In this solo ride of Matt’s Digital Odyssey, I take a detour from my usual content and dive into the growing world of AI-powered content creation tools—because let’s face it, not everyone wants to spend 12 hours editing vertical video.

I break down the ones I’ve tried, the ones I actually use, and the ones I’ll probably never touch again unless Skynet forces me to. Whether you're a fellow timeline-scrubbing video editor or just someone who wants to turn scripts into scroll-stopping content, this episode covers it all.

🛠️ Covered in this episode:

• Why Descript didn’t blow my mind (and what I prefer instead)
• The surprising power of InVideo AI for quick content generation
• How Synthesia and HeyGen could make you question reality… or at least your webcam
• My favorite AI voice tool (hint: it’s scary good)
• Why Adobe Express and Firefly are now in my regular rotation for thumbnails and social posts
• The TL;DR of my current AI content stack and what’s worth adding to yours

💬 Quick shoutouts to tools mentioned:

• Adobe Premiere Pro / Adobe Podcast / Adobe Express
• CapCut, Descript, InVideo AI, Synthesia, HeyGen
• Eleven Labs, Firefly, Canva, VistaCreate

🎧 Whether you're a seasoned creator or just starting out, these tools can help you do more with less. But remember—AI can’t make you creative, it just gives you the time to flex it.

🕹️ Oh, and Backlog Roulette is still on the way. Promise I didn’t forget.
