Sharing meaningful generative content on linked.in

I recently developed a proof of concept that combines mobile phones, social media, and generative AI. The Android app, called "AI-Share" for now, allows users to share online articles with a single click.

Here's how it works: you paste a URL into the app, and it downloads the article, uses a large language model to create a short summary, and then posts it on LinkedIn.

Key takeaways:

  • The app significantly speeds up posting times and improves post quality by automating summarization.
  • With multiple LLM providers offering OpenAI-compatible APIs, users can choose the one that suits them best.
  • Prices for API calls are cheap and yearly costs for using the app probably is as low as $1 per year for average-sized posts.
  • Hosting your own model is not necessary due to affordable prices and reliable data.
  • A crucial aspect to consider when implementing generative AI solutions is the integration process. While the AI technology itself can be developed quickly, the integration effort can be significant. It's essential to understand your digitization goals to choose the right AI solution that fits your strategy.

The app is not yet available in the Play Store, but I'd be happy to have some voluntary test users. If you're interested in trying the app and helping me improve it, feel free to reach out!
