And I love my kids. Definitely not in that order.<\/p>\n<p>Around a year and a half ago, as I began diving down the rabbit trail on LLMs, AI, and <a href=\"https:\/\/chat.openai.com\/\">ChatGPT<\/a>, I had a thought. The LLMs kept hallucinating, and I was trying to think of some contexts in which hallucination could be a good thing.<\/p>\n<p>Then, I was interrupted by one of my sons. He wanted to read a book, again. The same one we read an hour ago.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, I wasn&#8217;t going to deny my son his reading time, and I do genuinely enjoy reading with my kids. But later that afternoon I thought to myself, &#8220;What if my kids could have storytime with custom stories, crafted specifically for their interests? Isn&#8217;t this the sort of thing LLMs should be good at?&#8221;<\/p>\n<h4>Introducing Storybuilder<\/h4>\n\n<p>A few minutes later, I had stood up the rails of a site and connected to the ChatGPT API. Then came the fun part:<\/p>\n<p><strong>I recruited my then 6 and 9 (now 8 and 11) year old sons to help me build the site.<\/strong> It was so fun! I taught them about all the various components of a tech company. It&#8217;s not just about the technology. You have to design it, and market it, and measure usage, and sell it (if you want to make money). They learned a ton, and I did too!<\/p>\n<p>I took feature request upon feature request from my kids, and they helped strategize about the direction to take the site. They also did a lot of the site design work. They were great partners! Thanks, Max and Asher!<\/p>\n<p>Now, you get to see the fruits of our labor. <a href=\"https:\/\/storybuilder.club\/\">Check out Storybuilder, and write a personalized story for the kids in your life.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1956\" height=\"1418\" src=\"http:\/\/josh.ev9.org\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/CleanShot-2024-12-02-at-15.40.34@2x.png\" alt=\"Screenshot of https:\/\/storybuilder.club\" class=\"wp-image-937\" srcset=\"https:\/\/josh.ev9.org\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/CleanShot-2024-12-02-at-15.40.34@2x.png 1956w, https:\/\/josh.ev9.org\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/CleanShot-2024-12-02-at-15.40.34@2x-300x217.png 300w, https:\/\/josh.ev9.org\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/CleanShot-2024-12-02-at-15.40.34@2x-1024x742.png 1024w, https:\/\/josh.ev9.org\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/CleanShot-2024-12-02-at-15.40.34@2x-768x557.png 768w, https:\/\/josh.ev9.org\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/CleanShot-2024-12-02-at-15.40.34@2x-1536x1114.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1956px) 100vw, 1956px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TL;DR: Check out Storybuilder, and create fun, personalized stories for the kids in your life.
