This Pavane song will go well with today’s post:
Alright, here’s the list!
1. Make use of ingredients at home with Be My Chef
I cook for myself any many a times I run into the problem of not knowing what to cook for the day. This website is a super helpful solution to that problem - just enter the available ingredients at home, and it gives you an AI generated list of possible recipes, along with time taken to prepare each. Click through a recipe you find the most attractive, and it shows you the prep instructions.
Simple, intuitive, and something that impacts a real use case. Try it out now!
2. AI in Youtube
The Youtube team is testing out two powerful new AI driven features, so they should be on the way for all users soon. The first is an ability to search for a song just by humming it into the search bar. This sounds great for those times when you have a tune stuck in your head but can’t quite remember the song.
The second feature is AI auto-generated summaries for videos. These summaries are different and are over and above the video descriptions that are written by the creators themselves. Imagine having this feature handy when you have 10 minutes for a 40 minute video, or when you are trying to see whether a video is worth your time or not. Super excited for this feature!
3. A magical translation tool by Meta
Seamless by Meta is an experimental tool that supports translation of nearly 100 input and 35 output languages. Basically, speak a sentence in multiple languages to the tool, and it will translate it in up to 3 languages of your choice!
Here’s what the team at Meta has to say about this amazing tool:
“Building a universal language translator, like the fictional Babel Fish in The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, is challenging because existing speech-to-speech and speech-to-text systems only cover a small fraction of the world’s languages. SeamlessM4T represents a significant breakthrough in the field of speech-to-speech and speech-to-text by addressing the challenges of limited language coverage and a reliance on separate systems, which divide the task of speech-to-speech translation into multiple stages across subsystems. These systems can leverage large amounts of data and generally perform well for only one modality. Our challenge was to create a unified multilingual model that could do it all. We believe the work we’re announcing today is a significant step forward in this journey.”
Love that they invoked the Babel Fish from H2G2. My favorite series of scifi books in the world!

Cool AI Resources is my monthly column that shares with you some of the most useful tools available to us consumers from the world of generative AI and Machine Learning. I hope you learned something new today from this article about this beautiful world of AI and how to use and understand it better.
That’s it for the twenty ninth draft, see you next week!

Cool AI Resources 2
2 months ago, I shared a few “Cool AI Resources” with you with the intent of making it a monthly thing. But at the end of April, I got too tempted to share my thoughts on AI taking everyone’s jobs, so here we are at the end of May. Let’s dig in! Please don’t forget to share your feedback in the comments - what do you think about this format? Any suggesti…
Cool AI Resources 1
I’m experimenting with a new format for Future Telescope. At the end of every month, I’ll share 5 “Cool AI Resources” that you can leverage. Here’s today’s edition. Please don’t forget to share your feedback in the comments - what do you think about this format? Any suggestions on how to improve it?
