll describe what needs to happen and boom. I can move on to the chapter that I AM inspired for. It works like magic to get beyond the scenes you are otherwise stuck on for who knows who long (we all know this can be hours to years)
(you can also tell in general lines what you want to happen or where it should move towards and then ask it to write you a bulletpoint outline (and make it more interesting, for example) if you are stuck on HOW to get to the next point) 😊
This is not what a real writer does. You are not a writer but an imposter,
This is an amazing and real video. It is awesome and full of very useful content. I've been publishing for years and I've just started with chatgpt. You probably saved my Amazon account. Thanks!
As a writer, it is so interesting to see how others might use ChatGPT. I like how you've structured this video & your insights into book production, especially around how you can improve the quality of content. Thanks!
Here's a way to improve the quality of the content: WRITE THE DAM BOOK YOURSELF. Jesus, how lazy are people going to GET??
I have no desire to write a book, but this was still fascinating and really helpful information/ways of thinking overall. Awesome, thank you
Google does NOT punish you for using AI generated content. Originally they did but they changed their stance. As long as the content is factual and provides value they will not take action. And depending on the content Amazon will not block your publication. I have two ebooks that were largely written with AI and they are fine. Yes, you need to fact check and make sure you're providing legit info.
I’m not pulling random claims out of my ass. Google officially says AI content is allowed, but they also did an algo update after that announcement that killed lots of sites with purely AI written articles as well as seems like you can’t monetize your site via adsense if site content is 100% AI. So basically Google is officially saying it’s ok, but the reality is they don’t like it if people spam AI content. Amazon is same. I’m sure you can use AI as an assistant but if you just copy paste AI content which is often crap, that will be an issue in the long run even if you have no problem now.
Yes, people fail to understand that each content generated by chatgpt is paraphrased and original. Using those paraphrasing tools even makes the content weird and somehow not sweer.
I don't think amazon will hold people responsible for using AI unless your book is not highly qualitative.
People are cashing out writing nonfiction books with chatgpt and let me be Frank with you, if you know how to use chatgpt in a best way, it it even more reliable than human written content
@@SeanDollwet if it can't detect AI, for example most of my content is AI generated, BUT, none of the detectors show it more than 10% generated, it really shouldn't be a problem. You need to change your prompts. I get it as it may be archivablw somewhere and at some point checked. But if, by current technology, it comes back as 90% human content, it's what it is. Just for fun, a lot of my content that I created myself, from scratch averages like 50% AI and even my old college assays from like 20 years ago come up as 50% AI haha. You need to add the last stage of rewrite to rewrite in human voice. (A little more complicated than that. But it only took me a couple hours to create the structure for a prompt that generates human content back in January, and it's been spitting out human voice content ever since).
@@SeanDollwet It was the other way around. They killed sites first, then revoked their stance. They were against it at first and demonetized sites. Now they will not. I do not think you're pulling random claims out of your ass. Many people read one thing and that was their understanding. Most people still think AI content is against the rules. I agree that if you copy and paste without verifying it you can get crap but it does depend on the subject. You can have ChatGPT write code and it will most likely be bad code, if you have ChatGPT write a blog post about the Keto diet it will most likely be factual and correct. As long as you are providing value there is no issue.
@@muhammadsamanja7502 Agreed.
Excellent !, I’m agree with your approaching and respect to the writing task as a human creation. It is the correct manner to use AI.
So far the video that gave me so much encouragement, thank you Im starting to write a book. Thanks for the ideas and tips
This is my first time enjoying your RUclips channel. Great content! Looking forward to hearing more from you! Your video was so informative. Thank you so much!
Thank you how kind of you . This makes my heart smile , blessing to you 💗. From uk
I found your video useful & informative. Also purchased KDSPY plus another product from Publishing Altitude using your link. Next I'm going to use the Spanish translation link soon. Thanks.
Quilbot really helped me tinker my generated writing. It also has a grammar checker too.
Hey, I just wanted to tell u I thought this was one of the better videos for this subject that I've seen. I'm a writer with a massive mental block and usually wouldn't think to use chatgpt.
I'd always been able to just put my hands on the keyboard and create a world with almost no effort at all. It was like I just could see into another dimension and all my characters were real people to me, I still feel that way.
I had always been sick, in fact I couldn't go to school, thankfully I always loved learning and so I sought out and consumed information. Im autodidactic, self taught on everything, but folks always think I went to college. I dunno if that says more about me or the education system, lol.
In my mid 20's I became even more ill, and slipped into a coma. Septic shock. I should NOT have survived medically, and last year I survived my 3rd septic shock coma. Not fun. 2 steps forward, 3 steps back.
Anyhow, it's been hard to recapture that ease with which I used to write. I keep trying to find something that will help me find that place where u create like breathing, without must thought, and ease. U never come out of a coma the same way u went into it. U see the world differently, I also had NDEs each time so in some ways I've gained.
So I have am 42 now and disabled, I was always a novelist but I've recently wanted to write a workbook on self advocacy for adults and kids.
I don't usually wanna use AI for creative writing but since I am always looking for ways to help me with this mental BLOCK ur video caught my attention.
It's the first video on the topic that wasn't about avoiding writing that I've seen. I don't wanna avoid it, I wanna get back to it!
I would love to be able to make even a little money, as it is my brother is my caregiver and I survive on so little. Disability is about 800 bucks a month and trust me NO ONE disabled wants to be. Welfare isn't a prize. U can't even survive on that without housing aid...
I'd be happy if I made nothing on it, if the advocacy workbooks help someone. Especially the one on how to advocate for a child. I know so much about the topic because of my personal experiences.
Anyhow, I'll take a look at ur other videos. Writing is my passion, it sucks knowing what u can do but not being able to make it happen.
Blessings and Peace
This was great! Thank you. I'll be watching more of your info and take your training!
Bought Grammarly Premium and did exactly as you suggested (several times) and EVERY time AI was detected as 100%!
Only difference now to before watching your vid is I have Grammarly Premium 🤷🏼♂
Thanks for setting it straight, Sean.
Oh boy, what a goldmine this video is. Thank you very much. subscribed immediately
Dude, that was a great video. Your ideas were well thought out and provide a real path forward. Thank you very much for that!
Thanks for the clarity.
I think chat is brilliant for ideas and understanding your audience. Would you make a video on how to use midjourna correctly and safely for kdp purposes? How to create coloring pages or illustrations for books or covers?
You are doing God's work by helping us, i.e., other writers out. Tks so much.
The paragraph I wrote was 86% generated apparently. 😂 is this a compliment or an insult?
Thank you for this tutorial and the pointers. Grammarly has become a savior and helped fully round out my thoughts I was trying to convey.
Thanks, Sean. Great video as usual, chock full of detailed useful info!
I made it to the end. Great content. I really enjoyed the video.
That was very helpful and well put together, thanks for taking the time to make this video, for us beginners .
I'm currently using it for fanfiction. I know it sure does love using "artifacts" in stories
What I like about chatgpt is that it writes better than me. I bought a couple of books to research more about this AI tool and they have been helpful. On the other hand, I work with literary resources to give a better meaning or embellish the idea or concept I want to express, for example, hyperbole, simile, personification, hyperbaton, etc etc. What I had not included in my repertoire is Grammarly, I have the free version, but I must upgrade.
Excellent video. Concise, factual, and a step by step process.Thanks, Harry
Step 2: in other words, 'AI' should stand for 'Augmented Intelligence', not 'Artificial Intelligence'.
Augmented “I”.
You’re amazingly brilliant 🙏🙏🙏✨
I remember a writer giving advice that it’s ok to write drunk or high as long as you edit sober. You have to make the text make sense when you’re at your most sensible. I’m thinking at this point writing with AI is probably similar.
Generates text may be useful but it should still be considered a rough draft. You still have to make sure you have a quality document at the end.
The generated text may look superficially ok like cool looking generated images. But before publishing images you want to take a close look and make sure the person doesn’t have branching fingers or two upper lips. Generated text can produce similar kinds of errors but they may be harder to spot if you’re generating text outside your knowledge area. So special care should be taken.
Yeah, just new to Leonardo AI, and for lack of an idea I said show me NY Giants WR scoring TD. I got a guy running down the field and the ball mysteriously floating next to home, another one he going up for the ball and I swear his left leg is coming directly out his butt! and another just gave me a running football player in a uniform, not NY Giants-like. The last one that I keep was decent, but the defender had 3 legs chasing the guy!
Ran out of MidJourney credit. I was lucky because if you got premium ChatGPT you can through joining Leonardo quickly, I was approved the next day. That's pretty when you take into account everybody not wanting to pay MidJourney prices and looking for the best alternative.
I got a lot to learn using Leonardo AI, I have to learn how to prompt correctly to get the right picture, which is not easy to do, the two lips you mentioned. I had a little fun I like Leonardo AI
Another problem is that if you do not rewrite the text yourself, you have ZERO legal claim to copyright. AI software cannot own a copyright, but neither can you claim its work as your own. (Heads up: Claiming to have written something you didn't is called "plagiarism," whether a machine wrote it or not, and it's still unethical regardless of what you call it.)
And yes, at this point, AI is not a great writer and needs a LOT of help.

Thank you for creating and sharing real content !
Thanks sean. You impacting lives!
Excellent video Sean. Very informative and helpfull. Thanks for putting it up.
So glad I found your Channel.... I now know how to proceed. Thank-you for being 'real'.
I'm sure other writers have noticec but ChatGPT doesnt really write very unique or interesting stories. However, It is amazing at helping you overcome writers block and continue writing.
Love the content. I did try some of the tricks you suggested and even then, the content is labeled as 100% AI generated. It’s not even list format but paragraph formats. I even went in to rewrite the entire sentence by combining the concepts of sentences together and Originality is still saying it’s AI content. Don’t know if that’s just how good I am or how sensitive the detection is,….. lol
Everything I’ve check in the last week says 100%. Even my 100% original content I made up just to check to see if it was messing with me.
Me too
Originality has a chrome extension that shows live writings. That’s probably the most accurate way to check
@@SeanDollwet is the live writing deducted from the credits in the originality account? Or do you have to run it separately to do it?
@@SeanDollwet oh thank you! I’ll look into that. I’m interested to know the answer to Davy’s question, too.
Your content is amazing Sean!

I truly enjoyed the video. I liked and subbed. Keep up the great work.
Great content in the video, Sean...very helpful. Thanks for sharing. Just the information on Grammarly alone is essential.
Thank you!!!! You actually confirmed my thoughts.
Amazon KDP's policies and guidelines do not specifically mention AI-generated content, and there have been no issued statements prohibiting or permitting its use on the platform.
Just because there was no official statement about it doesn’t mean there won’t be in the future, and publishing books before the official statement does not make it safe
We can't do away with AI as we can't do away with computers. Prompt is the key while using aI
@@SeanDollwetIs it okay if we use chatGPT to write a book description on KDP? Is it safe?

When it comes to writing on ChatGPT, nobody really discusses the "About the Author" page. Should we include such a page in our book? If we do, how should we introduce ourselves? We don't have an educational background directly related to many of the books we plan to publish in the future.
Oh, you mean you're asking if you should tell people you didn't actually write the book? Yeah, I think maybe you should do that.
@Serai3 I don't get your where your anger??? is coming from. People get ideas of what they would like a novel to be about. However, they can't write the story for personal reasons that they don't find imperative, to tell. So, they hire a ghost writer to turn the Ideas of each and every chapter into descriptive words/sentences. The same thing Chat gpt does... just for free.
@@Emma19clever point
I am a professional editor who has worked both in traditional publishing and freelance.
Traditionally, for a fiction novel, you get a little blurb on the back of the book/on the inside back book sleeve about yourself, which should be shorter than the book plot summary blurb. A few SHORT sentences is a good limit for that.
For non-fiction, IF your bio is relevant to the subject, work up the same short "back of the book" bio, and another for inside the book as an actual page of text. That should also be short-- no more than about 2/3 of the page.
Have a few pro editors look it over to give you feedback (on content, as well as spelling). For your bio, just like your book summary blurb, you want it to be VERY refined and perfected. You need it to be able to SELL yourself, so pay a few humans $40-$50 (USD) each to see how it sounds to human ears.
@@Emma19 Wow, you must be scared of everybody if you thought I was angry. I was just asking the logical question. If a book is "written" by AI, then it isn't written by a PERSON. Thus it's a good idea to tell people that, especially given how utterly crappy AI writing is. I'd be pissed if I bought a book thinking a real person was behind it and all I got was a garbled mess put together by a robot.
This is very helpful, thank you!
Wow, Phenomenal video. i learned so much.
This video was so informative, i have to subscribe to your channel right away. Thanks learn few new AI portal 👍👍
Thank you, this so helpful. Thank you thank you so much.
EXCELLENT COUNSELING FOR DOING IT RIGHT 🎉 THANK YOU!
Hey man, I had no idea this was possible, a friend came to me talking about using AI to help him create a D&D campaing (yeah, we are nerds) and it dawned on me that maybe I could use it to try to write a full novel. I'm really glad you said all the things I was thinking about, the AI is not supposed to do the work for me, only help me. I started yesterday and I already feel the joy of writting coming back to me, I hope it works, after so many failed attemps of writting on my own, having a buddy to help me sounds awesome. Liked and subbed, great content!
PS: Algum brasileiro conhece sites ou apps que tenham essas mesmas funções desses que ele listou no video, mas para o Português?
It worked for me to copy and paste it as it is. I published it on amazon and sold some copies of that book.
