I've been using Ai for some time now, and if there is one thing I've learned it is this: HOW you ask. You might want to try again, this time specifically giving instructions to not write the review based on other reviews. After all, if you book was still unpublished and had no public reviews, Ai would have to start from scratch.
I've never tried it with anything extensive as a book, but I have certainly plugged in articles now and then and gotten some excellent feedback.
FYI for anyone using Ai for art, which I do a lot, it really matters "how" you ask.
Yup, there is one that you can send your novel to and they come back with analysis, but it didn’t work for me, just didn’t load, because I’m guessing they want me to use the paid version lol.
Just what I would have said, were I as versed in language and whatnot as a bot. I read it. It was a good book. Now husband Wayne has read the second one in the series and is reading the first, then he'll go ion to the last. Me? I like reading stuff in order. I promise to review on Amazon but I know I will agonize over it more than a bot. Even though bots can express surprise when serving coffee in a story, can they agonize over a book review or is that going to happen in a story only? :)
I find AI helpful but not with fiction. Perhaps a genre writer writing something with a fixed structure like Harlequin romances can make better use for it. Overall, if you want originality and intelligence AI isn't the place for it.
If you asked it to write a scathing review it would have no scraped data to reference, and it would random return aggregates of scathing reviews and insert your title and your novel's characteristics. If you asked it to provide an inscrutable review of your novel written by Bartleby from Melville, you could then ask it to turn it into a scene from Othello. I guess I'm not expecting true information from it, just teasing the ghosts in the machine.
Interesting idea and there may yet be a novel (new) response as these LLMs improve. I have no reviews of my work, so I might attempt to write a super prompt for ChatGPT and see if it can manage something…novel. I won’t hold my breath though.
I used one called Ask AI, but there is a program, Marlowe is the name I believe, that will analyze the whole novel, I haven’t done that one, but could be good
I do relate to your coffee choice a lot!
Good morning Alexander,

For sure, might try that!
This is a great idea! Too bad it needs other reviews to exist before it can get started

That is so cool thar you are both reading and I wonder how his perspective of the first will change!
Me too. because I've only read the first! Now I can't wait to finish the second.
Let me know!

Interesting ideas haha
Fun experiment. I do like the idea of it summarizing all the reviews on a product for me.
Its pretty cool!
I guess it's for anyone who's too lazy to read all of the other reviews. This sort proves how technology is just making us lazier.
haha yes
It was a good review, but I could see how it would take from another. Lol ☕️
hahah

Could be interesting
Cool idea but not surprisingly, AI does a polished paraphrase...
haha yes
AI is not artificial intelligence, as claimed but automatic information gathering as you’ve just proven.
Yup!
How cool, Alexander! Did you use ChatGPT? I want to use AI to analyze my new novel for marketing blurbs and tag lines.

Wonderful thank you!
That must have been interesting. A.I is not a person however. humans care A.I aggregates. Big difference.
Great idea!
Pretty fun!
As you mentioned, the review sounded familiar. A mash up of other reviews, I guess after that even reviews have tropes of their own.
Overall, it must have been fun for you. 😄
For sure, fun little experiment!
