๐Ÿ‘‹ Hello everyone, welcome to our very first Weekly Discussion thread!

This week, weโ€™re focusing on the applications of AI that youโ€™ve found particularly noteworthy.

Weโ€™re not just looking for headline-making AI applications. Weโ€™re interested in the tools that have made a real difference in your day-to-day routine, or a unique AI feature that youโ€™ve found useful. Have you discovered a new way to utilize ChatGPT? Perhaps Stable Diffusion or Midjourney has helped you generate an image that youโ€™re proud of?

Letโ€™s share our knowledge and learn more about the various applications of AI. Looking forward to your contributions.

    I started using GPT-4 for summarizing YouTube videos: I download the transcript (there are websites where I can do it but Iโ€™m sure it can be automated easily), which I feed into GPT-4 and get a really nice summary.

    #2

    I implemented documentation querying using a vector store and GPT-3.5 at my day job. Here is a simple example in Langchainโ€™s docs.

    My wife and I are both huge fans of the โ€œHis Dark Materialsโ€ trilogy by Philip Pullman. The story of these books starts out in a parallel world where everyone has a โ€œdaemonโ€, an animal companion that is the embodiment of part of their soul. What kind of animal a personโ€™s daemon โ€œsettlesโ€ as after puberty reflects their personality. We asked ChatGPT to ask a few questions about our personalities, which we answered, then it determined what kind of animals our daemons would be, and wrote Midjourney prompts to visualize them. This was a really fun game, we enjoyed it a lot!

    Itโ€™s nothing special, but you can connect ChatGPT with Google Sheets and Docs via an Extension (ChatGPT for Sheets and Docs).
    Important learning: Copy everything you want to keep and insert it again as plain text. Sometimes everything reloads und your input might be gone.

    I am the writer of MovieMachine which is a tutorial series that shows you how to storyboard, animate and create VFX with Midjourney. The featured tutorial is from V4 and weโ€™re on V5.2 now so itโ€™s gotten even more indepth since writing this but I am proud of it + itโ€™s the main workflow behind my graphic novel series Behind The Valley. All of this is AI or (heavily) AI assisted. Thanks for checking it out.

    Hey all, I have been putting together this little toy app recently that is arguably completely antithetical to โ€œActually Useful AIโ€โ€ฆ but I wanted to try and get some initial feedback anyways. Itโ€™s a simple site where you query an obelisk for sage advice. Thatโ€™s it. Itโ€™s here if anyone wants to try it, curious what you guys think: https://obelisk.space/. If thereโ€™s a better place to post this, please let me know!
