Did you use AI to do the whole story?

[@DariaKorolArt]

Hi! Thanks for your interest. I started with a general idea and some initial prompts. Using AI, I generated lots of ideas, stories, and plots. From there, I mixed the ones I liked most and refined them to eventually create the story. It was a blend of human creativity and AI assistance. Hope you enjoyed it!
