Writing a book using AI, with Clarke Ching

/

I read a book that was written with AI, and I enjoyed it it. What’s more, I’m going to recommend that you read it, too.

There’s something I never thought I’d hear myself say. I’ve been actively avoiding tools like ChatGPT and Perplexity, and rolling my eyes at those who claim their “Brand New AI App Creates Best-Seller Quality AI Courses And Automated Course Websites

In Less Than 60 Seconds” (yes, that is a quote taken from an actual sales page).

So when I came across a discussion of how Clarke Ching wrote his latest book with the help of AI… well, you can imagine my thoughts about it.

But I’ve read another of his books. He’s smart and entertaining, and I knew he wouldn’t let any AI tool lessen his impact, so I was intrigued. After reading his latest book, “The Bottleneck Detective,” I knew I had to get him on the podcast to talk about his process. It’s not what you might think, and the results really do speak for themselves.

Clarke Ching is known professionally as “The Bottleneck Guy.” He’s an author, speaker, mentor, and consultant who specializes in helping busy leaders and their teams identify and overcome bottlenecks to improve productivity and reclaim their time.

I’m happy to have him join me on this episode for a behind-the-scenes look at how—and why—he worked with two popular AI tools to write his latest book.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • Two reasons Clarke believes his book is actually better for having used AI as his writing partner.
  • Whether or not he chooses to disclose that the book was written with the help of AI, and why.
  • Practical, useful ways you can work with AI to create content.
  • The two tools Clarke used, and why he chose them.
