One thing I've noticed is that a lot of people show off cool stuff with AI.
Like really cool stuff. But a lot of demos are them going in and out of all these different apps, cutting and pasting this here, that there.
The output is cool, but there are so many hoops to jump through it's hard to do. Or just a pain to do on a day to day basis. And impossible at scale.
And, I'd say the output isn't really perfected either. It's surface level just to demonstrate the concept.
So I think one of the most important skills is going to be able to tie these things together and produce good output. (with automation and other tools).
So one of my newest projects in the Labs in Kontent Story Magic 🪄.
The name might change but I kinda liked it.
It's the flexible system that can tie all the tools together on the creation side of things into something you'd actually enjoy to use day to day. And be proud to publish. I'm certainly not going to be in 30 different apps just make something cool in AI every day.
I've done a ton on the production and distribution (and will continue). But I'm going to be doing more on the creation side of things now too. Using Video and Image APIs along side ChatGPT for text. Claude too.
And also connecting the original source material in an easy way that gets original source content into these repurposing AI systems.
Like more stuff on taking notes on your phone and producing all sorts of cool output, in video, image and text formats.
Or being able to consume news articles in your niche and applying your pov to produce different outputs of all types, with your spin on it.
One of my great skills is creating the containers and systems to connect things in ways others can't.
I've been coding so long (35 years) I just understand the core of how all this works down to the bits and bytes.
So I'm going to continue that trend and try and make some useful stuff for you guys!
Let me know in the comments if you've ever had a dream way of creating content, from brainstorming to ingesting articles, to whatever.
Curious what is on your mind.
Let me know.
