In an otherwise great book, so much of it is filler content about how many suns there are. I don't care about that personally and find it distracting. By feeding the trilogy into ChatGPT, I was able to streamline it and reduce the plotline to one sun- ours for simplicity's sake. Now there are over 40% fewer words.

I like the part where she says FUCK IT WE BALL and hits the big red button

In one of my sequels, The Three-Body Problem: Easier Problems, my character (Dr. Happybadger) saves the world just by building a better spaceship than the Trisolaran ones. It's honestly pathetic the original books didn't think of that because it was the first thing ChatGPT said I should do.
