AI can help you create faster, but it still needs to sound like you. In this episode of ACES53, Ed Parcaut and Brian Galke talk about AI book publishing, book covers, author copies, Audible versions, ghostwriting, personal voice, business assets, and why the cheapest tool can become the most expensive option when it costs you hours of extra work. Ed shares updates on his books, including Divided Assets and Financial Freedom for Veterans, and explains how AI tools are helping him create and refine professional-looking book covers. Brian talks about waiting on the physical proof copy of his book and learning how author copies can be ordered directly, often much cheaper than buying retail copies. The conversation expands into a bigger lesson for entrepreneurs and professionals: build assets before you need them.
