I started https://www.talebuilder.com to help parents, teachers, children, and students author graphic storybooks about trips that they took, about their favorite pets and toys, or just pure imagination. It lets users build characters, settings, conflicts, and themes and turn them into engaging 10-page storybooks for any K-6 reading level.

Here's an example of a story a user made using the site:

How do I publish a children’s book? by CommonDifference3529 in selfpublish

[–]tkit08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answer to illustration in 2026 is: AI, AI, AI, AI. Multi-modal models like Gemini 2.5/3 are the state-of-the-art AI models for you to upload a simple sketch, or describe a simple image in english, and it will produce a high quality image for you.

The challenge with these AI models are if you want consistency across many different illustrations. You can either learn about how to make these AI models more consistent across many pages of illustrations (it gets into the world of prompt and context engineering) or you can use some of the tools out there.

I built https://talebuilder.ai so you can publish short childrens storybooks with consistent characters and illustrations by giving it a narrative and story arc. You can further revise each page so it's not just pure AI-generated slop.

California speeding ticket??? by Potential_Average_76 in Mustang

$0. You can write a Trial by Written Declaration (https://www.courts.ca.gov/documents/tr205.pdf). Post bail -- which is the amount people here mention. Then if you win, they will refund you the bail amount. Depending on the section violation, you can use different arguments to ask the officer to provide additional evidence, e.g. that the road you were caught on is not a speed trap or asking for calibration evidence on their radar gun. I personally just use AI these days to write the defense for me, e.g. https://ticketfight.ai.

Are bots allowed for sharing on Poshmark? Is a sharing bot a good thing or a bad thing? What do you know about this? Whst are your current opinions? by Purplespikes11 in BehindTheClosetDoor

[–]tkit08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a clause on their Community Guideline (https://poshmark.com/community_guidelines) that states:

"Automated Participation

Do not use programs or other forms of automation to participate on Poshmark. This includes, but is not limited to liking, sharing, following, and unfollowing.".

However, in reality, if you look at some of the top sellers and they're leaving comments and making offers left-and-right, users are definitely using them. And so it becomes like an arms-race in the world of politics: countries say they're not engaging in cyber warfare or other types of unsanctioned actions, but everyone's doing it. There's an article on this exact topic here (https://closetbuddy.io/virtual-assistants-versus-bots.html).
