What they are

Claude

Claude is an AI assistant from Anthropic that handles writing, research, analysis, coding, and brainstorming through a chat interface. Creators use it to draft scripts, repurpose content, summarize research, and work through ideas. It stands out for following complex instructions and maintaining context across long documents, though it has no live internet access by default and cannot publish or post content directly.

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.
