Week 1 Discussion
- Which AI Assistant feature felt most intuitive or useful to you during the practice activities? Absolutely has to be creating AI text to speech. Its phenominally fast, and I no longer need to worry about background noise or ambience, also when the SME comes along and asks for a word changed at the last minute - it takes seconds!
- What challenges did you face when trying to get AI to produce the results you wanted? I have a continued dislike of the AI image creation - there is a dullness to the photorealistic images - they need to be more alive and human for me - so thats where my challenge lies. Things are getting bettter and probably by next week they'll be super (things are moving so fast!)😄

I agree with you about the image choices for the gallery images. I have found that the Storyline AI image generator has saved me time though.

True, to be able to create your own image with your criteria is a huge time saver, and the quality is excellent.

I totally agree with you Brian. The text-to-speech is a great option! It IS super convenient if you have material that can change as well. Game changer!

I agree Brian - I do still get a lot of "uncanny valley" in AI generated photorealistic images.

Agree!! I always use the AI text to speech and love how easy it is to quickly change the narration.

The text-to-speech has been handy for our team! So much so, the ID team now does all narration for courses instead of having our video department do the AI narration (a while ago, they used to do narrations in a recording booth, which took lots of time). As you said, it makes it so much faster when we're going through a review, and we need to tweak ONE word.

I’ve had issues with the AI image generation too—sometimes the images just looked off, or you could they were created by AI.

I agree about the AI text-to-speech feature, it’s incredibly fast. Not having to worry about background noise or re-recording when someone requests a last-minute change is a huge advantage.
I also understand your disappointment with AI image creation. Images often feel flat and lack a genuine, human quality and I’ve noticed frequent same-face syndrome in group shots as well. Because of that (and because generating images that clearly draw from real artists' work generally leaves a bad taste in my mouth), I prefer starting with high-quality stock images and refining them in Photoshop. That combination gives me more control and produces more natural, polished results.

I agree with you Brian on the photo challenges and would like to see more photorealistic images.

I noticed that you never get the same image when you ask the same description again!
Changing the created image afterwards like to change the writing or remove something from the AI image is quite a challenge - AnneDemeter2 days agoCommunity Member
Totally agree, Brian! AI generated audio is a total game changer and having it right there in the system is an even greater benefit.
