I'm sure most of you are using AI in some fashion by now. I'm curious what applications you are using and for what. I currently use ChatGPT occasionally for ideas on how to rephrase something, ChatGPT and Perplexity for research (I write about the New Orleans Saints) and also toy around with Nano Banana for book cover image ideas.

This has probably been covered already, but I do have a question. Audiobooks are quite expensive to produce, unless you can strike a royalty sharing deal. Not all non-fiction is attractive to narrators. I would prefer - as you suggest - to narrate my own, but find the technical challenges of producing something of quality to be too onerous. Much harder than actually writing the text! So have been testing some of the AI narration software and finding a little of it is surprisingly good. My question is whether this is truly accepted by the key platforms: ACX/Audible, Google and Apple Play, etc., if you don't use their proprietary AI programs. Your thoughts?

How are you (or would you be) using AI in your writing process?
