What is Generative AI?

Generative AI is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that aims to create something new, such as texts, images, music or videos. Unlike other types of AI, which are designed to analyze existing information or perform specific tasks, generative AI attempts to create something new based on what it has learned from a large amount of data. It uses patterns and structures in the data to generate new content that is similar to what it has seen before. It is, so to speak, a creative machine that is able to think and create in a way that was previously only possible for humans. Generative AI is used in many areas, from art and entertainment to research and development.

What are Generative AI tools?

ChatGPT is one of the best-known generative AI tools. This tool uses Generative AI methods to generate its answers. ChatGPT is very generic and not very focused on individual use cases. However, there are many other generative AI tools that focus on very specific applications such as podcast creation, meeting notes processing, research, image creation and many more. You can find an initial overview of the most important tools for relevant applications in the Generative AI tool overview on this page.

Why Generative AI Tools?

Generative AI tools are revolutionizing almost everyone’s day-to-day work. They help to optimize work processes, understand customers better and design campaigns more effectively. Many generative AI tools have precisely the capabilities that we sometimes lack. An AI tool can help me to create images if I am not artistically gifted myself. Or the Generative AI tool can carry out research for me and thus make my work more efficient.

What can you expect in the overview of Generative AI tools?

My overview of generative AI tools shows almost 30 AI tools for different applications. I have tested all the tools myself and I even use most of them regularly.

The overview shows a wide range of applications. I usually only show one or two Generative AI tools per use case or application. This means you don’t have to choose between countless tools for each application.

The majority of Generative AI tools offer free versions. However, the free versions are usually very limited and pro licenses costing around EUR 20 are usually required for real use.

In addition to the general functions and prices, I also provide information on data protection and the processing of the data entered.

Who is the target group of the Generative AI Tool Overview?

The Generative AI tool overview is aimed at anyone who wants to use Generative AI to make their day-to-day work easier or even take it to the next level. AI tools not only make our day-to-day work more efficient, they also bring with them skills that we don’t even have ourselves.

Prompts are becoming increasingly important when it comes to the successful interaction and use of AI systems. They are the primary means by which we interact with AI models, from simple chatbots to complex systems capable of generating text, creating images or even composing music. In an environment where interaction with AI is becoming increasingly intuitive, prompts play a crucial role in shaping these experiences. They enable us to control and adapt the enormous processing power of AI systems such as ChatGPT or SwissGPT so that individual, creative and, above all, useful results can be achieved. The better you master the skills of the prompt, the more successful your “cooperation” with AI tools will be.

How do I find the right Generative AI tools for me?

The tool overview on this page offers all interested parties an initial insight into almost 30 possible generative AI tools. All tools have been tested by myself and described for you.

You can find more tips on how to choose the right tools or how to decide whether it’s worth investing in a Pro version in my article on the AI masterclass and AI tools.

If you would prefer to try out tools directly and perhaps even do so in a group with like-minded people, there are regular AI masterclasses in Berlin and Zurich. Various tools will be presented over 2 days and you can try them out for yourself and share your experiences with the other participants (max. 15).
