Depending which report/source you look at, the current number of AI tools fits somewhere between 12,000 to 90,000+. This make it exceedingly difficult to learn them all. Or even to learn which are better than the other for any specific task. AI tools are far more than fancy Google searches, of course they do that as well but that is merely scratching the surface of what is possible.

In the rapidly growing space of AI everything, the prompt is king. It is the question/request you ask of an AI tool, in the hope you get an accurate answer. The more detailed and specific you get, often times the better the output I am in a build-a-thon style program at present with Lovable, it's an AI app builder. It's been a lot of fun and a massive learning curve. I have twice built something so far, only to realise I need market to buy it, not just making a cool tool. I know this but it has been a stark reminder because you can build and iterate so quickly and cheaply. These tools are not free, even though some have free access to begin with, it's a much better experience and output if you are on the paid version. I pay for Lovable and Grok at the moment. I have also been using Claude, Open AI, Co-Pilot and Gemini, Builder & DataButton Comment what systems you have tried

Currently I have the following AI tools in use regularly; - Grok - paid - Gemini - paid, as part of my Google Workplace subscription - NotebookLLM - paid, as part of my Google Workplace subscription - Perplexity - paid, including their Comet browser - Replit - paid Keep an eye out for more posts for expansion on the various platforms. I have also pinned this post and I will update and change it as I explore more tools.

I know, it's different again. Tweaking and iteration are all part of being online.
