Quick, Draw!
AI tries to guess what you're drawing in real-time
Using AI and clever design, Quick Draw turns simple sketching into an entertaining challenge. The system watches your doodles in real time and tries to figure out what you're drawing. Even though it's not perfect, the times when it gets confused actually make the whole thing more enjoyable, creating a fun back-and-forth between you and the computer.
This Google experiment shows how AI can be playful and engaging rather than just technical. As you keep drawing different things, you're actually helping the system learn and get better at recognizing sketches. It's pretty amazing to see machine learning at work in such a simple and entertaining way. The team behind it (Google Creative Lab and Data Arts) managed to create something that makes AI feel approachable and fun rather than complicated.
Give it a shot - you might be surprised at how well (or humorously badly) the AI guesses your drawings. Whether it figures out your sketches or not, it's a great way to spend some time and see firsthand how artificial intelligence works in a really casual setting.

TalkToTransformer
AI text generator creates stories and poems for fun
InferKit which was once a super popular AI writing tool has now retired from the scene. It gave us countless hours of fun by creating stories poems and all kinds of creative text adventures but with AI tech moving so fast, InferKit started feeling a bit dated. The team behind it simply said "it's time to move on to better tools" and they're right because there are tons of new and improved AI toys waiting to spark our creativity.
This isn't really a sad ending though. InferKit might be gone but there's still so much excitement in the world of AI creativity. The cool thing about AI writing tools is that they keep getting better and better. So if you enjoyed making up stories with InferKit you'll probably love what's out there now. There are lots of other options that can help you write wild stories create funny poems or just play around with AI-generated text.
