After nearly half a year of fermentation, AIGC has rapidly descended from a technological concept to the general public, and has even become a "distinguished school" whose influence cannot be underestimated. From community forums to social platforms, discussions about AI have spread Come.

In the past, there were beautiful Internet celebrities who used AI technology to "clone" themselves, dating thousands of boyfriends at the same time, earning 5 million a month, and using new technologies to explore the "money-absorbing method"; later, AI singers such as AI Stefanie Sun and AI Jay Chou performed AI cover songs The wind is impacting the crumbling Chinese music scene. What's more, with the support of AI technology, various games such as AI calculation of horoscopes and AI prediction of baby's growth have been unlocked. The concept of "digital life" has also become more operable in the exploration of AI.

At the beginning of ChatGPT's debut, it laid the foundation for the dissemination of the AIGC era in the form of high-level AI-generated papers. As the AI generation tools represented by ChatGPT and Midjourney further sink to C-end users, and the help of the open source community simplifies the access path of AI tools, the fission propagation speed of this technology is further catalyzed.

The keys of cutting-edge technology are distributed to ordinary users, infinitely magnifying the liberating power of technology. To this end, Chop Master sorted out 15 popular AI tools on the entire network, and observed how AIGC detonated the C-end scene.

01 Social and entertainment have become popular tracks

If you want to capture the hearts of C-end users, social networking and entertainment are still a convenient path for AI technology to reach the public. In view of this, in the social and entertainment track, the emergence of AI applications is also amazing.

AI virtual chat and interaction are the most common AI implementation scenarios. Apps such as Glow and DreamGF.ai are built on the basis of interactive chat conversations with virtual robots, and even sparked discussions on the concept of digital life. Beyond the physical, the development of generative AI is redefining life.

The peak of the domestic popularity of AI virtual chat is an AI attempt by Wu Wuliu, the UP master of station B. He used AI technology tools such as Midjourney, ChatGPT and D-ID to generate a virtual digital human modeled on grandma. resurrected" his recently deceased grandma.

In the video, the AI grandma can fluently answer questions that fit the context, patiently advise the child to "don't drink, save money, and don't play cards", and can also clearly answer the prepared New Year's goods - "75 yuan a pot Oil". Relying on the various information preserved by grandma when she was alive, AI learned the characteristics of grandma, and also reproduced her voice and smile when she was alive.

Glow, an APP that focuses on emotional companionship, is already trying to use AI tools to realize the emotional sustenance of users. Glow uses conversational chat as its main product feature. However, Glow allows users to independently set the gender and personality of the chat robot. Before using the product, users can set a series of characteristics of the chatbot in the form of selecting tags, and can also use text descriptions to set the detailed characteristics of the chatbot.

Many users have also "cloned" AI relatives with the help of Glow's product design. Different from Wu Wuliu's series of complex operations, Xia Xia "recreated" Grandpa's voice just by relying on the character label on Glow and a few words of description, "When I heard Grandpa's voice again, I immediately shed my voice." I shed tears, I was really touched."

In addition to technical means to reproduce the voices and smiles of relatives, some users use AI technology to inject life into the "paper people" in novels and comics. By describing the character and appearance of the "paper man", AI technology can also realize the cross-dimensional immortality of the paper man.

In Glow, AI paper people are also very common. At the beginning of the user's use of the product, the "world view" of the intelligent body can be set, including urban, campus, fairy, magic, interstellar, etc., and according to the settings of different world view styles, the corresponding derived chatbots will naturally bring Has its temperament.

Xiao Zhang used Glow to create his favorite paper man character - Huacheng in "Blessings of Heavenly Officials". "Every time I'm chatting, I can't help but be curious about how many web articles this AI has eaten, and what it says is like an Internet article." Xiao Zhang said to the owner that no matter the intelligent body recommended by Glow, Or the dialogue performance of chatbots, all show signs of wanting to please fans of the two-dimensional and otomexiang, "This kind of users should be the target audience of Glow."

However, after several chats, Xiao Zhang ended the conversation with AI Huacheng. "Without any picture sense and situational design, pure dialogue and chatting are really shameful." Xiao Zhang also added that AI Huacheng has a temperament derived from a large number of Internet articles, which has lost the flavor of the original work. , "It's better to let the paper man live in my heart forever."

If Glow regards two-dimensional women as the core audience, DreamGF.ai hits the needs of male users. It can be called an AI girlfriend generator. Users can customize their girlfriend's appearance, personality, preferences, etc., directly satisfying otaku " Daily watch" Goddess needs.

In addition to emphasizing social attributes, AI has also spread to vertical entertainment projects.

"Heartbeat" uses AI tools to help Kpop lovers better get started with dancing; "BodyPark" combines AI with real-person personal training to realize AI-assisted fitness competitions; "Shencai PromeAI" focuses on the field of intelligent image processing, which can Quickly produce animations and emoticons to help netizens improve their combat effectiveness. "Caiyun Xiaomeng" combines AI technology with online novels to enhance the user interaction of novels.

In terms of vertical projects, "AI+" does have enough imagination and appeal, and it also has a lot of gimmicks. However, in the face of the dominance of powerful tools such as ChatGPT and Midjourney, AI tools rooted in vertical projects are naturally diluted to a certain extent. Therefore, how to establish product barriers and improve user trust and dependence is exactly what these AI applications need to think about.

02 Efficiency tools and educational applications to achieve corner overtaking

After the speech of "AI will replace human beings" has calmed down, people began to think about how to use AI tools for their own use. Coupled with knowledge anxiety in society, efficiency tools and education-oriented AI applications began to spread in the user circle. popular in China.

"Call Annie" is a software that uses virtual conversations to practice English speaking. Users can have a conversation with the AI virtual person "Annie" in the form of "calling". At present, Annie's dialogue form can not only realize voice interaction, but even make video calls, helping users adjust pronunciation movements and mouth shapes at any time during the pronunciation process .

Compared with traditional online speaking application tools, Call Annie, which is injected with AI technology, can achieve fluent question and answer with users, and can actively find dialogue topics to improve learning efficiency. At the same time, Call Annie simulates the sense of real dialogue in the form of AI virtual human dialogue, which not only enhances the sense of real dialogue, but also avoids the embarrassment that may occur during the process of real dialogue. Because of this, Annie has also become popular in the English learning community and has been recognized by users, starting a wonderful battle of "AI + education".

In the more subdivided children's education track, applications such as Zhiwa and kidgeni have also made explorations.

"Smart Baby" is positioned as a "children's exclusive AI dialogue robot", and uses AI large language model, multi-modal interaction and other technologies to not only help children realize dialogue and interaction, but also further improve children's learning efficiency. "kidgeni" has narrowed its business to the field of children's art design learning. With the help of AI technology, it can realize children's imagination and release their artistic talents.

In this wave of AI, a centralized transformation is brewing on the production tool side, which is committed to greatly improving efficiency and releasing production capacity.

"Cool Table ChatExcel" is an AI-enabled form design tool developed by the Peking University team. With the help of this tool, users abandon complicated formulas and operation steps, and only need to input text instructions, and Cool Table ChatExcel will Forms can be automatically generated, truly allowing AI to be used by workers.

Similarly, "Chronicle" automatically generates PPT with the help of AI technology, allowing tens of millions of workers to escape from the nightmare of modifying PPT.

It is worth mentioning that the ability of AI technology to improve efficiency is even combined with making travel plans. Tripnotes is one of the cases. Tripnotes can automatically generate a travel plan according to the user's travel purpose, including a series of factors that need to be considered, such as the best travel route, specific time schedule, and accommodation reference. There is no doubt that this is a powerful "assistant" for strategy formulation enthusiasts.

03 The end of science is inseparable from metaphysics

Chinese people who have been infected by the drama "My fate depends on me" countless times are still obsessed with the word "destiny". Predicting the trend of numerology and decoding the maze of life are excellent topics that have been passed down for thousands of years but are still full of vitality. Of course, it is no exception in the AI era.

AI fortune-telling has become a new product of the times, and it was born from this application. This new form of fortune-telling fits the Chinese people's psychology of "spoiler life" since ancient times, and follows the objective and meticulous internal logic led by artificial intelligence technology. One of the landing scenarios among C-end users.

Xiaoqi, a post-95 girl, has believed in fleeting fortunes and horoscopes since she was a child. "I always do the math before making important decisions, such as taking exams and getting married. I also look at my fortune every month, including Career, wealth, relationship and other aspects have become the reference standard before I make any decision."

According to Xiaoqi, cyber fortune-telling is not a new concept. There have been vertical software that have hit the needs of numerology girls before, and push the fortune charts of different constellations every day, "analyze various trends, remind Mercury retrograde, and also provide precautions." However, in Xiaoqi's opinion , these contents are too general, and their reference value to individual users is questionable.

It was two months ago that Xiaoqi first used ChatGPT to calculate the horoscope. "At that time, I just came into contact with ChatGPT. On a whim, I entered my birthday horoscope and asked ChatGPT to help calculate the trend." After several adjustments by Xiaoqi , ChatGPT has been able to give a comprehensive fortune analysis.

Regarding ChatGPT’s performance in calculating horoscopes, Xiaoqi laughed and said that AI even threatened fortune tellers. "This kind of AI fortune-telling with questions and answers will give people a feeling of personal customization, and it will not be mysterious like the fortune-teller under the overpass. Every point is analyzed in a more objective and restrained way." Now, Xiaoqi has Habitually open ChatGPT for dialogue and chat.

In addition to calculating the horoscope, using AI to predict the baby's appearance has quietly become a new game.

On the social platform, some users use AI technology combined with baby four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound to predict the appearance of the baby after birth. The principle is based on the AI processing of four-dimensional color doppler ultrasound. At the current level of medical technology, the four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound can already show the facial features of the baby in the womb, but the four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound is not meticulous in showing the details.

Therefore, AI technology can extract the key features of the head, face, limbs, etc. in the four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound, and then superimpose AI technology to predict and infer them, thereby helping parents-to-be to predict the baby's appearance in advance. And this kind of "opening the blind box" style of gameplay in advance has indeed aroused the curiosity of some parents-to-be due to its novelty, and has won traffic attention.

It can be seen that the development of "AI+" tools has become the focus of the whole industry. Whether it is an instant-use tool that focuses on improving efficiency, or a lightweight AI tool that adds traffic to the body, focuses on playing tricks, and whole work, C-end users have already exploded a lot of imagination in the general direction of AI.

Who can take on demand and traffic at the same time in this wave of AI, and who can extend the appropriate business path under this trend? This is still a question that needs to be answered in time, and the contenders are eager to give an answer .
