Unleashing the Power of AI: a Game-Changer for visual content creation
For years, I grappled with the never-ending quest for the perfect images to grace my website, YouTube channel, and social media profiles. I yearned for pictures with boundless potential, unrestricted in their use, images that I could summon at a moment’s notice, without the looming anxiety of exceeding usage limits for on-demand visuals. As you may be aware, pictures, including those of your own face, often come with usage restrictions. There are limits, such as not being able to publish them in more than 10,000 folders, even if it’s your own face in the picture. It is evident that, in the long run, these constraints can pose challenges, especially if you have ambitions to expand for example your presence in the realm of online media.
One avenue I explored to tackle the challenges with images was hiring a freelance artist to craft tailor-made images. However, as a very young entrepreneur with a modest budget, I couldn’t afford to hire someone from Europe. So I opted for an overseas freelancer. Shockingly, even that choice set me back a staggering $350 for just one image. Don’t get me wrong; I’m grateful for the artistic gems that this artist conjured, which have embellished my presentations for years. But the undeniable truth is that continually parting with $350 for a single image becomes exorbitant, especially when your business demands a revolving door of visual content.
Fast forward to the present, and I can proudly declare that these concerns are now relics of the past. Thanks to the power of AI, I can effortlessly generate a plethora of personalized images without any strings attached and at almost zero costs!
The outcome? To demonstrate the possibilities, take a look at the images below. Picture 1 represents the original piece I paid $350 for with the help of a freelancer—a single image. The subsequent images are all products of AI, and they come virtually free of charge. Click on the AI-generated images to view them in a larger format, zoomed out for more details.
Picture 2-4: Images- created entirely by AI
The images showcased above have been created utilizing the capabilities of the Midjourney* AI (see below) platform.
It’s nothing short of miraculous that I can now create a kaleidoscope of images, infographics, and icons without opening my wallet. I can churn out an abundance of visuals without depleting my resources. Not only does this spell financial relief, but it also translates into reduced marketing expenses for my business. This, in turn, allows me to allocate my funds toward other ventures that enrich my lifestyle and fuel my business’s growth.
And there is more. With AI prompts, it is now also possible to create short animated videos. Based on my experience with various tools, I have concluded that AI prompts perform well for inanimate objects, landscapes such as forests or mountains. However, AI prompts for videos still struggle with human-like content. Nevertheless, I believe it won’t be long before AI technology advances to handle this aspect as well. Below, I have attached a video that was created using Video prompts through the website https://lensgo.ai
The following prompt was used to generate the video about the river: “create forrest and a river, very photo realistic, high quality picture, natural colors, realistic picture”.
