AI voice technology has been moving fast for a while now. But recently, it feels like we‘ve shifted into a completely different gear. We’re not just talking about smoother narration or cleaner text-to-speech anymore. These tools are starting to sound like actual people, with emotions, personalities, and conversational quirks that can genuinely fool you.

Earlier this year, I was handed an AI-generated content project with a deceptively simple goal: adapt email messages for international audiences.

Honestly, I used to be an AI critic. When ChatGPT first came out, I tried a bunch of ChatGPT prompts. The output I got was often surface-level and sometimes inaccurate. I concluded that it would take more time to edit the work than to do it from scratch myself.

Keeping up with the best AI SEO tools can feel like a full-time job. While we all know that tools help us to do our jobs better and faster, finding the time to research the tools and integrate the new tool into an existing workflow is a considerable undertaking. That’s why I wrote this article.

As a marketer, my Mondays typically start with diving into the previous week’s performance reports. Excel sheets with campaign data, social post-mortems, budget allocations, ad spend analytics, and more. Sometimes, there’s enough data to make my head spin.

Given how logos are such an essential part of brand identity, I was skeptical of using AI logo generators.

Did you see the viral AI ad aired at the NBA finals? Crazy visuals, impeccable product integrations, 3.3M views on X. I almost couldn’t believe it was completely AI-generated content.

My graphic design journey started on Fiverr. I used to sell banners and background removal services for $5. I am not the best designer. Far from it. However, tools like Photoshop and Canva helped me create decent graphics by editing my way through their premium templates.

I know prompting can seem easy at first glance. Go to your favorite AI tool, type in what you want, and then watch AI generate a ton of options in seconds.
But it’s hardly that straightforward.

I remember when ChatGPT first launched. The entire marketing community was split on whether they should use AI chatbots or not. Posts about ChatGPT would get hundreds of comments, with one side debating the convenience of AI and the other arguing that AI can never match human creativity.
