Best way to "complete" an unfinished book using GPT?


I wrote a ~200 pages book, many years ago, and I never completed it. Probably another ~90-100 pages or so to do it properly.

What would be the best way to use GPT-4 (I have a pro account) to try to see how it would complete it?

I am not familiar with doing something specifically like this.

As a guy who happened to read some unfinished book by a dissident author who was killed by some government I really don't want it to be finished even by human. You might have a gorgeous story line and then some random monkey who can not even draw a hand is going to put its nothing-to-say approach to bake a novel from a few semi-separated stories. Books don't work like that IMO.

You can expect 10 pages of insight, 70 pages of filler, and at least 10 pages of schizophrenic hallucination.
