Cheers

Thanks for your input. I thought 50/50 was simple and "nice" numbers. What range would you expect?

To be honest I haven't decided yet! I focused on launching fast to capture attention and then explore options

Thanks for your comment and wishes. Your son is lucky to have you and those unique stories!

I prefer to not think on absolutes and I believe that there are many different ways to create emotional/valuable stuff though! And if AI (or any other tool) helps me creating those I'll welcome them.

I'm not a writer. Now imagine how awesome would be if you sent this message combining 0 and 1 or even better using smoke signals?

It has nothing to do, but the morality prevents you and many others from seeing through.

You know printers exist right? You can create a physical book in which he'll be the main character of the story in whatever scenario he likes the most. I remember receiving one of those as a child and I remembered it for life. Try asking for a famous author to create that one for you.

There's not just a single way of doing emotionally valuable things and/or a single way of doing "right" things.

Thanks! From my own personal experience, my 3YO daughter loves them and reading those to her as bedtime stories has been very much common lately!

I purchased other custom books created in more "traditional" ways, although I assume there has to be some degree of automation too, and the experience feels similar, she even resembles way more in these than in the traditional ones.

I built this project originally for my 3YO daughter and I've generated and read so many stories to her while building it. Those moments are priceless and made it worthwile alone.

Thanks for your feedback! I myself read these to my 3YO daughter and it's true that sometimes I have to adapt the text on the fly. Always room for improvement!

I'm a parent myself and my daughter (3YO) won't stop asking me new stories everyday.

I kind of get your point but the moments I've been sharing with her thanks to this project are priceless.

On-demand printing is on the roadmap. Yes you can do it yourself if you want, same as with any other existing tool, but there has been time and effort invested to get the best results with the minimal effort, and it can just keep improving!
