In this video, I explore the practical application of AI in image generation, an effective alternative to traditional stock photography. The live tutorial uses the Midjourney AI tool to create an image of a beautiful New England home for an email marketing campaign, demonstrating the speed and uniqueness of AI-generated images.

Navigating through these AI-produced visuals, we notice some weirdness, yet the AI’s ability to generate unique, copyright-free images stands out as a significant advantage. Despite a few quirks, these images provide a unique touch, each prompt producing slightly different yet cool results.

Within 6 minutes, the required images for the campaign are good to go, highlighting the practicality of AI in everyday digital marketing tasks. Stay tuned for more insights on AI applications in digital marketing.
