5. How to choose the right artificial intelligence tools and platforms to suit our needs
Hi everyone! I'm Attila from Hungary, and in this video, we'll discuss how to choose the right artificial intelligence (AI) tools and platforms to suit our needs. We'll explore how to assess our needs, what types of AI tools and platforms exist, and what criteria to consider when making our selection.
First, let's clarify what problem we want to solve, what tasks we want to use AI for, what data we have, what level of technical knowledge we possess, and what our budget is. For example, if we want to automate customer service, we can use chatbots like Dialogflow or Rasa. If we want to organize images, we can use image recognition software like Google Cloud Vision API or Amazon Rekognition. If we want to analyze texts, we can use text analysis tools like IBM Watson Natural Language Understanding.
We'll also look at the different types of AI tools and platforms, such as cloud-based AI platforms (Google Cloud AI, Amazon SageMaker, Microsoft Azure Machine Learning) and custom AI solutions (DALL-E, Stable Diffusion). It's important to consider functionality, user-friendliness, and costs. Always test the tools before making a final decision, and think about our future needs as well.
In summary, choosing the right AI tool and platform requires thorough planning, understanding the possibilities, and quality control. Remember, the most important thing is that the tool meets our needs and goals.

Now, let's take a closer look at the different types of AI tools and platforms to better understand what options are available to us.
Welcome to this special lesson where I will guide you into the world of artificial intelligence. Nowadays, AI is like a magical toolbox full of better and better tools. But to choose the right tool, you first need to know what you want to build, right?
Assessing needs: the blueprint
Imagine you want to build a house. First, you need to plan what kind of house you want: whether it's small or large, whether it has a pool or a garden, and of course, how much money you want to spend on it. It's the same with AI. First, you need to clarify what you want to use it for:
What problem do you want to solve? For example, do you want to automate customer service?
What data do you have? Do you have images you want to recognize? Or texts you want to analyze?
How much money do you want to spend on it? Like building a house, the budget is important here too.
Let's delve a little deeper into defining your needs and goals, because this is the most important step in choosing the right AI tools.
What problem do we want to solve?
This is like going to the doctor. First, we need to tell them what's wrong so they can prescribe the right treatment. It's the same with AI. For example:
Automating customer service: If we need to answer many customer questions, a chatbot can help, such as Dialogflow or Rasa.
Organizing images: If we want to organize many photos, image recognition software might be the solution, such as Google Cloud Vision API or Amazon Rekognition.
Analyzing texts: If we want to analyze many documents, a text analysis tool can help, such as IBM Watson Natural Language Understanding.
What tasks do we want to use AI for?
This is closely related to the previous point. For example:
Forecasting: Do we want to forecast product demand? Machine learning platforms are suitable for this, such as Azure Machine Learning or DataRobot.
Recommendations: Do we want to provide personalized product recommendations to customers? Recommendation systems are suitable for this, such as TensorFlow Recommenders.
Content generation: Do we want to automatically generate texts or images? Generative AI models are suitable for this, such as GPT-3 or DALL-E.
What data do we have?
Data is the fuel of AI. The more and better quality data we have, the better the AI will work. For example:
Structured data: Data stored in tables or databases. These are easy to analyze.
Images and videos: These can be analyzed with image and video recognition models.
Texts: These can be analyzed with text analysis models.
What level of technical knowledge do we have?
This determines what type of AI tool we can use. For example:
Beginners: If we don't have programming knowledge, it's worth using ready-made applications or cloud-based platforms.
Advanced: If we have programming knowledge, we can use open-source frameworks.
Experts: If we have in-depth knowledge, we can develop our own AI solutions.
What is our budget?
The price of AI tools can vary greatly. For example:
Free tools: There are free open-source tools and platforms.
Cloud-based services: These usually operate on usage-based pricing.
Custom solutions: These are the most expensive, but the most customizable.
Concrete examples:
If a small business wants to automate its customer service, it can use Dialogflow to create a simple chatbot.
If a photographer wants to organize their images, they can use the image recognition feature of Google Photos.
If a marketer wants to provide personalized product recommendations to customers, they can use TensorFlow Recommenders.
Types of various AI tools and platforms
As I mentioned earlier, AI tools and platforms range widely, and depending on the task we want to use them for, we can choose from different types.
Cloud-based AI platforms
These platforms are like modern, well-equipped hardware stores where we can find everything in one place. The advantage of cloud-based platforms is that we don't need to build our own infrastructure, and the service provider takes care of maintenance and updates. Some examples:
Google Cloud AI: Google's cloud-based AI platform, which offers many services, such as image and video recognition, text analysis, and machine learning.
Amazon SageMaker: Amazon's cloud-based AI platform, which enables the fast and easy development and deployment of machine learning models.
Microsoft Azure Machine Learning: Microsoft's cloud-based AI platform, which can be integrated with other Azure services and offers many machine learning tools.
Customized AI Solutions
These solutions are like custom-made furniture designed specifically for our needs. The advantage of customized AI solutions is that they are the most customizable, but they are also usually the most expensive.
Examples based on topics provided by students:
Illustrator looking for illustration work: The illustrator can use AI image generation tools, such as DALL-E or Stable Diffusion, to gain inspiration or even create complete illustrations.
Selling graphics online: To sell graphics, the illustrator can use platforms integrated with AI image processing tools to automatically enhance their products. The illustrator can also use AI tools that translate text embedded in images or even adapt the style of images to the typographic styles of other languages.
Selection criteria: quality control
Of course, the quality of the tools you choose matters. Let's look at what to pay attention to:
Functionality: Does the tool do what you need it to do? For example, if you want to recognize images, does the tool have image recognition capability?
User-friendliness: Is the tool easy to use? Is it like a handy screwdriver or more like a complex structure?
Cost: Is the tool worth the price? Is it like a cheap but poor-quality tool, or rather a more expensive but durable piece?
The importance of testing: trial run
Before making a final decision, it's always worth trying out the tool. It's like a test drive with a car. See if it meets your expectations and if it works well.
Future needs: the possibility of expansion
Think about the future too! You may want to expand the house later or need new tools. Choose a tool that can evolve and expand.
In summary:
Choosing the right AI tool and platform is like building a good house: it requires thorough planning, understanding the possibilities, and quality control. Remember, the most important thing is that the tool meets your needs and goals.
