Which AI Assistant feature felt most intuitive or useful during the practice activity? AI voice would probably be the most impactful for me. It was the tool that required the fewest interventions, just add text and let it run. The instant conversion of blocks also worked pretty well.
What challenges did you face when trying to get AI to produce the results you wanted? Generating icons (flashcard faces) was rough. Our company has a distinct visual brand and brand colors, but if we tried to include a palette to pull from, the tool created wonderful images with the palette included below or beside the image. Often, it was easiest to download the image and crop out the palette.
I have some practice prompting other tools for generating images, but I will need to work with the separate fields for the description and style. Usually, I was able to refine the image after several prompts. I am also used to conversational tools where I could fine-tune the output (iterate on an existing image w/ a further instruction) rather than start over. This refinement process had its own quirks, so I think this will just be a matter of spending more time getting used to the different prompts.
I agree AI voice is such a great feature! The quality of AI voices has come a long way in a few short years. I still remember only a few years ago using Amazon's Polly with syntax brackets to make the generation sounds less robotic. With Elevenlabs, it's almost impossible to tell the difference between human and AI.
