One-star for the same reason as everyone else。。。F*** this dweeb “author” and anyone who supports him。Were he on fire and my belly full of urine， I would wait for him to die， then put out the flames。

Kind of horrifying， really。 Not because I have any problems with the art。 I thought it was beautiful。 I just think the fact that we’re welcoming AI is a little scary。 I definitely only read this because of the controversy around it。 I don’t think it was well written and I don’t think it was even a…story。

No actual story， images repetitive and inconsistent The description says a girl and her AI robot go on adventures together，but none of those adventures are described or shown in the images。 Editing was needed with errors in the writing and inconsistencies in the images， which robot is sparkle， which girl is Alice？ Alice's face and eyes change almost every page and the robot doesn't stay the same。 It's like someone who had heard about a children's story but never actually read and enjoyed one wro No actual story， images repetitive and inconsistent The description says a girl and her AI robot go on adventures together，but none of those adventures are described or shown in the images。 Editing was needed with errors in the writing and inconsistencies in the images， which robot is sparkle， which girl is Alice？ Alice's face and eyes change almost every page and the robot doesn't stay the same。 It's like someone who had heard about a children's story but never actually read and enjoyed one wrote and illustrated the book。 Straight to the $1 clearance bin。 Hard pass。 。。。more

Can’t claim something you didn’t actually make。

Dropping a review to say that “writing” or “illustrating” a book using AI is theft and spits in the face of every author and illustrator in existence :）

This is theft。This book is the epitomy of what's wrong with current image/text generation AI and I wouldn't recommend it to any child's library。 AI software currently uses *copyrighted* images without paying royalties or credit to the artists it draws from。 The images in this book are essentially very good collage that steals jobs from independent artists while simultaneously stealing their art。 This is also true for text generation， which takes scraps from articles， books， and blogs。 It's great This is theft。This book is the epitomy of what's wrong with current image/text generation AI and I wouldn't recommend it to any child's library。 AI software currently uses *copyrighted* images without paying royalties or credit to the artists it draws from。 The images in this book are essentially very good collage that steals jobs from independent artists while simultaneously stealing their art。 This is also true for text generation， which takes scraps from articles， books， and blogs。 It's great to teach kids appreciation for technology， but not pirateware。 There's no mention of how to use AI responsibly， which in a book geared towards young children learning lessons like sharing seems like a pretty big oversight。 。。。more

Hayao Miyazaki of Studio Ghibli said about AI art: "I strongly feel that this is an insult to life itself"。AI "makes" art by stealing from human artists， that's so very immoral and disrespectful， simply disgusting behavior。 There went no love or thought into "making" this children's （！！！） Book。 Children deserve so much more and better than this。 Hayao Miyazaki of Studio Ghibli said about AI art: "I strongly feel that this is an insult to life itself"。AI "makes" art by stealing from human artists， that's so very immoral and disrespectful， simply disgusting behavior。 There went no love or thought into "making" this children's （！！！） Book。 Children deserve so much more and better than this。 。。。more

The art is cute， and I love the story concept。 It's also neat that it was written by a person AND an AI bot。。。。 about a little girl who creates an AI robot。 However for this story to really resonate it should have been longer， like at least an easy reader。 What did Alice DO to invent Sparkle？ Tell me more about the fun adventures they had together。 Etc。 As with anything innovative， there was a LOT of noise/controversy around this book and it's hard to know fact from fiction。 I hope that the auth The art is cute， and I love the story concept。 It's also neat that it was written by a person AND an AI bot。。。。 about a little girl who creates an AI robot。 However for this story to really resonate it should have been longer， like at least an easy reader。 What did Alice DO to invent Sparkle？ Tell me more about the fun adventures they had together。 Etc。 As with anything innovative， there was a LOT of noise/controversy around this book and it's hard to know fact from fiction。 I hope that the author does continue to try AI collaboration， presuming it can be done ethically。 。。。more

What do you know， another douchebag tech bro devalues creative work。 （Meanwhile， you know his little life is made immeasurably better by creative works。） This book uses stolen art and writing。 Don't buy it， don't read it， rake Ammaar Reshi over the coals for "creating" it。 And definitely don't believe him when he says he's just looking to have a "discussion" and "listening" to artists' "valid" concerns about AI。 Please。 He's just as quickly turning into an asshole toward creatives who get a litt What do you know， another douchebag tech bro devalues creative work。 （Meanwhile， you know his little life is made immeasurably better by creative works。） This book uses stolen art and writing。 Don't buy it， don't read it， rake Ammaar Reshi over the coals for "creating" it。 And definitely don't believe him when he says he's just looking to have a "discussion" and "listening" to artists' "valid" concerns about AI。 Please。 He's just as quickly turning into an asshole toward creatives who get a little too uppity for his tastes。Look， I'm not even anti-AI， but I am definitely anti people who don't care about consent， and that's what using these presently unrefined tools to make a quick buck boils down to: consent。 Creators are not opting into having these tools scrape （"learn" from） their work。 They're being stolen from。 Ammaar Reshi knows it。 The AI programmers know it。 They don't give a damn because they think they do the "real" work， while the rest of us should just get "real" jobs like theirs。 Anyone with a lick of sense knows the type。 While I can forgive people who don't understand how these tools work， tech bros know。 Don't be fooled。 Considering they tend to be some of the most highly-paid workers in our society， the fact that they're stealing from some of the most unfairly paid really sums up the issues of today。 。。。more

I believe this book contributes heavily to the decay of art， and will make food for the soul more sparse。
