How To Use AI To Generate A Professional Marketing Brochure Using Just A Profile Photo and A Single Background Image

---------------------------------------------------------------------
I had an interesting encounter with AI yesterday.
I was looking at designing a cover page for my course preview content (embeded below).
Grok Imagine
I thought of Grok initially, as I happened to generate a professional fashion show clip with just a product image with it recently.
But Grok Imagine gave me this right after I uploaded my image without any prompt:
Frankly, I was amazed listening to the "script" it generated.
Look like me, sound not like me, and not me saying that! 😅
Since I been there, I generated somehow considered a good teaser video clip, with the same profile image.
For originality concern, I asked Gemini to use one of my travel photos I took during my stay at Avani Sepang Goldcoast Resort Overwater Villas as background instead.
I didn't manage to get the front cover design done with Grok.
Then I switched to Gemini.
Google AI Studio
This is how the conversation started:
Me: Create a professional course flyer for Udemy online course on "Travel Blog Mastery: Launch, Grow & Monetize Your Website with HowTze.com as Case Study" where Course Instructor is Koh How Tze (attached profile image)
Gemini: Sure! Here's a professional course flyer for your Udemy online course, featuring Koh How Tze as the instructor and HowTze.com as the case study. I've designed it to be engaging and informative for potential students.
The first version looks like this:
And the second version be like:
After a few more "ding-dong", I got the versions (yes, not one, but a few) I wanted and put the most suitable one to my course preview document.
The process is just like talking to a poster designer, and you get the result instantly.
That's the kind of efficiency we are getting nowadays.
- No human factor (emotional communication etc.)
- No lag (almost instant, can be done within minutes, provided you have the ability to give very clear instructions)
- No tech jargon (human language communication)
- No mistake (almost, as it pretty much depends on your instruction)*
* though some typo found when double checked.
And I managed to complete another progressive day by getting the work done and uploaded, as embeded here:
Gemini vs Grok vs ChatGPT
As per Gemini's AI Overview:
Gemini, Grok, and ChatGPT differ primarily in their strengths and integrations:
- Gemini is strong for real-time information via Google Search integration,
- Grok excels at conversational, witty, and "edgy" responses, particularly on the X platform, and
- ChatGPT is a versatile all-rounder favored for structured content like writing and coding
