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

1. Thwart that Paywall

So you’re searching the internet and one of the search results looks very promising. You click on the link to read the full article and BAM!! Paywall shuts you out!

After some careful deliberation, you then decide to pay to read the article and BAM! You discover the article isn’t really relevant to what you’re looking for… and your money is long gone.

Now with smry.ai you can get a concise summary of that article in seconds without paying. So if you decide to pay you’re probably not wasting your money. And maybe you won’t even have to pay.

So if AI can get and read an article to produce a summary, it could also just reproduce it. Paywall technology will need to step up it’s game to stay ahead of AI. No doubt some unscrupulous businesses will pop up and offer these paid-for articles cheaper than the real owner.

2. Video Captions Galore

We all know businesses should produce content to build their brand. We also know that captions make the video videos more engaging. But what a pain it is to add captions!

Vsub.io will automatically caption your videos. Easy peasy! And that’s not all. You can pick the style using their templates. And it will even add animated Emoji! 98.5% accuracy.

Free for up to 10 videos per month but includes a watermark. $19/mo for 20/month and no watermark.

3. Video Publication on YouTube

So now that you’re done making your video (and adding captions), you need to publish it on YouTube. This means adding titles, a video description, etc. Again, what a pain!

Morise.ai will take some of that sting away because it automatically generates titles, community notes, tags, and a video description. And if you’re having trouble with ideas, it will generate video ideas. They claim it can 10X your channel. The first 3 projects are free so check it out.

It’s easy to see where this is going. There are AI-generated video ideas, video spokespersons, captions, thumbnails, metadata (titles, descriptions, etc.), etc. So just like we can type in a prompt to AI to generate a story, a poem, or a song, we’ll soon be able to type in a prompt to generate a complete publication-ready video (captions and all).

4. Understand Any Complex Legal Agreement

I came across this on X (Twitter).

It’s a GPT-4 prompt that converts a complex legal agreement into simple language. It’s perfect for entrepreneurs who need to understand legal documents, attorneys who want to make their advice more accessible, or any non-lawyer who needs to navigate legal jargon:
