Ask HN: Has anyone used AI to write a full-length book?

I'm a software developer who published a technical book with Wrox years ago. The process was brutal—months of work, endless rewrites, lost plot threads.

Recently I've been experimenting with using AI as a writing partner (not just for drafts, but for maintaining consistency across chapters, tracking characters, generating outlines, etc.)

Has anyone else tried this seriously? I'm curious about: - What worked and what didn't - How you handled the "AI voice" problem - Whether you'd consider publishing something AI-assisted



yes, but this was with chat gpt 3 and it was horrible. lol


yeah. the bad old days. i am doing it with gemini 3 pro and OMG - wow. I mean it's mind blowing. I love Jack Reacher novels and can't get enough but they come out once a year or 18 months, so i created my own :) and it's actually really good to read. surprisingly good.


Yeah ai has come a long way in the past two years and we’re Only just beginning
