Class Summary

During my Digital Media class this semester, we spent most of time learning about Adobe Photoshop, Indesign, and Illustrator. I didn’t enjoy doing this as it's not an interest of mine. With that said there was one thing that I found very fascinating, and that was playing around with Midjourney AI. It was super interesting to see how this AI could create all kinds of designs and visual content. I don't plan on going into a field where I need to know how to use any of the Adobe programs, but it's helpful to have used them and to at least be a little familiar with the interface. Overall, this class was definitely an interesting experience.

AI technology used for the NFL Draft

With the NFL draft coming up,  I've been thinking a lot about how AI can help NFL teams scout players during the draft. AI technology could analyze countless data points, including a player's performance metrics, biometrics, and even social media activity to predict their potential success in the league. This could make the scouting process more efficient and effective, allowing teams to make smarter decisions when it comes to drafting players. For example, what if a team could use AI technology to help watch film on a high rated prospect like CJ Stroud, or provide statistics on a very low ranked draft prospect in order to have an edge on other teams. Additionally, AI could be used to simulate the combine and predict how well a player might perform in various drills, giving teams an even better understanding of their potential. The biggest downside with this is that it could take away human instinct when drafting a player which is important. Too much reliance on AI technology c

Casey Neistats vlog

The other day I watched a video made by one of my favorite YouTuber's, Casey Neistat. The premise of the vlog was that he used an AI to make a vlog in the style of himself. Throughout the video he follows a script of what the AI said including camera angles, dialogue, and imagery. The entire vlog felt very stale and almost as if someone who has only seen a couple Casey Neistat videos wanted to try and recreate one. At the end, Casey talks about how AI doesn’t have any personality or human emotion behind it, therefore art made by humans will (at least for the time being) prevail. I thought this was an awesome message and a really cool video idea. I also felt it related a lot to what we have done in this class as a lot of it has been AI related. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ygj9vBF_WUk

Snapchat AI bot

In the last few days Snapchat has announced and released their own AI bot. Now every Snapchat user has access to their own personal chat bot. This has gone viral on social media as people are now learning a lot about the capabilities of AI and how it can be used. Many people are posting videos and screenshots of their conversations with their bot. I thought this was interesting because this could be the future of social media. This has certainly created a lot of buzz around the capabilities of AI.
