Day 12 - Technology Experiment
Day 12: Listened to entrepreneurs talk about AI, so I experimented. Made my first AI video using HeyGen. Still no product to flip, but learning new skills. Fun day!
Before school today, I was listening to some entrepreneurs on YouTube talk about all the AI tools they use in their business(es).
It got me thinking: could AI help Flip-n-Ricky?
So, today I experimented with how I could use it to help my business.
I made this👇 video.
I played with a new tool today.
What do you think?
Really just playing around with it, but it was fun to learn.
Here is what I did.
- Went to https://app.heygen.com/home
- Uploaded the logo I made for Flip-n-Ricky
- Copied my Day 1 blog post and put it in the search bar.
- Hit ENTER and this is what I got...
Pretty cool, right?
That's all I did today, though.
Tomorrow, we'll see what unfolds.
What I Learned About AI
Here's what surprised me:
- It was easier than I thought (Took like 15 minutes total)
- The voice is kinda weird (Doesn't sound exactly like me)
- It's better than I expected (I thought it would look super fake)
- It's not FREE (HeyGen isn't free after the trial)
Would I use this for Flip-n-Ricky?
Maybe. If I can figure out how to make it actually useful and not just cool.
Teacher's Note
- We make plans and God laughs. You never know how the journey will unfold as long as we don't give up.
- Curiosity is a SUPER POWER. It will unlock lessons, learnings, and opportunities we could have never dreamed of.
- As Dory says, "Just Keep Swimming"
