Research Blog
Today, I spent the day researching AI sites to help me build a community for my YouTube channel and blog website. Here are the processes I took and the goals I achieved:
Searched YouTube for AI sites and engines.
Searched the internet for AI engines, sites, etc., and learned about what is available.
Posted and listed everything I did for the blog.
Discovered and determined subjects that I need to make specific blogs covering.
For each site idea and skillset, I asked myself these questions:
Is it relevant to my needs?
Is it something I can do?
Is it a skill set I can learn easily?
Is it ethical to use?
Is it legal to use AI in this area?
Is it free or is there a one-off cost or monthly subscription?
I discovered several sites that I need to look at more closely, including:
Buildai.space: Builds apps using AI.
Axiom.ai: Creates browser bots to automate things online.
Adobe Podcast Beta: Takes recorded voice (e.g., bad mic) and improves it.
PowerPoint.new: AI speech and presenting coaching; use rehearse with coach feature to help with body language and presentation and viewer connectivity skills.
Canva: Usefully editing tool, but now has integrated dalli 2 to allow AI-generated art, pictures, etc. that can be used in your projects.
Palette.fm: Black and white to color conversion tool; ideal for stock public domain royalty-free old pictures.
Copy.ai: An AI copywriter.
Splitter.ai: Takes a music or sound file and splits it into its components, such as bass, drums, other, piano, vocals, etc.
Descript app overdubb tool: Upload your voice and synthesize it, allowing you to create a realistic copy of your voice to read text.
Runwayml picture video editor: Inpainting tool that lets you remove objects from photos and videos.
Elevenlabs: Synthetic, very realistic voices; best I've heard so far and recreation of your voice possible as well.
Synthesia: Clone of you or AI-generated avatar.
Kartiv.com: Uses text to edit images.
Notion AI: Script conversation AI that can write blogs, stories, essays, poems, etc.
Legalese Decoder: Helps you understand legal text, such as terms and conditions, by giving you a quicker and simpler breakdown of legal documents and terms.
Looka: A one-stop-shop to create branding.
Tutorai.me: Online interactive teacher that creates a course for you to learn almost anything you are interested in.
After six hours of research, I decided to take a break and let my brain defry a bit. I realized that I need to chill and stop going so hard. However, I am excited to continue my research and delve deeper into the tools and platforms I have discovered.

sites discovered today that i need to look at at least a little more
buildai.space builds apps using ai
axiom.ai creates bowser bots to automate things online
adobe podcast beta (free?) takes recorded voice ie bad mic and improves it
powerpoint.new (free?) ai speech and presenting coaching use rehearse with coach feature will help body language and presenttion and viewer connectivety skills

palette.fm (free?) black and white to color conversion tool (1st impression i had instant idea to use stock public domain royalty free old pictures in black and white to make more modern sell as wall art or print on demand definetly something i want to look at in more depth)
copy.ai is a ai copywriter i need to learn what is copywriting
splitter.ai (free?) take a music or sound file and splits it into its components ie bass,drums,other, piano,vocals etc u can isolate or add remove each component , (1st impression and idea I could use this in yt or tiktok shorts to create unique and pleasing background audio) i would have to be very careful as i do not know legalities of using part of someones music or its components so to start i would have to make sure it is copyright free or public domain music ,( 2nd idea using 2 diferent artists and mashing there music together to create new sounds and compositions) more research needed
descript app overdubb tool upload your voice and synthisise it allowing you to create realistic copy of your voice to read text ( 1st impression and idea create social media or yt videos or podcast without having to worry about your voice mood mic outside noises etc needs a deeper dive )
runwayml picture video editor (1st impression inpainting tool lets u remove objects from photos videos etc needs more attention)

synthesia clone of u or ai generated avatar
kartiv.com uses text to edit images
notion ai (1st impression same as chat gpt and other script conversation ais can write u blogs stories essay poems etc) need to be careful not to use to write content all content i produce needs to be original and be aware of plagerism and legal issues, legaity of such ai is still up in the air as its training models and how it gathers information ie the web does it source from quotes etc something i can use for to start is to promote and give me ideas for my own content note to self keep aware and keep the high ground ethically always if i can
legalese decoder (free?) helps u understand legal text for example terms and conditions to give u a quicker and simpler breakdown of legal documents and terms for the layman
looka 1 stop shop to create branding
