Since ChatGPT was released, I’ve been trying many AI tools for different purposes.
In this article, I’ll share with you my favorite AI tools. I’ll leave a small review of each tool as well as links to complete guides to learn more about them.
1. GPTs - For everyone
Everyone uses ChatGPT, but only a few make the most GPTs.
With GPTs, you can sum up videos, get insights from articles, scrape simple websites, and more. Here’s a summary (of my YouTube video) I generated using the Video Insight GPT.
I love GPTs. If you’re a student you might find these GPTs useful:
Video Insights
Link Reader
Language Teacher
If you’re a programmer, here are some good GPTs for you.
2. Midjourney - For image generation
In the past, I used to download copyright-free images from sites like Unsplash but now I can generate cooler images with AI thanks to Midjourney.
You probably know that Midjourney can generate images from text prompts in seconds, but you might still be unfamiliar with its latest features. One new feature I like is turning sketches into AI art. Now we can bring our ideas to life with Midjourney’s Retexture feature.
Besides Midrjouney, I have to admit I also use DALL-E 3 (like in the first image in this article). That said, I often use DALL-E as my last resort when my prompts get me nowhere with Midrjourney.
Overall, I prefer the image quality of Midjourney over other AI art tools.
3. GitHub Copilot - For coding
GitHub’s AI tool is a game-changer for real-time code writing. What’s cool about it is that it offers an interaction style similar to ChatGPT, but it’s focused on coding. Plus, it has the ability to keep building out a program you’re working on in the editor.
One feature that really stands out to me is the chat function. You can literally quiz it about constructing functions or clear up any doubts about specific bits of your code. It’s like having a coding guru on standby, ready to jump in with insights or solutions.

Plus, there’s this feature that lets you move the suggested code into your editor. This creates a seamless flow, letting you bounce between the chat and the editor.
