Exciting AI tools and games you can try for free

I'm not an artist. My brain just does… No It works that way. I tried to learn Photoshop but gave up. Now, I create funny images using AI.

Some AI technology is a bit weird (like this brain-powered robot), but many of the new AI tools out there are just plain fun. Let's dive into the wide world of free resources that will help you create something cool.

20 TECHNOLOGICAL TRICKS TO MAKE LIFE BETTER, SAFER OR EASIER

Create custom music tracks

Not everyone is musically inclined, but AI makes it pretty easy to pretend that you are. At the very least, you can compose a fun tune for a loved one who needs a cheer up.

AI to test: Audio

Perfect for: Experimenting with song styles

Just give Udio a song theme and a genre, and he'll do the rest. I asked him to write a yacht rock song about a guy who loves sunsets, and he came up with two one-minute clips that were surprisingly good. You can customize the lyrics, too.

Produce quick video clips

The software built into our phones does a good job of editing the videos we shoot (like the one of you and your family on the beach), but have you ever wished you could do something a little fancier?

AI to test: In video

Perfect for: Fast content creation

TIPS TO SAVE TIME USING THE KEYBOARD

Start notice: “Cats on a Train”

Head over to Invideo to produce your own videos, no experience necessary. Your text prompts can be simple, but you'll get better results if you include more details.

You can add AI narration on top (David Attenborough's AI voice is just so good). FYI, the free account puts a watermark on your videos, but if you're just doing it for fun, it's fine.

Digital artwork draft

You don't need to be an AI expert with a paid program like Midjourney to create digital art. Here's an option that anyone can try.

AI to test: Open art

Perfect for: Illustrations and animations

Start notice: “A lush meadow with blue skies”

OpenArt starts with a simple text message, but you can modify it in many different ways, from the image style to the output size. You can also upload your own images for the AI to reference, and even include photos of yourself (or friends and family) in the artwork.

If you've caught the AI creativity bug and want more of the same, try OpenArt's sketch-to-image generator. Turn your original drawings into complete digital works of art.

YOUR BANK WANTS YOUR VOICE. JUST SAY NO.

More fun with free AI

Maybe creating videos and artwork isn't your thing. There's still plenty of fun to be had with AI.

Good time for children and adults: Quick Draw! by Google. Try to get the AI to recognise your doodles before time runs out in this next-gen Pictionary-style game.
Expose your child to different languages: Another Google option, Thing Translator, lets you take a photo of something to hear the word that describes it in another language. Nice!
Warm up your vocal cords: Freddimeter uses artificial intelligence to assess your ability to sing like Freddie Mercury. Options include “Don't Stop Me Now,” “We Are the Champions,” “Bohemian Rhapsody,” and “Somebody To Love.”
