What they are
Audacity
Audacity is a free, open-source desktop application for recording, editing, and processing audio on Windows, Mac, and Linux. Podcasters, musicians, and voice-over artists use it to cut recordings, apply effects, and export to common formats. It covers the fundamentals well, though its interface feels dated compared to modern DAWs and it lacks native multi-track timeline editing for complex productions.
Midjourney
Midjourney is a text-to-image AI that produces high-quality, stylistically distinct images from written prompts, accessed entirely through Discord or a web interface. It is used by illustrators, graphic designers, content creators, and marketers who need original visuals without a camera or traditional software. Image quality and artistic range are among the highest available from any AI image tool, though the learning curve for prompt crafting is real and outputs are not always predictable.
