Hello readers,
We are living in an amazing era of technology where new innovations from different sectors, from Industrial to healthcare, Art and Content creation and science fields etc. are coming out every day and transforming our lives. Recently, the groundbreaking discovery of the AI realm is the most astonishing thing that we have experienced in this decade. No doubt it is silently changing our lives completely by turning complex things into easy tasks and thus simplifying our jobs. AI stands for Artificial Intelligence where a machine or digital program has given us the ability to think on its own and solve problems for us semi or fully automatically. Though this technology is only at its beginning phase and taking baby steps at the current time, but some of them are already making a difference in our everyday lives by helping us to achieve more efficiency while reducing work time. In this post, I am going to talk about one such AI project that I use on a daily basis and will share how it is helping me to increase my work quality while reducing my work time significantly. So without further ado, let us jump right in!
Using AI tools
I am a blog writer and write long-form blog articles on different topics such as crypto, finance, Web3, crypto and NFT-based projects, photography and blogs related to my personal life sometimes as well and publish them on the Hive platform just like many of you. From my years of writing experience, I have realized the importance of Thumbnails in blog articles because no matter how cool your post is, if you don't have an attractive thumbnail attached to it, chances are fewer people will actually click on your post and have a read or interact with your content. That’s why I always try to create eye catchy thumbnails to attract viewers to land upon my posts and if you are also a blog writer just like me, I would have also felt the difference between a blog with a cool thumbnail and without one. Not only in Hive but if you look in every content creation platform currently available on the internet such as YouTube, Blogger, Medium etc, you will find out that most of the content that gets significantly higher views or generates more revenue tends to have a unique thumbnail on them. Whenever a user browses such platforms, the first thing that comes to his sight is these thumbnail images, even before the title so thumbnails are undoubtedly the first element to hook your viewer. So if you are into the world of content creation and make blogs or videos, you must focus on making attractive eye eye-catching thumbnails to gather more traffic in your content.
Remove.bg
Now in order to make eye-catching custom thumbnails, I always use the Canva website because it is free to use and comes with most of the elements and options that you will need to create a decent thumbnail image. But one important thing that does not come in the free version is the background removal option. For example, let’s say I want to remove the background of the monster picture element shared below and just want it with a transparent background and use the element in my thumbnail. But I couldn’t do it in the free version of Canva, so what I use is an amazing AI tool called Remove.bg to perform this particular task and as a result, I get images with background removed with just one click and just in a second and the best part of it is that it is free to use!
Utility
The remove.bg is a free-to-use AI tool website that can erase or detach background from images very quickly with a single click. It is made in such a way to detect and differentiate between the front object and the background using artificial intelligence and it is specially made to be useful for photographers, designers and many other users like you and me. This tool leverages Artificial Intelligence to bring out precise and accurate results within the blink of an eye and save your precious time in image editing. From my years of experience, I rarely have encountered any problem while using this tool and even if on rare occasions it can’t identify an image properly, you can just use the erase/restore feature to rectify these small errors and get your desired result quickly.
Global Recognition
Not only individuals like you and me but some of the world-class companies also happen to be using this tool and as you can see in the screenshot above, the CEOs or other high positions of these companies or institutions can also be seen praising this tool for its valuable utility.
