The Infinite Bookshelf

AI Makes 50% of Authors Obsolete

Business leaders everywhere predict that AI could eliminate 50% of white-collar jobs within 5 years (e.g. CEOs from Anthropic, Ford, Nvidia… ).

What does that mean for novelists and business writers? When might these digital brains make 50% of writers obsolete? I think the answer is right now. 

I Built an AI App That Writes Any Book You Want to Read—In Real Time

The Infinite Bookshelf generates personalized novels on demand. Want a mystery set in Victorian London? A space opera with talking cats? A romance between time travelers? Just ask, and it creates your story chapter by chapter.

This isn’t for writers or publishers—it’s for readers who want stories tailored exactly to their tastes. Each chapter materializes as you read, then vanishes when you move forward, making every reading experience unique and ephemeral.

Try it yourself:

  1. Create a free Claude.ai account (the story stays private in your account—I can’t see or access it)
  2. Describe your dream story or click the random story button
  3. Watch as your personalized novel unfolds
  4. Add details or make changes at any time and the AI will shift the story for you

This is just a prototype. It lacks a lot of useful features (which you’ll discover right away), but it’s good enough to make the point.  AI will never replace your favorite authors, but it can supplement them while you wait for their next book to arrive. 

Welcome to infinite, personalized adventures, romances, … anything. The implications are staggering—and there’s no going back. 

What story will you create?
