Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

Extract :

 

The cumulative impact from all the Generative IA applications is hard to exaggerate:

1.     Easy graphic creation is already within reach of non-professionals with tools like DALL-E, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion, at least for simple utilitarian purposes like getting a header image for this post. Before this year, I was completely unable to draw my own images, and blog experts advised against wasting time on graphic design for your own stories.

2.    Photo editing users won’t need to endure a tough learning curve to master the intricate set of tools of Photoshop or Affinity Photo (I use the latter, and it’s so complex I have to consult YouTube tutorials to learn how to make most adjustments). With Generative AI, users will just ask the software to perform a given transformation, and voila! The image will get fixed. If Adobe fails to deliver Generative AI with their tools, they will be disrupted by new startups offering them and will go the way of Blockbuster.

3.    Presentation tools like PowerPoint, instead of just providing templates as they do now, will generate and fine-tune entire professional-level presentations from outline ideas. Currently, the difference between professional and amateur presentations is huge –this won’t be the case anymore.

4.    Text writing will be a process highly enhanced by Generative AI tools. Many forms of writing are already getting help from sophisticated tools like Grammarly, but Generative AI will give writers a qualitatively new level of help by, for instance, generating a complete first version of a blog. Writing will be a collaborative process between humans and the AI tool.

5.    Any software intended for a final user will have to be simple to use with text or voice prompts. User manuals and instructional videos will be a thing of the past, and as soon as users get used to the new simple way of using software, everything will have to offer it in order to remain relevant.

6.    Language learning will be done mainly with the help of voice assistants, which will be powered by –you guessed it right– Generative AI. Voice assistants, which will act like personal language coaches, will use their amazing natural language dialog capabilities, first seen in systems like Google’s LaMDA, to guide the human language learner in order to acquire vocabulary and expressions, improve pronunciation, etc. Language-teaching voice assistants is not a futuristic fantasy –it just makes economic sense as of right now.
