Another hopefully helpful article for those who are yet to come to terms with using AI, or understanding the terminology and capabilities of it: https://www.theverge.com/24201441/ai-terminology-explained-humans

Maybe you guys already know this, so forgive me, but I discovered that working with AI, if you say, “I want an image in pen drawing with no shading and with white background,” and then describe your picture, it comes out pretty good and can be used in a colouring book. I also found out that playing around with different AIs, some are better than others (but I'm sure that many of you know that).

Here is a guide I was emailed today. Get Your Gemini for Google Workspace Prompt Guide

Hi Anthony For the past year or so, I’ve been championing the benefits of AI in these newsletters. (I’m sure you’ve noticed! 😉) And that’s because I genuinely believe it’s a tool that helps overcome serious obstacles for many of my readers. Lack of writing skills… lack of time to do research, development and writing… lack of experience in business, marketing, sales and design. But by no means is AI perfect. It can get facts wrong, forget what you briefed it, and lazily trot out platitudes and generalisations that DO sound human… …but like a REALLY BORING human. Some people say that AI might destroy our civilisation. Perhaps it will – by putting us all to sleep! The world will end, not with a bang, but with a Zzzzzzzzzz…. Because here’s the main problem… Rubbish In, Rubbish Out If you leave AI to ‘do its thing’, without putting work and thought into the process, then you won’t get good results. What you’ll get will be bland, cliched, and very like the content produced by other people who use AI without knowing what they are doing. Worse, any written content you produce to sell on sites like Amazon or Clickbank could easily get picked up by AI detectors. These are getting more widespread and sophisticated. This is why I have put so much work into developing systems, strategies and blueprints that can help you use AI tools to get interesting, unique, quirky content that suits your personality or brand. Yes, it DOES take more effort than simply entering a prompt then cutting and pasting the result – even if you make some tweaks here and there. Beware the AI ‘Experts’ I also recommend that you ignore a lot of the so-called AI gurus and experts who are cropping up everywhere, because they don’t always know what they’re talking about. For example, a little while back I received this email from John, a What Really Makes Money reader. “I already have a clickbank account and have 3-4 products that I want to promote”, he writes. “I recently tried to get these products promoted following one of the Youtube ‘experts’ but it has backfired a little as one of the steps seems to have come unstuck.”
