My live and updated list of AI tools for help with creating AI prompts, writing content, editing, conducting research, generating images, video and more.
There’s a lot happening right now, so I’m saving AI-driven tools as I come across them. The exciting stuff is seeing the ways AI is being incorporated into workflows and aiding productivity and creativity. The scary stuff is seeing reported job losses, issues around plagiarism and the fear among writers (myself included) and the speed at which it’s all happening.
Will it replace writers and strategists like me?
As a writer and content strategist, I’m in the firing line, so to speak, when AI tools promise big about making writing easy. At the moment, however, it can’t create the complex documents, undertake the detailed, accurate research that I do, nor can it interview stakeholders, undertake content analysis and competitor analysis to create a targeted, strategic content strategy plans.
But there’s no denying this new and growing breed of generative AI systems is quickly developing as people from all walks look at how and where they can tap AI to get a helping hand.

Search

Perplexity AI will search across the entire web or it can be narrowed to academic, YouTube or Reddit. It also has a text and code generator function.
AI Checkers
One of the problems with all these AI-powered tools is that they can’t always be trusted to deliver accurate information and are being used to cheat on school work and plagiarise. Hence the rise of the AI checkers.
