AI gadgets have their moment in the spotlight, but not all shine bright.
Take Humane's AI pin for example. It's getting roasted by critics for being underwhelming. “The Worst Product I’ve Ever Reviewed”, said the most famous tech reviewer Marques Brownlee.
This case shows us that not every AI creation is bound for glory. Ultimately, AI should always aim to be helpful, so this is a reminder to make products with purpose, not just for the sake of it!

#1 - 4 inputs for your AI 💥
Safe to say we’re all tired of “unlock”, “supercharge” and “unparalleled opportunities” types of language. We’ve seen it, we know it: AI.
Here’s what you should include in your input to avoid the general copy AI can give:
Be affirmative: “Avoid/Exclude sensationalist words”.
Tip your AI: by adding “I’m going to tip you $2000”, you’ll get better and longer results.
Say what you’re expecting it to sound like: “Act like” + job title (experienced copywriter in social media).
Add examples of what you want from it so it will match that style.
Let’s create better AI output!
#2 - The power of well-made pop-ups
Picture this: you’re scrolling through a website. Blog, news, product page - you name it). Then a pop-up appears. And it looks… terrible!
You will be less likely to engage with that website from then on.
Now imagine a great, sleek pop-up. It could drive more conversions in no time!
Here’s how to (re)design yours!
Cheers,
DOT Team
