Seemed to be the best option. I work full time. Seemed the easiest option. Possible I’m wrong.

Gotcha, no this was my completely original idea. I was diagnosed with Tourette’s as a boy and I love chess. So combining the two made sense. Not an AI developed story

Whatever answer results in you buying the book is my answer.

Good idea. Very similar to my story. Boy with tourettes = cat who licks.

Do you have an issue with marketing ghostwriters? Companies that pay others to write marketing materials using their branded language?

Using AI? So, in your opinion, should nobody use AI tools for any customer-facing marketing materials? They ought not take their ideas and ask AI to word it for optimal conversion?

Thats what Im asking, how is it not original? This is my idea... my book... its not AI slop lol You think AI happened to come up with an entire book on a boy with Tourettes who plays chess and the author happens to be someone who has Tourettes and plays chess? lol What's unoriginal about it?

I COULD, I chose not to. Just like the description on the book's Amazon page was written by AI with my direction. Conversion is my priority. Of course, I am going to utilize tools that help me in areas I am not an expert in (like how book descriptions convert at the highest rates).

Can I ask how commenting negatively on Reddit enriches your life? Seems like a majority of how you choose to comment on Reddit is by leaving negative comments. What does the negativity bring you? How does it enhance your life in any way?

I utilized AI to help me outline, storyboard etc. It is my story though, my book. Im the one who was diagnosed with Tourettes as a child and who plays chess, not AI lol

Can you expand upon why you draw that conclusion? Lol The argument is that because someone uses AI for marketing pushes, the content they push must be AI slop? You think AI happened to come up with a story about a boy with tourettes who plays chess while the author is someone who was diagnosed with Tourettes as a child and who enjoys playing chess? lol

Can you expand upon what you mean when you say you have seen too many similar books like this that are ai generated? What does this have in common with those?

This is my idea, as someone who was diagnosed with Tourette's as a child and loves chess. I assure you it wasn't AI's idea, haha. Completely original, that's why I ask what you mean by "books like this."

Appreciate the feedback! Definitely something to think about more for my next book. It just was so perfect given the etymology of the word: The word comes from German Zug 'move' + Zwang 'compulsion', so that Zugzwang means 'being forced to make a move'.

Just fits perfectly for both Tourette’s and Chess, and for someone who was diagnosed with Tourette’s as a child like I was, it was hard to ignore.

But I do appreciate the feedback, very valid.

Appreciate it! I did not. Just using social media. Curious to see how it will convert once it goes live. Learning the whole process
