How to Use A.I.

TO WRITE AND ILLUSTRATE MORE CONTENT


FOR YOUR BOOKS AND PRODUCTS!
About Me…
• Been creating digital & physical products online for 15 years.
• Created nearly 200 courses plus 100’s of other videos.
• My wife and I own a brick-n-mortar Pop Culture store and
website called Nerdvana Outpost (NerdvanaOutpost.com).
• Graphic design professional in 1993 & have designed nearly
600 book covers & magazines including
several New York Times Bestsellers.
• Pro and commercial photographer.
• Managed a commercial printing company.
• Have two daughters & five grandkiddos!
In This Training…
• How the Latest AI-Based Technologies Are Changing Writing
and Illustration Creation.
• AI-Generated Content and Copyright.
• Can AI Robots Actually Write Good Fiction and Non-Fiction?
• Stunning AI-Generated Illustrations Anyone Can Create!
• Leveraging AI-Generated Content for Your Projects.
• And Much More!
The Opportunity…
• The challenge with creating ANY type of information
product is producing the actual content!
• Need art created for a book or project?
• Use Public Domain art.
• Purchase stock art.
• Hire an artist.
• Create the art yourself.
• Those methods certainly work but CAN be expensive!
The Opportunity…
• Need written content on a specific topic?
• If writing is easy for you, GREAT…but what if it isn’t easy for
you? Then what?
• Find Public Domain content to tweak and use.
• Research the topic and then craft it into a presentable written
article, chapter, book, etc.
• Record yourself talking and then transcribe the audio (don’t forget
the editing process).
• Hire a writer on Fivver or Upwork.
The Opportunity…
• AI-Based algorithms are now being applied to the image
creation and writing processes.
• The current state of the technology is exploding.
• Two Congressional Hearings on the safety and implications
of the technology!
• Many major news organizations use AI on a daily basis and
you don’t even know it (Associated Press, Forbes,
Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, and others)!
AI Text Technology…
• Natural Language Generation (NLG) – A technology that
transforms data into clear, human-sounding narratives—for
any industry and application.
• GPT-3 – Generative Pre-trained Transformer 3 is an
autoregressive language model that uses deep learning to
produce human-like text. As the successor to GPT-2 created
by OpenAI, GPT-3’s full version has a capacity of 175 billion
parameters compared to 1.5 billion used in GPT-2.
AI Image Technology…
• Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) – A machine
learning (ML) model in which two neural networks compete
with each other to become more accurate in their
predictions. As the feedback loop continues, the generator
will begin to produce higher-quality output.
• Neural Style Transfer – A class of software algorithms that
manipulate digital images, or videos, to adopt the
appearance or visual style of another image.
The Public Domain Connection…
• A HUGE question I had about AI-Generated content
regarding copyright protection.
• Are works generated using AI protected by copyright or are
they in the Public Domain?
• Here is what the US Copyright Code has to say:
• The Copyright Act protects “original works of authorship.”
[17 U.S.C. § 102(a)]. To qualify as a work of “authorship” a
work must be created by a human being.
The Public Domain Connection…
• While the original output IS in the Public Domain, by adding
our own creative expression to the result DOES qualify it for
copyright protection!
• The focus is on creating a derivative work…meaning…adding
our own creativity to what was generated.
• I call this, “Intentional Creative Expression.”
• This approach is important for both AI-Generated text AND
illustrations!
Writing Using AI…
• There are AI options available for fiction and non-fiction.
• HOW the AI writes depends on a number of factors:
• Which Database set is being used (GPT2, GPT3, NLG).
• Do you want to write fiction or non-fiction?
• Need a few sentences or paragraphs, or more?
• Do you need research references?
• What are keywords related to your topic?
• For fiction, what are character and location names.
AI Writing Examples: Non-Fiction…
Growing Organic Vegetables
With Spring rapidly approaching, now is the time to begin planning your garden. And while some vegetables are easy enough to
grow, others might need a little help. If you follow the steps outlined in this article and begin planning now, you should be able to
have a garden full of organic vegetables by the time summer arrives. And with your increased knowledge of what it takes to grow
organic vegetables, next year’s garden should go even better.
The first step is planning what you want to grow. You can learn more about different types of plants by visiting your local nursery
or doing some research on the internet. Once you have decided what to grow, look up information on the best growing methods for
each type of vegetable. You can also find out which plants thrive in your area and how to prepare your garden.
After you have chosen what to grow, you will need to plan how much room should be devoted to each crop. It is also necessary to
determine if you want a permanent garden or if you want to use containers or raised beds. The latter two are more suitable for
smaller gardens, and they can be moved around as needed.
When planning your garden layout, consider how much light each plant requires. Most vegetables require six hours of sunlight per
day in order to grow well. Also, keep in mind the amount of space required between rows of vegetables for easy access and
maintenance. If you are using raised beds, you will need to think about how much time it will take to fill and refill the beds with plants.
You should also decide what type of soil you want to use in your garden. If you follow Organic principles, the best option is to use
a good quality compost and add nutrients and minerals as needed throughout the growing season.
AI Writing Examples: Fiction…
The Dragon Stone:
Darfin sat at the roots of Oakfury fingering a recently discovered rock on his lap. The odd-shaped stone was covered with inscriptions of unfamiliar
symbols. Little did Darfin realize just how significant and terrifying his seemingly random discovery would become.
The Dragonborn clan had crossed The Shallow Ford a week ago. Their home had been invaded by a clan of Vikings and in the ensuing battle many
had fallen. A young warrior named Haldric bravely took his remaining kin south to the more protected Fosgard forest where he could gather more
members of Morrigan’s brood.
The battle had been harsh and the legion of dragons fled to the skies to regroup for an almost certain attack. The clan was forced to leave a
number of their dead behind as it was not possible to carry the dead back to their fortress.
The foul, low-lying Vikings had retreated as well. They had prepared an ambush point from which to attack the remaining dragons.
“Darfin,” his mother’s urgent voice called from deep within the woods where she was scavenging for food. “It seems the Vikings have left us some
traps. The last of the dead have not been taken and the vultures are circling…” She could not finish the sentence, but instead broke out into tears and
Darfin quickly ran to her.
The short warrior thought for a moment, rubbing his chin and then turned to his mother with a look of determination in his eyes. “I know where to
take them,” he said, “I was watching father working on a forge when I was a child. He was always talking about reforging the mythical dragonslayers’
sword. I think I can find the place with little difficulty.”
His mother nodded and helped him gather up the bodies. He was able to find the forge, but it was in bad shape. There had been little time to work
on it and now it was mostly covered with vines and decaying leaves. It had only been abandoned maybe a decade before and the tools the smith had
used were still there, awaiting his return.
How We Are Using It…
• Here are a few AI-Written articles from our Pop Culture site:

• https://nerdvanaoutpost.com/collections/anime
• I am also using it to write articles for a new business venture
and fiction for a few new story ideas!
• Typically stick with word counts of under 1,500 words.
One AI Writing Option…
• The AI written examples were created using ShortlyAI.com
(https://www.shortlyai.com), which is based on GPT3.
• Writes both fiction and non-fiction.
• Need a plot and a seed sentence.
• We will use a fairytale plot generator to see what kind of
story we can come up with.

creating art-based products like posters, cards, apparel, etc.
• Here are some of the types of art you can create using AI:
• Photorealistic Portraits and Landscapes.
• Fantasy Landscapes.
• Fantasy Portraits & Full Body Characters.
• Cartoon Variations of Portraits.
• Anime Characters and Beasties.
• Art in Different Styles.
