Week 2 - Group 1 Discussion

Hi all - Here is the course I modified:

It was fun and educational to freely experiment with AI tools in this way!  The three changes I made included: a) changing text (shortening/shifting to storytelling), b) changing block types (from list to sorting, from text to labeled graphic, where I used AI to improve the marker text), and c) adding narration and avatars via custom blocks. The voice quality is excellent, and the variety is impressive.  I look forward to using the British Crone voice somewhere!

The AI features I used most were: a) image generation, b) text improvement, and c) AI audio narration.  All gave me excellent results. I was especially impressed with AI's ability to turn text into a first-person story conducive to narration.  I spent time refining the image custom prompt to achieve the vibe I was going for, but ended up going with "simple, abstract sketch with colored pencils reminiscent of a DaVinci sketch. The color palette is cool natural tones" and I liked the result.  I had the most fun asking the AI Assistant to create images in a Jasper Johns or Jackson Pollock style, though. 😄

The challenge I experienced was the appropriate level of detail in the prompt, then refactoring it to get what needed.  I would love to be able to download an AI- generated image, then save/upload/reference it to get a slightly different version of the same image for use later in the course - a way to show a persona experiencing different emotions throughout the course.  I forgot to put this on my wish list!

I didn't spend too much time refining the content and text to eliminate repetitiveness but I can see where the AI Assistant can help me with this.

Separately, I used the AI Assistant to create a new Rise course from two documents, and it did an excellent job.  I'm excited to continue playing with the various features.  I'm excited to continue experimenting!
