Which AI Assistant feature felt most intuitive or useful to you during the practice activities?
Using the AI text-to-speech feature. It is very easy to use, whether it is to generate or revise the audio. One thing I have noticed though is that on occasion, when generating a lot of audio via Storyline and/or keeping the app open across desktop sessions, the AI dialog box disappears behind the main window. I have to close the application and reopen it to eliminate the behavior.
What challenges did you face when trying to get AI to produce the results you wanted?
I have found that the AI image generator will on occasion show the same individual multiple times in the image or will often show multiple and sometimes all the individuals in the image in blue button down shirts or blue suits if you specify an office or corporate setting.
I agree, the AI text-to-speech feature is very intuitive. It’s quick to generate and even quicker to revise, which makes it easy to update narration without re-recording everything.
I’ve noticed something similar with the image generator, which tracks with every other image generator- sometimes you get “same-face syndrome” where multiple individuals in a crowd look nearly identical. I’ve also seen that tendency toward uniform clothing (like everyone in blue button-downs in a corporate setting). It feels like a form of mode collapse where the AI defaults to a narrow interpretation of the prompt. When that happens, I’ve found being extremely specific in the prompt or manually adjusting in Photoshop afterwards is usually faster than regenerating multiple versions.
