But could it help save me time?

That's why I was so excited to get my hands on Google's new AI chatbot, Google Bard. It's similar to other AI-powered text generation tools like ChatGPT , but it's supposed to pack the power of Google Search —where I spend most of my time—into a conversational bot. It's intuitive, with no room for confusion.

Midjourney is one my favorite AI image generators —and I've used a lot of them. It arguably produces the best results and would be my overall top pick for basically anyone if using it wasn't so…weird. There is a reason that Midjourney uses Discord—even if it seems a little convoluted from the outside.

Ask any AI chatbot a question, and its answers are either amusing, helpful, or just plain made up. Because AI tools like ChatGPT work by predicting strings of words that it thinks best match your query, they lack the reasoning to apply logic or consider any factual inconsistencies they're spitting out.
