Learn to create with AI NoCode
Hey, happy Tuesday and welcome back to the Create With newsletter! ✨
This is our final newsletter for the year; so it's a killer roundup of what you've missed and need to know from 2024.
The theme is 5....as we roll into 2025. Clever right
Let's wrap up 2024 like a present...
🔎 Preview: In today's issue
- 5 takeaways from 2024, explained simply.
- Our top tools you can use to start building in 2025.
- Happy Holidays! ☃️ (And a chance to join our AI Wrapped webinar again).
🔊 5 takeaways from 2024 explained like you’re 5 years-old
- AI has become as essential as email - it's not just a fancy new tool anymore. Just like how you wouldn't try to run a business today without a website, soon you won't be able to compete without using AI. The big players (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) are making it as common as using a search engine.
- Building new products is now like using a meal kit service - all the ingredients are there, and you've got clear instructions. Whether you use no-code tools (like assembling IKEA furniture) or AI-assisted coding (like having a master chef guide you), you can create something functional quickly.
- AI video avatars have improved significantly. Soon, using an AI version of yourself for video calls might be as common as using a professional email signature - it's polished, consistent, and always camera-ready.
- Creating content with AI tools like Ideogram and Canva is now like having an instant photo editor - what used to take hours with Photoshop can be done in minutes. It's like having an entire marketing team in your laptop.
- Running a one-person business is becoming more like being a conductor rather than a one-man band. AI handles multiple roles like customer service, content creation, and coding - imagine having helpful assistants for every task, but they're all digital.
