1. Let's Begin: Hi, friends. I'm doctor Sabata and I'm going to be your
host for this course. The topic is ethical writing
using AI, but of course, I'll change the topic
when I launched the course and just to make it more marketable, as
you can understand. So I have written seven books, and I'm right now
working on my eighth. In this particular course, I'll show you how to use
AI tools free and paid. In this video, we
are going to see which particular tools
are we going to discuss. The tools that I have
written down for you here, they are open AI, Jan, voice memo, transcribers,
typing mind, and hugging chat. Of course, along
with typing mind, I can also add bold. They're all roughly the same. Let's start with Open AI first.
2. Project: But for this particular course, we are going to have a
project and the title is crafting compelling
content using AI tools. The main objective is that you use and apply the techniques and tools that I'm
teaching in this. For that, you may like
to do something like content creation
in which you can show how you did some AI
assisted editing or you did formatting and typesetting or how you designed
a book cover. In the final submission, you can compile your
written content, edited version, and
book cover design into a single project file. And you can include
a brief reflection of 250 to 300 words, summarizing your experience
using the AI tools, challenges you faced, and what you learned
from this process. While submission
requirements are given in detail
in the project s, there is no due date. That's why I have not inserted any due date because this is a course which you can
do at your own pace and submit whenever you'd like. The evaluation criteria
will be creativity, usage of tools, professionalism,
and the reflection. I hope you will do
a little bit of project work to get hands
on along with this project, the tools that I have shown, you can actually after
learning it once, you can rerun the entire
course at a slower speed, maybe at 0.75 and do the
things along with me and that will help
you learn how to do them actually. Thank you.
3. Crafting words: Okay, so this page is
the page for hatGPT. You can see it's
called chatgpt.com. Now here we can use any tool. This is completely free of cost. You can upgrade it to $20 a month if you want to
use advanced tools, but for simple writing,
we can do this. I'll give you a
small sample here, although we'll see how to
create and write subsequently. But here, let's say
we just want to create topic or a
title I can say, help me find a
title for my book, which is about using AI tools
for ethical book writing. Let's say what it says, and as you can see, it gives me a few ideas, AI powered writing, writing with AI ethical authors guide to
AI tools. I really like this. We'll continue using this, but it's just a demo that it's completely free of cost
that you can do it here. Now I'm going to just Control C, which is copy this because I want to show you
some other tools also, which you can use
either free or paid. But the point is that
they're very good tools. Let's go back to notion. Let's go to Jan. Now
I've installed Jan on my Mac and this is the icon. Let me click on this. Now, how is Jan very
different from others? This is the point I'm
trying to make here. Jan can be used
completely free of cost. When you install and open
Jan, you can go to the model, and here you can see I have
selected OpenEGPT but I can actually go and say on
device model and use ama. This is Lama 3.18 B. Please note that this is
slower than chat GPT, but it is very good and it
is free of cost completely. Here's the assistant
that we can write about. Here's the assistant.
Basically, the assistant is something that we give
as a generic instruction. Let me say that always write in a helpful friendly tone and
using this instruction, there's a completely
separate course for prompting and a
book for prompting. But in this, I'm just
talking that you can write any particular
agent instruction here. The model that I'm using
is the local model. Now let's paste the same thing, which is help me help me
find a title for my book, which is about using AI tools
for ethical book writing. Now, this is Lama 3.18
million instruct cir quarter. This is the version,
and I'll say G. Let us see what it does. Now it's starting model Lama this is the first
time it's starting so it's taking a
little bit of time. But you can see that this is a little slower than Open AI, but it will still give
you very good results. Let's see what it says. It's saying the author's guide, write smarter not harder, the future of writing, ethics, the AI powered writer's handbook,
writing with integrity. The responsible writers toolbox, the AI enhanced author from data to story and
ethics in action. For me, this tool is extremely good because especially because it's completely free of cost, Lama is an open source thing. So keep in mind Jan is the
one and Lama is free LLM. Now, for you, if
you do not wish to utilize or install Jan
in your local machine, you can still use Lama by going to ugingchat that's the third
one that we'll talk about. Let's go to our browser. We come to huggingface.co chat. This is the free version again, and I'll say new chat, I've created an account, but it's again free of cost
and what models it uses, you can change those models. This also can use OpenAI if
you want, but in general, we like to use any of
Lama's open source models. Now, this particular
model called Nemotron it's latest and very
popular and very strong. But in hugging chat, it also gives error
a lot of times. Once again, it's free of cost, but it does have errors. I can give it a shot for you. I'll just say this thing and be a friendly assistant save and we'll try to
go here and say, give the same instruction
as we gave earlier, help me find a
title for my book, which is about
using AI tools for ethical book writing.
Let's see what it does. So you can see, I'm still using Lama 3.1 70 billion instruct, which is much faster on
the Internet because the IT infrastructure is being hosted by Huggingchat
on the Internet, naturally it's state of the art, it's much faster compared
to my local computer. But you can see lot of
suggestions have been given. It has given 12 suggestions. Hugging chat is
another good example. Now, going back to notion, another thing I wanted to
show you was note book alum. This is still completely free. We'll go to Notebook LM and we'll create a new
notebook here. Now, Notebook L M is
a Google product. It is completely free, but it has something else. For example, it is not a typical LM which
will either go on Internet or give you
something on its own. In fact, the best way
to use it is to give it some kind of input
from your side. Let's see how we can give
it inputs from our side. Okay, so I have found an open source and legal
resource which I'm going to use. So I have opened
Project Gutenberg, which provides
copyright free books, and I have opened the Hound of Baskerwlls by Arthur Conan Doll. So what I'm going to do,
I'm going to download this book in a simple
plain text format. Yeah, here it is.
The complete book, I can actually just say
select and say Command C, and I'll just copy
the book completely. Now, I go back to
this notebook alum. I say copied text and
I'm going to paid text, and I'm going to
paste the text here. Now the entire book
has been pasted here, as you can see, I'll say insert. Now here, what
Notebook m is doing, it is going to process
this entire inserted text, and then I can use that
text to write anything. So let's see. We've
got pasted text here, which is about the
hounds of Baskervis. Here it is the hounds
of Baskervills. Now, this particular
way of doing work is very helpful for those people who are teaching how to write. Maybe if you are a person
who wants to teach, there is a certain
book in the course of English literature in
your school or college. You can upload that
book here and then just ask this one to
generate a study guide. I'll click on here. Now, you
can see it is generating. I'll pause the video for letting it to generate. It'll
take a minute or two. And here it has generated. It has generated a study guide, it has generated short
answer type questions. The answer key has been given, essay questions have
been generated, and the glossary key terms
have been generated. This it does automatically, and it will help you learn how to create
questions for this. This will help you help the students learn
about the book. This is one way of using it. The other forms are, of course, I can say a briefing
document in which it will give me a complete
brief of this particular. So why should I get that? I can generate a new book based on any of
my old books all. For example, if I don't do
fiction or nonfiction writing, what I do is I write
course material, so I can ask for a briefing
document which has created, as you can see on the screen. I can copy this entire material, which is a briefing document, and then go and create a new notebook in which
I'm going to paste this briefing and now I can utilize that briefing
to create something new. That is how Notebook
LM can be used. Remember, Notebook M has a
very different use case. It has a certain amount of ability to get the
text, the context, and the material from the resource that
you give it to it, and then you can ask questions or make
anything based on this. Let's say I ask it
a question that who is the protagonist of this book. If I'm going to ask a question, it's going to look at this. The protagonist of the book is Sella homes and it gives the bibliography that
from where has it found. It also talks about the
source of the highlights is home skepticism regarding supernatural
elements, blah, blah. You can see it has
given bibliography references to at every point. It is really good for those who actually teach using
certain literary material.
4. Transcriptions: Okay, so continuing and
going back to notion. So we have covered OpenAI, we have covered Jan, we
have covered hugging chat, and we have covered
notebook M. Now, what are the remaining things? One important thing
is voice memo. So if you are a user
of MacBook or iPhone, then what you get are
voice memos there. I voice memos, there
is a new feature. Hi, guys. I'm recording this in the month
of October 2024, and I'm really excited to give you this piece
of information. Now, earlier, I used to
hate typing my books. I already did it in seven, and I'm on my eighth
book right now. So I used to just dictate the book into some sort
of recording device, either a dictaphone
or later on iPhone. And then I needed to convert
that speech into text. I used to use some software
to get the text out of it, then edit that text and
then add it to my book. But now it has become
so simple with AI and the new feature
of voice memo in iPhone. As I'm showing you on
the side of the screen, if you use Voice memo
and record anything, the voice memo of iPhone automatically transcribes
it and I think it uses AI, but I'm not sure because the transcription
is pretty good. And then all I do
is I just copy it. Paste it into chat
GPT and say do spelling corrections and
grammar corrections, if any, and Walla the
whole chapter is ready. I just copy it and
paste it into Ulysses, which I use to write my book. So that kind of saves
me hours and hours. And I also don't have to sit in a really quiet room or
quiet place to dictate it. I can actually dictate it
anywhere in a noisy place. In fact, what I do is
I go to one corner of my office or in the
garden near my office, and I just go and
sit there as if I'm holding my phone to my ear as if I'm
talking to someone, and I'm dictating the book. And once it is done, voice memo has already
done the transcription for me, and it's wonderful. I would suggest for all
you writers who have to write so much that
try this feature out. It is going to save
you tons of time and effort and a lot of
editing work also. Now, for those of you
who do not wish to use or do not have the
voice memo ability to use, you can use a lot
of transcribers that are available
in the market, as an example, I use this. It's called Super Whisper, I'm not paid by
them or anything, and it is just one of many. All that these ones, most of these do are they are just sitting
on top of Open AI. And Open AI has a
module called whisper, which uses to transcribe whatever you speak from your empathy file into
a written text file. What happens is you
dictate anything, it goes from that to OpeneI gets transcribed,
the text comes back. They are as good as is memo
or even faster than that and its fidelity is really high and good,
so I'll recommend them. Why I'm mentioning super whisper here is because super whisper allows me to have
localized a AI. Once again, just like Jan, I need not go to the
Open AI and pay money. I can do it free, of course. I'll open Super Whisper here. So I have clicked
on its short form. It is right now recording and whatever I'm speaking,
it is recording. The moment I'll click
on its shortcut again, it will stop recording and
here it has stopped recording. Now you'll see that
it is processing. What Superhisper is
actually going to do, this is the first time, you can see that it has
given a result. Now this result has come completely from
my local machine. The AI has been downloaded on my machine and I'm
using it free of cost. I'm doing my entire
transcription of whatever I speak to write my books locally here without
sending it to anybody. Now, this can be very
useful for those of you who talk or want to transcribe
that data, which is, um, confidential and your
organization or somebody does not allow it to be sent outside your computer
or your network. You can use this
local model here. Remember, Jan and Super Whisper, they both allow you to
have local models on which you can speak and
transcribe your book. While hugging chat, it
goes to the Internet, but again, it is free
because it uses ama. Chat GP is also free,
but with limitations, then you can upgrade with
a $20 a month thing, Notebook ama will
completely take whatever resource you have and then you can ask
questions on it. You can create FAQs or study guide or the
briefing document. It is really helpful for those
of you who teach or who do research because it
also creates biography. Let's go back to Notion
and check what have we missed so we have not yet
discussed typing mind and bolt. These two icons that
you see on my screen, this is bolt and
this is typing mind. They are nothing except
wrappers sitting on top of either Open AI or any
other tool like Cloud. I have to have a paid
account with OpenAI, and that account can generate an API key which
I put in these tools. Therefore, instead of going
to OpenAI website every time, I have a local tool
in which I type, it goes through the API and comes back and gives
me the answers. These tools also you can use. Once again, disclaimer
that I'm not being paid by any of
these tools or anything, I just use them, so I'm
showing them to you. Let's see typing mind
a little bit here. In typing mind, here
I am on a new chat. The beauty of typing
mind is you can create as many agents as you want
and I'll talk about them. I have certain agents like
you can see a book writer, you can see an e book writer, you can see proposal creator, you can see
presentation builder. But the point is I
can create as many as I want and they also
provide a lot of things, they have a nutritionist agent in technology and
design in marketing, they have a market analyzer or a headline
campaign specialist. We can just use this. For example, this one
can talk to us about the same thing that
you were asking that helped me find
a title for my book, and let's see what
does this say? You asked me about
the target audience. Target audience are authors and writers and English teachers.
These are the audience. Now see how it has
generated pretty rapidly. As I said, this is
nothing except wrapper sitting on top of Open
AI agents we can use, and then we can have
a quick turnaround. All these tools and you can make a note of them, that's
perfectly fine. You can use any or all of them, Openei Jan Wise Memo
transcribers like Superhisper. Let me write down Super
whisper so you guys will have the ability to just copy this Superhisper Notebook
alm bolt and typing Mind. Now in the next video, let's see how to create agents.
5. Agent Creation: Hi. In this video, I'm going to show you
how to create an agent which is going to help you
write a complete book. Now, here is the
ethical conundrum. Should I write the complete
book written Should I have a book completely written by AI or should I give some
input of my own also. So I am not giving you the legal position here
or the ethical position here. But what I am going to teach in this session is how
to create an agent, which is going to help you
write the entire thing. It's up to you, which part
do you want to choose. You may already be having the idea of a title
in your head, so don't use the AI for that. You already know the
outline of the book, don't use the AI for that. Use the AI for the areas where you are either not
having any idea of what to write or you wish
to enhance your writing. I'll show everything
for agent here. Let's go and see
what is an agent. We'll use typing mind for
this because it is one of the easiest and best ways
to actually create agents. I'm opening typing mind and here we'll go to
agents and we'll say, create an AI agent. Now you can see this
whole thing opens up. I'm going to say the name
is book writing helper. The description is, and let me use the transcription
just to give a demo to you. This bot can help any author write a
book from end to end. You can see that
the processing will happen but it's doing a little bit slower than normal
because I'm also recording my screen on the same computer at the same time. But it has written
what I dictated. I can choose a category. Let's say we call it
technology, whatever we want. Um, profile picture is
completely optional. Then I have to write
a real prompt for it. Now, I understand that
a lot of you will not be very well versed
in writing a prompt. What we can do is we
can make another AI, write the prompt for us and
paste that prompt here. Let's go to Jan
for this purpose. Again, it's ama, it's local. Now I'm going to give
it the instructions. Here are the
instructions for it. Create a prompt for me, which I can paste in any AI
tool to create an agent. The agent that I want to create should help
me write a book. The agent should first ask me about what the
title should be. What should be the
theme of the book? What are the word limits? Then what is the outline of the book and then help me
write chapter by chapter. The first thing that the
agent should do is ask me the title and ask me if I know the title and if I
say I don't know the title, then it should offer to
help me to write the title. Same thing goes for
the next questions like the outline for the book, the agent should ask me if
I can write an outline. If I cannot, the agent should
help me write the outline. Once the outline is done, then the agent should help me write one chapter at a time. But before each chapter, it should ask me, what is the word limit
I have in my mind? What is the tone that
I have in my mind, and what is the kind of u any particular topics that
I want to include in that. Create a prompt for me. Now I've given it
a long dictation or whatever came to
my mind right now, but we are going
to optimize that because Lama is going to
create the real prompt and not bother about
some nonsense words that I've spoken or I've written it twice or thrice or see. You can see it's taking
a little longer, again, because I'm using
the computer right now for both the purposes for recording this as well as for processing the AI
model on my computer. So I have written this. I'll close the transcriber
and create a prompt for me, blah, blah, whatever I said. And let's see if
it can improve it. Yeah. So one more thing I can
show it to you here and I use bolt for that purpose
is I can select this text. This was a thoughtless
rant, so to say. I didn't really think
too much about it. The English was repetitive. There were no proper sentences. What I can do here is using bolt and I have a
shortcut for that, I can ask Bolt to say, simplify my writing
so that whatever I'm telling Lama is
also a little clear. I'll click on this. Bolt has thought about it and written, create a prompt, ask
for the book title, if unknown offer
help to create it, ask for the book's
theme and word limit, ask for an outline guide through each writing chapter by
chapter and asking for this. And let's see what
prompt Lama generates. You can see how
drastically Bolt has just converted my rant
into a specific points, how to create a prompt. Now we are going to
write the prompt. You see, we have used AI to convert my rant into
a bullet point list. Now, this bullet point list into a prompt and
the prompt will become a agent and that agent is going to
help me write the book. I hope I'm not made it too
complicated for you guys, but believe me, once
you start using it, you'll start to learn
that iterating through whatever AI AI has generated, iterating it through
several times will help you
improve the output. Now, here's a huge prom
that it is writing. Here's a prompt for this. Welcome to book
writing assistant. I'm here to help
you, blah, blah. Whatever it is writing,
I'm not liking it because it has not
understood what I wanted. So I'll just stop it. I'll probably go back
to bold or hat GPT, for all we know, we can go to hat GPT and ask it
the same content. I'm going to put my hair, and let's see what it does. Here's a structured prompt. Now it is writing a prompt. This is a long prompt, and now what I'm going to
do is I like this prompt. I'm going to just copy the
actual part of the prompt. Till here between the codes, copy it, go back to typing
mind and paste it here. Now the prompt part is done. I'll say override system instructions because
this is what I want. I'll go to the model
and parameters and I'll assign a
specific model. Right now, four oh
mini or four oh, they are good models
to work on it. I can actually give some
training files also here. But right now, I'll
avoid complicating it. This is as simple as it gets. Let's just save it and we'll see its performance
in the next video.
6. Reclaim your narrative: Okay, guys. By now, we had created this
book writing helper. This is sitting here and let's
use this particular one, LC chat now, it starts up, and I'm going to just push
some things out of the way. Yeah. Now let's say I have
to write a book and I say, I want to write a
I is fantastic. Do you already have
a title in mind? If not, we can brainstorm
some ideas together. So I'll say, I don't know. I can again rant. Let me rant. So I really don't know, but I want to write a
book in which probably, I want to tell people how not to fret over a lost relationship and move on in life and tell
them techniques how to move on so that they don't grieve for a long period of a
broken relationship, and they are able to do their daily tasks and routine and the job
should not get affected, their financial life
should not get affected. This is the kind of book
that I want to write. While it is processing, you can see that I've
just ranted something, whatever came to my mind, I had not planned this and what it is going to do is
it is just going to put my rant here and AI is going to help me figure
out a title for this book. I don't have to rack
my brains for it, so it's almost complete.
It has pasted it. I'm going to escape
and then I'll say sent. Let's see what AIs. It is already giving
me a list of titles. It has given me ten titles. I can choose these or I can
give me more. Let's see. Maybe we can say
rise from the ruins, reclaim your life after a hot break. Yeah,
it's a good one. I'll say I'm like three. It says great choice. Let's clarify the main theme. What are the core messages
that you are trying to give? You have power to
reclaim your life. Are you focusing on
emotional healing, practical life advice or
both and stuff like this. I had to give it a little more information so
that people know. I'll say I'm focusing on emotional healing,
practical life advice, and even and sustaining the job as well as
preventing financial ruin. That's my idea of that.
Let's see what it does. The core message it says that
based on what I've shared, your core message
could be something like you can heal emotionally, reclaim your strength,
maintain control, even after a devastating
emotional loss. Next step is word count
and book length goals. It says typical self help book tends to fall 50-70
thousand, but it can vary. Shorter self help
books around 30 to 40 K. Chapter length is this. Once we have agreed on
this, we can move forward. I'll say I agree
with your proposal. Okay. Now, it says, let's build the book outline. Here's a draft outline, so it's already generated
a draft for me. It's introduction
rising from the ruins, part one, emotional healing. Okay, sorry. I just flipped. Yeah. Chapter two is letting go, Chapter three is
rediscovering yourself. Then part two is
practical life advice, keeping your day to day
flow, building new habits, maintaining financial
and career stability, moving forward with confidence and conclusion. I
just like this. And if you don't like it,
you can say regenerate. Here's the button.
You can generate as many times as you
want till you are happy. I'll say I like it. Let's see what the AI is
doing because the aim of this course is to basically show what the AI
is doing for you. It says, fantastic. I'm thrilled that you like the outline with this
clear structure. We are well on our way to
creating a sorry about this. Focused and powerful book. Next step, writing Chapter one. Let's start with Chapter one. So initial points to consider
tone and word limits. Here we could break
down Chapter one, introduction, why
breakups hurt so much, the stage of breakup, how grief after a breakup is unique and foreshadow recovery. Foreshadow recovery, you
will get through this. Okay. So it has already
given me a proposal, how it will write and do
I agree with it or not? I'll say, I agree. I'm agreeing only to
show you as a demo. I don't mean to say that you get every chapter
written by the book. You can change anything in it, say you can say, Oh, maybe I'll say
something like this. I agree with one, two, and three, one,
two, and three. But for four and five, I want to I want to rephrase and remove the word grief and foreshadow. Now
let's see what it does. It says, got it. It is rewriting
it and on four and five, it is reworked and say, why breakups feel so personal and you've
survived the worst. What comes next? The
foreshadow word, which I objected
upon it is removed. So now till now you see, we are still preparing
to write the book. Now at this point, if you want to take over
writing yourself, it's great. But if you are the one who has done the work
till this stage, then maybe you want it to write some introductory chapter
and you can rephrase it. It's going to write
an introduction in Chapter one,
acknowledge the pain, why breakup hurt, stages
of breakup recovery, why breakups feel so personal
and you survive the worst. I'll say, go ahead. And you can see it has
started writing Chapter one. Chapter one, let's see how many words it
has written it had said it has written 300 words in Chapter one and it had proposed
approximately 500 words. If I don't like it, I
can say write more. Now in this two Y breakups hurt the emotion and
biochemical impact, it has written some
things in next steps. That's a solid start to
introduction in Section two. Would you like to review,
make adjustments or continue? I want to say in section one, there should have
been 500 words. But you wrote 300, re write and expand it. It's my slave. I'm going
to ask it to do anything. So it's saying, Okay,
so it's going to write more words in
the first part of it. There. Let's see how much words has it now written
in the introduction. It is up until this point. It has written 568 words. Bingo. I'm happy with that. I'm going to keep this chapter. Anyway, we are coming
to the conclusion of this particular video. What you have seen is I
have created an agent. I used AI multiple iterations.
First, I had a rant. That rant, I used to create
some prompt, that prompt, I put in the agent and
the agent now is doing a fantastic job of
asking me at each step, how would I like to write
this so so once again, I'm not recommending that you generate a complete book out of AI and just pass it on to people because
anybody can do that. What I'm recommending is use one or more parts of
the technology that I'm demonstrating to you here because this is
then going to help you generate some good
parts for the book, maybe a good outline, maybe a good chapter word
limit understanding. For example, I never knew, and I'm telling and
I'm confessing it right here on this video that typical self help
books are 40,000 to 70,000 words in range. I would have actually thought
more like 25 to 30,000 words because who wants to read 70,000 words for self help. But then it knows
better than me. I might have done some
Internet search also. So it helped me realize that, what should be the ideal
length of my book? If it is less than 40,000, it will be considered as a
mini book or a small one. So that is knowledge for me even while
creating this course. You see how we can create agents and learn
at the same time. Let's see you in the next video.
7. Cover design and formatting: Guys. In the last
video, what did we see? We have already done
creating agents, finding book titles, creating a book outline,
writing chapters. Of course, writing a
preface, a disclaimer, a copyright
notification, you all can do yourself with
the same agent. It will work in the same way. The last and most
important thing is designing the book cover. I think one more topic that
I should cover in this is formatting for print layout. That also can be done
using AI somewhat, but I haven't even
done it myself, but I do know how to
do the formatting, so I'll introduce you
to that at least. Designing book cover is a very easy and very
interesting thing. When I started writing books, my first book was
published in 2008, and it's referred on Wikipedia. You can look for there. It was called Indian
Corporate etiquette. Now for that book,
designing a book cover, when I had asked the publisher, they gave me a quotation
of 14,000 rupees. And back in 2008, 14,000 was a very big amount for just designing a book cover. I used I didn't have
that kind money, so I had used Microsoft Word
and PowerPoint combination to design the cover for my book. It was a terrible cover,
but the point is, I designed it, it got published. But now you can actually have professional grade book
covers designed using Canva. Let's try to see and
let's try to do that. We are going to use Canva
to design the book cover. Let's go to my Google Chrome, open Canva, create a design, and here I'll say book cover. It gives me various sizes, or whatever size I
might have chosen. Let's say I go with
1410 by 22 50 pixels. If you don't like
this, you can actually design by a custom size also. If you have a book which is
fixed in size, let's say, and the cover design
can be done for both, uh, print books as
well as for E books. For E books, it doesn't
matter because the size can be reappropriated
by the systems. But for print books,
we need precise size. So usually if we go for
millimeters and then we have, I'm just throwing a number
300 into 700 millimeter. No, it's too large. A book which is like 9 " will be 9218 and 4.5 22.5 centimeters. Right? That is 225 millimeters
and its width will be 6 ", which will be like
15 centimeters. That will be 150 MM width
and say create new design. You can see designs
have been created. Blank canvas has
come here and I'll say book cover templates. And you can see depends on what kind of template
do you want. Let's say book cover
for relationships. Now you can see relationships and communication,
out of conversation, love, or as we
were talking about breakup and how to do that. What is the path to recovery? Let's say we use this one or whatever you want,
you can use it. I'll use a slightly
difficult one so that we can learn a little more. Let's say we use this one. There's a lady here who appears to be a
little contemplative, so we can use it for
maybe she's sad. And here we'll say recovery path for heart wrenching breakups. I mean, I'm just
writing anything here. I can write stuff
here, whatever I want. I can write my name, your co writers name co author, whatever website you want. If you think this is
not coming out enough, you can add an element
like a square here, which is going to I'll
delete the square. I'll make this square
here as big as this, and then I'll make it
transparent like this. Then I'll start sending
it back using my Okay. So now what has happened
is the square has covered the background and I can change
the color of the square. Let's say I make it yellow. I mean, it shouldn't be yellow,
but why I made it yellow is because I just wanted to show you that you can make your text stand out compared
to the background image. Now the background
image appears to be a little too dull here, you can again, change
the transparency here, make it more transparent. If I make it zero,
this is the original. I keep increasing it to the point where I
feel comfortable that my text is
coming out enough. Maybe at this point
or maybe a little more for my comfort,
your choice is yours. I'm more comfortable here, but then the girl's
contemplative face is getting a little hidden. I can even make it
like this and if the word breakups is
appearing to be different, we can even give it
a different color. We can even see it like this. I mean, it's not a nice color, but what I'm trying
to teach here is that you can change the colors. Once this is done,
you can simply say share and download this, you can download it in the PNG format or
the SVG format for PNG format for E books
and SVG format is best for OPDaFmat is
best for print books. If you are going
for a print version with Kindle or any of the POD
writers or your publisher, they will usually give you a specific detail about
how to design the cover. This is material for a
completely different course, but having said that
at the same time, we can do it here also. And once this is ready, we can just export and
use it in our cover. So this is not AI, but yeah, what is the
AI component here? I can generate an
AI image also here, I can even say whatever it was, generate image of a glad generate really
funny images also. We want a photo or we want an
anime or you want a dreamy. I don't know. Let's
go with photo. I don't even know whether it will be a good or a bad image, but we can do it. That's the point of teaching
here that if you have Canva, you can create some auto
generated AI images also. Now, okay, so these images
actually are not bad. Like this one is
actually quite similar, if you see, to the one that has been generated that
is actually there. If I want to use this one, I can simply say replace the
background and there we have a different image which has been generated by AI it's
not a bad image at all. In fact, if I can just
readjust this stuff, you can see that
this entire thing is maybe whatever color. My color choices are bad, even I can see that. Recovery path for
trenching breakups, whatever, I can rehash the
size and the orientation. But the whole point being that AI generated image
has been placed and so easily we have got
the cover ready for us. I hope you have learned by now that even the AI will also
help you generate the image. Now. Last thing that
I want to teach you about let's go back to
notion is about formatting. Now for formatting, let's assume you have
written the book. We'll go back to the
Guttenberg project. This is the book of Sherlock Holmes and this
is Chapter one, right? This is Chapter one and
this is plain text. There's nothing
nicely done here. I'll just copy our
little part of it. Now we are going to
go to any platform. Let's go to hat GPT, and we say a new chat and say format the text below
with proper headings, subheadings and
paragraph formation. Make the important text
bold and underlined. All dialogues should
be in italics. And what else What else do we want point is I'm just
trying to show how to do it. And then I say, provide
output in HDML. Okay. And then I'll paste
that text between these quotations Chapter
one, Sherla combs. And say one, two, three, now let's see
what it does for us. Okay. So you can see it is now creating
an output in H table. Don't get over odd because
it looks like a code. I'll tell you how
to handle this. You don't have to
worry at all about this. But it's still writing. Yeah, I just finished writing. So once you see
the HTML endpoint. Now, you don't have
to copy everything, you can just say copy code. Once you copy code,
all you have to do is you go to any
online HTML editor. I have one, but I'm going to show you how to look for one. I'll say online HTML editor,
something like this. There are so many of them
which are free of cost, and let's say this first one, we pick up this first
one and test it out. This is another online
free HTML editor. Okay, so in this one, what happens is
we paste the code here and here comes
the complete text. I'll say try it yourself. Here I'm going to
paste the DTL code, which was generated by hat GPT, and then I'm going to say run
and you can see here that the code that has come out
here, there are headings. This is Heading one, Heading
two, underlines are there. All the dialogues are in italix. There are paragraphs, there's something like this is
bold and underline. So whatever I told it
to do, it has done. You can simply send this entire thing
to your publisher if you don't publish
it yourself, or if you are the kinds who
uses for example, MS Word. So what I'll do is I'll open
one MS Word or a Google Doc for and we'll open a blank document. We'll go back to the editor, we'll select everything
here, say Command C, we'll go back to
the Word document, and we'll say command B, and you can see the entire
formatting is retained. You don't have to bust yourself formatting your
own book again and again. This is how AI will help you. Let's once again just do a quick review of
what all we did. Today, we saw which tools we
can use like Open AI gen, voice memo for transcription,
super Whisper, typing mind, hugging chat, notebook alum all these we saw. We saw how to create an agent, how to find book
titles and creating a book outline,
writing the chapters, writing preface and
all you can do, I didn't cover it
particularly in the videos, but in designing the book cover and finally formatting
the print layout. I hope all of this is
going to help you like crazy in developing
your own book using AI. So if you like this course, please give a good
ew. Thank you.
