"The magic isn't in any single tool. It's in knowing which ones belong together."
In this Beacon, you won't learn a new tool.
You already have everything you need.
Instead, you'll put it all together.
You'll take one small, real-life project β and use the tools you've met throughout this course to bring it to life, step by step.
By the end, you'll see how AI tools don't just work alone β they work together.
Imagine you want to create a short personal newsletter β something you could send to friends, share online, or just keep for yourself.
Here's what goes into it:
That's three tools. Three skills. One project.
You've already met all of them:
βοΈ Text β Gemini, ChatGPT or Claude
π¨ Image β Leonardo AI or any image tool from the course
π Audio β ElevenLabs
No new sign-ups. No new interfaces. Just tools you already know.
You'll build your mini-newsletter in three steps. Take your time β there's no rush.
Pick a topic that feels personal to you. Here are some ideas:
"Open your favourite AI writing tool from the course and paste this promptβ¦β
Copy the result. You'll use it in Step 3.
Go to https://app.leonardo.ai
Use this ready-made prompt β or adapt it to match your topic:
Download the image when you're happy with it.
Go to https://elevenlabs.io
Paste the text you got from Step 1 into the text box.
Choose a voice you like, then click Generate.
Listen back. Does it sound like something you'd actually want to hear?
If yes β you're done. β
Screens and menus may look slightly different β that's normal. Just explore and you'll find your way. π
Look at what you just made.
You started with an idea β and ended up with a piece of writing, a visual, and a voice.
Each tool did one thing. But together, they made something complete.
Notice how the tools didn't fight each other β the text fed the audio, the topic shaped the image. That's not a coincidence. That's what it looks like when you're in control.
The bigger insight: you were the creative director the whole time.
This kind of "AI workflow" β where one tool's output becomes another tool's input β is how a lot of real creative work gets done today.
You don't need to use every tool every time. Some projects only need one. Some need three.
The point is: you now know how to choose.
You just connected the dots. π
That wasn't just an exercise β it was a real creative project, made with real tools, by you.
One Beacon left.
In Beacon 30 β Who are you now?, we'll look back at everything you've done β and you'll draw your own personal AI map.
No rush. Come back whenever you're ready. 🙂
