New ThingLink AI Assistant – Your Trusted Guide to Ignite Inspiration

Louise Jones June 27, 2023

In 2023 our team initiated a series of webinars, fostering a dialogue with creators on the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools into their work. ThingLink Founder and CEO Ulla-Maaria Koivula, at the same time highlighted three guiding principles: transparency, privacy, and control, ensuring responsible AI usage.

Following these conversations and underpinned by these principles, we are now introducing a set of impressive AI-powered features, offering content creators the means to jump start their creative journey.

ThingLink AI Assistant – Content Creation Tools

In ThingLink you now have the option to generate your own images or 360 images as your base media, harnessing the AI power of text image generation. Read more about this incredible new feature here!

Within the ThingLink’s Scenario Builder and Editor you also now have the options to use AI to generate:

• Tag Suggestions
• Suggest Branches
• Generate Questions
• Write a Recap

• Improve Writing 

• Suggest a matching image 

• Convert text to a thinglink scene (using text to image AI)

Privacy, Control and Access

Firstly, your data remains yours. The AI Assistant tools work via ThingLink’s own installation of OpenAI, meaning data stays within ThingLink.

ThingLink School or Organization accounts will have the option to turn off AI functionality for the entire team, school, campus or organization. Simply head to your organization settings. Please note: The ThingLink AI Assistant tools is available to students too, your account administrator has full control to enable this for your school.

What are the benefits of the AI Assistant Tools?

We understand from our community that sometimes getting-going with the content creation process can pose a challenge if you’re starting out with ThingLink. The new AI Assistant suggests up to nine tags that can be edited or deleted, simply enter a little detail about your project or your ideas as a simple text prompt. To provide additional context and to ensure higher accuracy and detail, you also have the option of uploading your own PDF, currently up to 25MB. Give it a try! Take a look at our 90 second overview below:

The AI Assistant simply helps speed up the writing process for your written content. If you want to change the ai-generated content, you can – simply use the suggestions as a template to get you started. For example you may want to change the tone of voice for your piece of content to suit your target audience, or include specific product descriptions.

The new AI writing tools help you overcome writer’s block. Think of them as your writing assistants! Just as many content writers today use grammar checker tools to hone their long-form content, ThingLink’s new AI content generator tools speed up your workflow and allow you more time to get creative.

How does it work?

Like the other AI tools you may be familiar with, such as ChatGPT and Copy.AI, the ThingLink AI tools use natural language processing algorithms, where machine learning creates content based on the content brief that you provide.
