How to write a book with AI [step-by-step guide]


Listen Later

I’m joined by Justin Welsh, a 7-figure Solopreneur & Creator, where we dive deep into how we would build an AI-powered book empire and the opportunities and challenges that AI brings. 

1) AI-powered book empire 📚

Greg's step-by-step process:
• Use Claude/GPT-4 to brainstorm book concepts
• Analyze Amazon bestsellers with Jungle Scout
• Generate detailed outlines with AI
• Use Grammarly & Hemingway app for editing
• Leverage Bookstat for real-time sales data

2)  The rise of AI brings opportunities AND challenges 
• AI will devalue most content, making it harder to stand out
• Top 1% of creators may earn 100x more due to increased demand for quality
• Early adopters can capitalize on AI-powered content creation
• Long-term success still relies on unique perspectives and staying power

3) Creator-led businesses: The new frontier 
• Example: Midday Squares
• Buying products as a "tip" for valuable content
• Stand out in a world of commoditized products by becoming a person people want to support
