The new ChatGPT app is here and is set to revolutionize how you interact with AI. It reminds me of the computer on Star Trek, where you can activate and interact just by using your voice. The app comes with a fresh, user-friendly design that makes chatting with ChatGPT smoother and more intuitive. With faster response times and an offline mode, you can get the answers you need, even without an internet connection. Plus, the app now supports rich media, so you can share images and videos directly in your conversations, making your interactions more dynamic and engaging.
The new app also brings a highly personalized experience to the table. You can customize the look and feel to match your style and integrate it seamlessly with your favorite tools and apps. Security has been beefed up, ensuring your data and conversations are well-protected. Whether you’re using it on your phone, tablet, or desktop, the multi-device sync keeps everything consistent across all your gadgets. Download the new ChatGPT app today and experience a whole new level of AI-powered communication!

Miro is one of those tools that gets me so excited about the possibilities and how it can help teams get stuff done because it works transparently, for the most part, and allows you to create, brainstorm, gather feedback or quickly collaborate on the next steps. The tool works via your browser or you can download an app for your desktop or mobile device. If you have an Apple Pencil, Surface Pen, or similar you can draw, annotate more naturally on screengrabs, elements, or just write some notes.
In the past 90 days Miro has launched several new features:
It allows you to invite additional non-registered users for collaborating, gathering data, and participation without having to add them to a paid plan. This is a game-changer that opens up the possibilities of how you utilize the platform outside your primary team.
Visual tables which allow you to use rows and columns to organize text, graphics, icons, and screengrabs
Attention management which allows the board owner to gather all collaborators to a particular part fo the board to focus their attention
More integrations including Jira, Confluence, Trello, Airtable, Notion
Use your mobile device to convert handwritten stickies to virtual sticky notes that are editable
How I Use Miro:
Team brainstorming where we review concepts, gather ideas, organize concepts
Tracking stakeholder meetings, notes, and export as PDFs to share post meetings
Brainstorming: voting via collaborators
Quick wireframing using the PEN tool and lo-fi using the add-on
Creating tables to organize ideas
Moodboards to capture concepts, research, and feedback
Webinars to involve participants in sharing, brainstorming and collaborating
Working with journey mapping and mind maps for projects
Capturing stickies from my wall to share with remote team
