Show Notes
AI is steadily infiltrating every corner of our lives, promising more efficient ways of doing things. With the immense popularity of TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube shorts, the need for snappy, quick video snippets that can showcase your podcast quickly has become almost a necessity for discoverability.
We know from our episode on Gen Z listening behaviour, that they rely heavily on social media to find out about new episodes or shows (as do other generations). if you’re not showing up on these platforms, you’re going to have a more challenging time being found.
In my quest to find tools that can assist the DIY podcaster, I've put a couple of popular AI video snippet creation tools Vidyo and Opus Clips to the test. But do they really live up to the hype?
As it stands, AI video snippet tools have room for improvement. With Vidyo earning a grade of "C" and Opus Clips a "D" in my review, there’s a clear indication that while AI is making strides, the human touch remains irreplaceable. Still, for those on a tight budget or time constraints, they can be a valuable tool in your kit.
For a proper review of me using these tools check out my deep dive on YouTube where I compare these tools in action.
Remember, technology is always evolving. So while these tools might not be perfect today, who knows what the future holds?
