I started a book about CIAM (customer identity and access management) using Claude to help outline a chapter. I'd edit and refine the outline to make sure it covered everything.

Then I'd have Claude create text. I'd then edit/refine each chapter's text.

Wow, was it unpleasant. It was kinda cool to see all the words put together, but editing the output was a slog.

It's bad enough editing your own writing, but for some reason this was even worse.
