Airchat: The New Social Audio App

A new app has been making a lot of noise recently, "Airchat ," an audio-based app that uses AI to transcribe voice notes.

It creates a sort of Twitter feed where you tweet with your voice instead of typing text.

The founders hope to capture nuances that would be lost in text (which often cause disputes on text-based social media), leading to deeper and more respectful conversations.

Some users seem very excited about the arrival of a new social platform, but Airchat has also received a lot of criticism: "the app is boring to death" some say ...

The audio app Clubhouse had also generated a lot of hype a few years ago but quickly fizzled out.

?? Top 5 AI Avatar: Clone Video Generators For Content Creators

[ ??? Creator's Secret Ep 5/5 ]

To conclude our 5th and final episode on AI for content creators, we're doing a special focus on the top 5 tools for creating video avatars.

No need to go over it again and again, everyone knows that video is a preferred medium when creating content.

Yes, I know, it's weird coming from someone who spends their time writing text ??

But that's another story, it depends on your communication strategy, your channel, and your goals.

But if you've been following me for a while, you also know that we create videos to spice up this newsletter from time to time, and on other channels too.

And with the advent of AI, there's an incredible number of tools to help with video content creation.

But I'm not going to give you another list of AI-powered video tools, there are already plenty available everywhere.

No, this week I've decided to focus on a very specific type of tool: video avatar creation.

This kind of tool is definitely going to be essential in the future for content creation.

Although there's still a lot of improvement needed, what these tools are already capable of generating is impressive.

And besides saving you time, and you know that's my main goal, imagine how convenient it is to be able to generate an avatar of yourself.

A video clone that will speak for you, simply from text you dictate to it—imagine the gains in terms of process, production, preparation, and recording time.

Once again, we're only at the beginning, it's far from perfect.

But artificial intelligence is evolving exponentially, so improvements come very quickly.

Moreover, these tools are not only affordable but also super accessible, with some starting at less than $10 per month.

Alright, let's not waste any more time, grab your coffee, let's go!

I've chosen to limit the list to a top 5, there are clearly others, but I've stuck to the most popular ones.

Just to save you the time of checking and testing a dozen different tools.

And since things move very quickly in AI, don't hesitate to try out other tools when you come across them. It helps to stay informed and not miss out on the newcomers.

But seriously, you need to keep a VERY close eye on this and get involved fairly quickly.

The sooner you get your hands on it, the further ahead you'll be compared to others.
