Talk About IceBreaker

Talk About IceBreaker

Talk About - IceBreaker Problems being solved 👋 Many people spend a lot of their initial meeting time just asking alot of questions that may or may not be productive. This tool gives you something to break the ice and talk about during the meeting so nothing that is important is missed. Can be use for dating, business, or just meeting new people. This project is also a simple proof of concept on an alternative way people might be able to connect with each other. E.g. not the boring LinkedIn profile style. It also allows a user to naturally specify in natural language and freely talk about themselves.

Text tab: use good writing feature to generate tone for characters' conversation. Because characters have different personalities, some seem formal when they speak, some seem casual... like that. Film makers write in their own tone. Then AI21 will adjust it, in order to make characters more real. Voice tab: use text to speech to create voice for characters, so that film makers don't have to hire voice actors/actresses?

PromptifyAI

Promptify.ai provides a solution to accomodate the need to generate good prompts to utilize the state of the art text to images technologies such as Stable Diffusion and DALL-E 3. Promptify.ai generates prompts from long paragraphs for use in text to image models. Promptify.ai have a potential application in generating concept arts from novels for adaptation to video games and animation. We used the j1-grande-instruct to summarize a given paragraph to a prompt which could be used to generate images with other machine learning models. The results showed that Promptify.ai are able to generate a prompt discribing the scenery but still lacks the ability to describe the technical aspects of the image.

The name of our program is Tokomani. One of the biggest problems of our modern society is the mismanagement of time. This problem in itself creates huge problems for every member of the society and leads to bigger problems. Every modern problem requires a modern solution. We have developed a program to solve this problem. In our program, people save time and make accurate time allocations by setting daily or weekly routines. We develop the app in Android Studio and use Java to debug it in Android Studio. Our app is currently only available for Android systems, but we expect it to be available on IOS and other devices in the future

NewSum

NewSum

It is vital to receive daily news, yet in today's fast-paced global culture, people frequently do not have enough time. Furthermore, few media sites use catchy titles to draw attention, which frequently wastes readers' time. We developed a proprietary Ai21 model to summarise any new technical or political article and provide insights in less than two sentences. It was trained on a dataset of roughly 13,000 news stories, and its summary was optimised for use in Ai21. It makes use of j-1 Grande and is trained by uploading the dataset directly. Summarizing is essential since it delivers all of the important points and insights from the content. It saves time and safeguards against false information.

The existing search bar in most websites performs keyword search. A slow and arduous process in which the user has to read through a myriad of information before finding the tidbit that they wanted in the first place.

It allows you to find specific information, provides answers in a clear, understandable way and includes sources and more information should the user need it. Presenting Web Indexer. Developed to significantly improve the user experience by providing a service that ChatGPT, Google and standard search bars cannot.
