I've been relatively closely following the development of AI tools ever since the first version of ChatGPT was released (gotta admit I was one of those people who posted pretentious posts on LinkedIn during the first hype hahaha), especially because the company I work for started implementing AI tools into our work routines as soon as they came live. Apart from that, I also used some AI tools for my own personal projects, hobbies, and everyday stuff (especially ChatGPT 4). For example, I used ChatGPT to make a personalized diet based on my dietary needs and the food I like to eat, and it did a better job than the few personal trainers I had PAID to do it.
The point is, AI tools have been proven to be exceptionally useful in 2023, and now that the industry has grown and more projects are starting to emerge, I can't but imagine how far will the industry go in 2024. And I'm quite happy because of that, the possibility to either delegate mundane tasks to AI or just speed up so many parts of the working routine has been a lifesaver. And even for hobbies, if you're into roleplay, for example, creating pictures of your characters has never been easier.
I did a bit of research and listed some projects that look the most promising to me. There might be others that deserve to be on this list as well, so please mention them in the comments because I'll surely try to make some use of them.
ChatGPT 4.5 Version | As I said above, the 4.0 version is already insanely useful for so many things, and I can't even imagine what the upgraded version will bring to the table. Probably in the top 2/3 most anticipated AI things for me.
Personal AI | I remember reading in an article that in the near future, AI projects will start moving from generic to personal because of all the benefits of personalized AI tools... most importantly, experiences and functions tailored towards individuals rather than generic groups. I believe that this is the most likely future for the industry, and we can see the traces of this in many current AI projects. Personal AI stands out as one of the few AI projects completely designed around personalized experience, which is why I believe it has an insane potential to be propelled into stardom if everything goes right for developers. I also like the general idea of being able to create memory stacks and your personalized AI model that functions as a virtual copy of you, so to say, and that could be accessed by other people. Could be a huge timesaver too for people whose jobs include frequent meetings and conversations with clients.
Midjourney V7 | Tbh I haven't used Midjourney too much other than playing around with picture creation once it became the next big thing in AI and occasionally creating sort of AI stock photos for some personal projects, but I've seen people doing magic with it and I simply couldn't leave it out of this post. I have a few personal favorites that I've come across on Reddit saved on my PC, and I even use them as my wallpapers from time to time. Midjourney V7 will be a nuclear bomb in the world of AI.
GPT Store | Basically a store for custom GPTs or custom chatbots created by other users. I think it's a pretty cool concept because it'll propel the development of AI by incentivizing regular users to work on developing their own GPT that they can make money from. I actually started training a custom GPT for some of the tasks that I deal with regularly at work, and I hope to try and sell it once the store launches.
