AI + Passion - Hype. Jump Aboard!
Unless youâve somehow slept through the past couple of years, youâll know that generative AI is now everywhere.
Unfortunately, so is the endless AI hype.
Thatâs why Iâm here.
My goal is to skip the breathless marketing bullshit and share practical AI tools and tips for regular people without a technical background.
People like you and me.
âWho dis?â
I'm Daniel.
I have a face:
I canât code. Iâm not a visual artist. And I donât produce music.
But generative AI lets me code simple games, get creative with images, experiment with text-to-music tools, and test AI video models.
My goal with Why Try AI is to help others get into this space in a no-nonsense, practical way.
I focus on AI news, tips, and tools that:
Are instantly usable by the average person
Have little to no learning curve
Are cheap or free to use
âWhat type of content will I get?â
What I write tends to fall into the following categories:
Hands-on tips you can implement right away (example)
Lists of beginner-friendly tools, sites, and apps (example)
AI news that are relevant to individual users rather than businesses or the wider industry (example)
I look for tips, sites, and tools that a casual user can easily figure out.
For a complete overview, start here:
âHow often will I get emails?â
I send out two emails a week:
Thursdays:
Why Try AI, where I typically dive into a single topic.
Sundays:
Sunday Rundown, where I catch you up on the weekâs developments.
In addition to regular posts, I may occasionally send a âHot Takeâ where I test and comment on a recently released tool, model, or product.
You can decide exactly which of my emails to receive by visiting www.whytryai.com/account and toggling the appropriate âNotificationsâ:
âIs it free?â
Almost all of it, yes!
Thursday posts are free for everyone.
Sunday columns contain a free âNewsâ segment and a paid âSunday Bonusâ segment.
Paid subscribers also get lots of other cool perks.
