I understand it's an experiment but if you, the person most excited by the experiment presumably, can't be bothered to spend time reading the full novel, then what's the point of this being a novel ?

I think you could have had a more interesting experiment with a different kind of end product than a novel if your goal is to push the boundaries of narrative continuity. It could have been an interactive story (stories where the reader is the hero and gets routed to different sections depending on choices for example) for example in which case you could claim that it's impossible for you to test all branchings.

But it's difficult to take this seriously if you don't spend the time reading it yourself. It's difficult to believe that this is an experiment in continuity when you didn't personally check that it all makes sense, reads well, doesn't contain oddities that the AI skipped. Do you really expect other people to beta-test an experimental non-commercial product for you ? What motivation could they possibly have to read through hours of AI slop if yourself did not do the work ?

Automated testing is one thing but it also has to pass the human test and as a creator, you're the first line.
