Week 1 Discussion

2. What surprised you about how AI handled text or media generation?

The tool that I found most surprising while working through the exercises was the image generator. Like the instructor said in the video, not every image is a winner, but I see a marked improvement in the images I got today versus what I was getting last year. I’m sure some of that is because I’m getting better at writing prompts, but I think the image quality is also improving. I especially like that we can create square images that fit the flip cards and some of the grid image blocks without having to edit them further.

3. Which editing tools (rewrite, shorten, change tone, etc.) did you find most valuable, and why?

The editing tool I found most valuable was the instant conversion to another type of block. I tend to use one type of interaction a lot and this feature makes changing to another one really easy.
