South African writer generates 371 books with AI in 20 months
Author Coral Hart earns over $1 million using neural networks to create literary works.
Hart started using AI for literary creation in February 2025, after 14 years in publishing and writing dozens of books herself. She developed her own text generation system in three months, studying several neural networks and refining the process.
The AI generates a first draft in 45 minutes, which is then edited and refined by humans to remove machine-generated characteristics. Hart retains creative control, developing the plot, characters, and style.
The system has produced over 1 million copies of her works, with Hart earning over $1 million in 2026.
