I want to thank you for subscribing, and now reading, my newsletter! I would be grateful if you would click on a link (any link will do). This tells Gmail and other programs that my emails are not spam. FYI - none of my links are affiliate links.

If you use any new AI tool and have an opinion about it (good or bad), please let me know by replying to this email.

1. Create Videos from Text in Seconds

Maybe you need a video to help with SEO. Or to reach a new community (TikTok). No need to spend big bucks. With Tellers.ai you simply provide the text and it generates a video in seconds. You can still make changes using its easy-to-use editing tools if desired. Captions is another platform that makes studio-grade videos with just a few taps. See also Epipheo.ai for marketing videos.

If you’re wondering, yes there are platforms that generate music with a text prompt. See Suno. I listened to a few. Pretty good!

2. Production Ready AI-Generated Code

One of the first uses for AI was writing and debugging software to develop the software faster. But for truly new applications, you’ve always needed a human or two to lead the project. While that is still true, that’s beginning to change. More and more platforms are professing to provide you with completely AI-written code that is ready for production. Jovu is one of the first.

I believe more and more of these will be popping up. Most entrepreneurs, however, are not adept at writing a software (functional) specification, which is another opportunity for an AI system. In other words, these AI systems will write software to accomplish tasks that are requested. The problem is that software can be very complex and the software requirements, therefore, can be very complex. Without a well written specification, the software is likely to be buggy when out-of-the-norm events occur.

I doubt very much that these platforms are adequately addressing the software requirements/specification, which should later be used to write other software to test the written software (another opportunity). Such a platform could be paid per project or paid for by a partnering software writing platform.

While I’ve always believed software engineering was a great career choice, my view on that has changed unless you’re specializing in AI development. But even that will be dominated by AI eventually.

3. Huge Opportunity in Digital Products

As you probably know, there is a huge opportunity in selling digital products such as online courses. Reasonable people are willing to pay a good sum of money to save time and money by learning from someone who’s already accomplished their goal.

Traditionally, however, courses haven’t been that easy to produce. At least not one where the student would be willing to pay meaningful amounts of money. Using AI, you can now create a course for a fraction of the time and money that was previously necessary.

Coursebox will help you brainstorm the structure of your course, and use you videos, documents, and websites to generate the course. It creates quizzes and long answer assignment questions. It provides AI grading to provide fast feedback to the students and includes an AI tutor trained in your course to give students real-time assistance.

If you’ve ever wanted to get into the course selling business, now may be the time. Once created, for each new student the cost to fulfill is virtually zero. To succeed in this business, you probably should have some expertise and credibility in the space and/or the ability to partner with someone who does. One idea would be to contact influencers and offer to build the course for them and split the revenue.

4. Elevate Your Job Applications

This company says their users get 4 times more interviews than others not using them.  Heero does a few things.

• Builds your resume.

• Creates a resume summary.

• Generates resume bullet points.

• Creates personalized cover letter.

• Compares your resume against the job description.

I don’t think that the feature list is all that impressive. However, I do think that this is the future of job applications - using AI to help emphasize your experience to match the job description. Eventually, everyone will use these.
