Play HN: Give me a kids story, get a book [pdf]
I'm working on an app that generates illustrated children's automatically.
And I'm running out of ideas to test the generation output so I thought this could be fun.
You send me a story, I'll reply with the book, fully illustrated in PDF.
Might even make a Christmas gift?
I just ask you to rate the output 1-5 (imagine it had cost you 1USD to make)
- ofcourseyoudo 2y agoWhat kind of format (how much text, how many pages, should there be descriptions of the illustrations or does your app make those assumptions based on the text?)?
- guico 2y agoI just need a story line. Write as much or as little as you'd like. Describing the characters helps making it more personal... and the result will always be more impressive in that sense.

- brudgers 2y agoThere was a computer that wrote stories. It made people forget how to write stories themselves. The rest is like Canticle for Leibowitz. But for children. Good luck.

- guico 2y agoYeah, apparently. This was done with gpt-4o. Will try claude-sonnet at some point next week, it's supposed to be better. At least in terms of being more "creative" not sure about getting this kind of reference.
- brudgers 2y agoIt only matters if you care about the actual writing. Using an AI to write usually means someone doesn’t.
