Wang Han is an experienced algorithm engineer and one of the first to try to write code with ChatGPT user. The effect was not ideal at the beginning, so it would be better to write it yourself. Nowadays, AI is an indispensable part of his work. The turning point began with him meeting Claude: he found that just by dismantling the project tasks into modules that can be run independently and conveying the requirements to Claude with program thinking, the resulting code can be 80% or 90% complete.
"Writing prompt words" is the most important part of practical use of AI, and has also become a new skill item that today's workplace people need to spend time to hone. In Wang Han's eyes, generative AI is like an intern who has just entered the industry but can understand it at a glance. As long as you guide patiently, you can surprise people. "I often help my colleagues optimize prompt words, and many people input the instructions to AI are still too broad."
After checking the recent data, we found the following important information [1]
1. More than 60% of workers use AI technology to improve work processes, automate daily tasks and data analysis. 2. The proportion of various AI products used in the workplace: text writing (85%), image generation (53%), video processing (54%) and PPT production (39%). 3. From January to October 2024, the number of jobs that were clearly required to use AI tools increased by 68% year-on-year, especially in the fields of products, technology, design and content production. 4. Careers with high AI-affected indexes, such as editing, translation, customer service, software and hardware development, etc., although the overall recruitment demand is showing a downward trend, the requirements for candidates for AI skills are increasing.Works who are proficient in AI usage skills can stand out from the competition. But the reality is that many people are still only stuck in the use of basic functions and fail toGive full play to the role of AI - this gap comes from information asymmetry, which will further lead to aggravation of information asymmetry. A relevant researcher from a certain AIGC Research Institute told "Workplace Bonus" that they found that most users came to the conclusion that "AI cannot do" just by trying it out. "Ordinary users often don't give AI too much patience, but this also determines that different people use AI, and the effects are very different."
In order to break this information barrier, bring people in the workplace More inspiration. "Workplace Bonus" interviewed 10 experts who used AI in daily work, and we summarized 6 types of practical AI tools for workers in daily life. There are further comparisons and ability exploration of tools familiar to "old players", and some relatively unpopular and easy-to-use tools.
[1] Information source: Qiancheng Wuyou Research Data, Liepin's "2024 Annual Extraordinary Insight Report", the "AI Big Model Potential for my country's Labor Market jointly released by the National Institute of Development of Peking University and Zhilian Recruitment Impact Research: 2024》
● First, let’s take a summary picture, and the following is a detailed explanation
6 types of workplace people are not allowed in their work Lack of AI toolsAs an application with over 100 million users in 7 days and over 20 million daily active users in 20 days, DeepSeek has been in a "busy server recently ” status.
Fortunately, many third-party APPs have now taken action to realize the local deployment of DeepSeek. For example, if you search for 360 nanometers, open the APP and you can see the top DeepSeek dialogue portal. Although the answers from the test are different from the original one, visualization and voice content are added.
● 360nm search
Floweth (https://flowth.io/blank), an AI product that focuses on thinking canvas functions, is also connected to DeepSeek. Floweth can not only produce smoothly during DeepSeek's "frequent off-duty periods", but also call on other companies' big models for Q&A.
● Floweth official website
These applications or web pages are not connected to the DeepSeek product itself, but the open source model is deployed locally, so the application effect may not be as good as the product itself. In order to optimize the product experience, DeepSeek has built-in many prompt words, so users do not need very professional prompt words to obtain content that "has the DeepSeek flavor".
Now, many companies have deployed DeepSeek big models locally, such as Geely Auto, 360, silicon-based flow, and Huawei. DeepSeek has also promoted to a certain extent that generative AI no longer forms its own track.
In the daily work of workers, Baidu Wenku is the first wave of AI functions to be launched and paidThe Quark APP has also updated its functions such as AI PPT, AI search, AI writer, AI search, etc. Feishu has Feishu's wonderful story; WPS also has AI assistants, Tencent Conference launches conference AI assistants, etc.
● Quark APP
The AI assistants currently sorting out meeting minutes, such as Feishu Miaoji (mainly voice-to-text), and Tencent Meeting AI assistant entrances are easy to find. Feishu Miaoji has a free monthly allowance (300 minutes), and if the limit exceeds the limit, you will need to pay; if the Tencent Meeting starts the Assistant directly (¥88/month).
● Flying Book Miao Ji
● Tencent Conference
But just as Baidu's "Wen Xiaoyan" assistant opened payment as soon as it was launched, users are looking forward to it after payment More efficient generation results can be obtained. However, the uncertainty of generative AI output, coupled with the dual pressure of users' immature use of mind, often cannot reach the user's satisfaction range, and paid content from major manufacturers is often criticized. This also brings opportunities to other applications on the market.
● Daily Office
In terms of handling text and data work, top players such as ChatGPT, Claude, Doubao, Kimi, Tongyi Qianwen, and DeepSeek are playing very well.
ChatGPT and Claude cannot be used directly in the country. The former has excellent comprehensive abilities, while the latter has slightly better copywriting and programming skills than ChatGPT. Relevant people shared with "Workplace Bonus" that a creator directly trained AI to write public account articles in Claude (the process will be shared in the next part). After training, Claude assistant outputs an article in a few minutes, which not only can "take it for ideology", but also has an article that has received more than 100,000 views.
But Claude's shortcomings that have troubled everyone for a long time is that he "loves to ban the account." This problem can be solved through Poe (a software that integrates AI assistant). Poe's free quota is about 3-5 times a day, and the upgrade membership fee is more than 100 yuan per month.
Doubao, the most popular domestic general assistant, is owned by Bytes, Kimi, the big model unicorn Moon Dark Surface, and Tongyi Qianwen of Alibaba, who is deeply engaged in technology. According to the overall feedback from netizens, Doubao is better at writing humanistic style than Kimi; Doubao and Tongyi Qianwen are better at writing official documents; Kimi will be more rigorous in literature search, and citing documents are all real, while Doubao is easier There is hallucination.
By the way, for literature search, some people also recommend using Bohrium (https://bohrium-doc.dp.tech/docs/).

DeepSeek's ability in copywriting creation is 90% ahead of AI, conquering many professional writers and poets, and his logical ability shocked novelists. But maybe it is the AI that has just been launched, it is stricter than several other AI modelsHeavy "illusion" problem. Sometimes when DeepSeek's answer is refuted, it may not prove it with facts, but "persuading" it with logic. Therefore, when using DeepSeek to retrieve practical problems, be careful to fall into the rigorous "illusion trap" of DeepSeek.
When you need to process a large number of documents during work, in addition to handing over the documents to general intelligent assistants such as Doubao and Kimi for summary, you can also use Noto (https://www.notion.so/) to Optimize the presentation effect of the document. The specific operation is to select some content in the document and then issue instructions to Notion AI, requiring it to "not change the original content, and optimize the layout by adding emojis, adjusting indentation, bold text, etc. to make the content look more Intuitive and cleaner”. In this way, Notion AI will retype the document according to the instructions, making the content more clear and easy to read.
Making PPTs often makes workers trouble. The Gamma (https://gamma.app/) tool can simplify the PPT layout process, so that creators can focus more on content. By quickly generating the basic framework of PPT and a unified layout format, Gamma can save users a lot of time.
(Kimi and Tongyi can also undertake some functions of making PPTs, please see the following content for the specific process)
● Gamma official website
Above Gamma official website In the lower right corner of the screenshot, the purple avatar assistant is Monica - it is a small plug-in on Google Chrome, which can realize real-time web page translation, summon AI conversation assistant at any time, etc. It can call almost all general AI assistants for conversation.
When you need to do table analysis in your office, the AI tool Formulabot (https://app.formulabot.com/) can help. Formulabot can parse the content of the table and extract the content needed by the workplace based on the content of the table to complete the office.
● Formulabot official website
If you encounter situations where you need to convert the table content into visual data, you can choose Flourish. However, the above two AI tools are both overseas web pages and can be used in China. The inconvenience is that the web page is in English. If you are a domestic replacement, you can choose SenseTime's office raccoon.
● Flourish official website
When it is necessary to analyze data and visualize data, Feishu multi-dimensional tables are a good choice. When users find suitable plug-ins in the plug-in market, they can realize the functions of AI to summarize link content, data analysis, data visualization, etc. with one click.
● Flying Book Multidimensional Table
● Search Class
In the search class, Perplexity (https://www.perplexity.ai/) can quickly integrate knowledge. In academic research, help scholars quickly screen out useful literature materials. However, the disadvantage is that overseas websites are required to log in.
● Perplexity official website
The domestic benchmark for Perplexity was the beginning of the secret tower. The Secret Tower is similar to Perplexity in terms of web visual and functional classification. However, with 360, Kimi, Doubao, Baidu, etc., also launching AI search, the advantages of the secret tower are reflected in the field of highly professional academic research.
● Midjourney is the first to bear the brunt of the image creation field and is a literary and artistic model that is more suitable for novices. It can generate high-quality pictures based on a paragraph of text. Currently, the creative process of most design, advertising, and video creators is inseparable from Midjourney.
● Midjourney official website
ComfyUI can meet users' needs for higher control. Users can build their own workflow on ComfyUI to realize personalized image production. The image generated by ComfyUI is relatively controllable, but the corresponding requirements for creators are also high, which is not easy for novices to get started.
Recraft is also a creative tool recommended by the "volume kings" in the field of graphics, and can be used for UI design and wireframe production. Each project in Recraft is highly controllable, and users can create unlimited multiple artboards to generate, edit images and other operations. The project can not only be shared with others for co-creation, but also supports adding comments, which is very suitable for teamwork.
● Video Class
In February last year, when OpenAI announced the Wensheng video model Sora, it was hailed as the disappearance moment in the industry as the "real world". Wensheng's videos have been in full swing for a year, but it was not until the end of last year that Sora slowly showed her true body.
There are many Wensheng video models in between. The domestic Kuaishou Keling was the first to emerge with its stable generation quality, followed by Minimax's conch AI and Bytes's Impression.
In terms of stability, Ke Ling is not inferior to Sora, and is even better. Conch AI and Jimeng focus on "average", with slightly weaker stability than Ke Ling.
In terms of content generation, the scene generated by dreams is relatively saturation and clarity, but lacks in character details; when generating videos, some complex interactions are handled better, The environment simulation and light and shadow effects processing capabilities are better; Conch is better at handling anime characters.
"At present, AI video creators often have members of these three companies, or try them one by one, and choose the one with the best results." Wen Sheng, who does AI advertising, told "Bonus in the Workplace".
The domestic Wensheng video model is already good enough, but the overseas Runway is also good. Runway can provide AI video polishing function, which not only supports text to video, but also supports various functions such as images to video. But its disadvantage is that its English interface has a high threshold for use.
● Runway official website
● Voice category
Last National Day, AI voice clones became popular because of AI Lei Jun. At that time, the main audio sources of AI Lei Jun came from the two platforms Reecho Ruisheng and Fish Audio. Not only that, the source of the recording fraud incident of the Three Sheep also comes from the Reecho Ruisheng platform.
● Fish Audio official website
How easy is it to clone AI sounds? Probably, it only takes a 30-second audio to clone the sound that is 80% similar to the sound source himself, and it is difficult to distinguish without listening carefully.
● Programming Class
The programming tool that is indispensable for both algorithm engineers and chip architects is Cursor. Programmers not only use Cursor to generate code, but also use Cursor to check bugs. When writing the project, they will disassemble the module like Wang Han and enter requirements into Cursor.
Xiaobai, who can't write code, can also learn Cursor proficiently through two hours of self-study. Chen Yunfei, who is a Kitten Fill Light, and Liu Yuquan, who is a Guiwu APP, are both novices who know how to program, and can "hand-pinch" the APP with 100,000 downloads through Cursor.
"Now the minds of the programming world are occupied by Cursor. If Cursor is not easy to use in China, there is usually no chance," chip architect Yiduo told "Workplace Bonus", "But Deepseek code is also a good choice.”
● Toolset
In addition to the above types, "Works Bonus" also recommends a dynamic and real-time update AI website, AI Toolset (https://ai-bot. cn/), which contains the latest AI information from multiple parties and launches new AI applications.
● AI Toolset
It turns out that AI can still be used like this< /p>
"Can AI really improve efficiency?" The answer is yes.
Xiao Fan, who is engaged in consulting business, shared with us his skills in using AI to do PPT: "You can use Kimi and Baidu's Wenxin to sort out the content of the document, summarize the PPT outline, and the big model will add some What you didn't expect makes the content more perfect. After the content is generated to a satisfactory level, you can submit the corpus to AI PPT and iSlide to complete the generation. "
The generated PPT content cannot be used directly. Depending on needs, retain colors, fonts, background images, etc., and fine-tune them in other places.. The PPT produced in this way only requires one or two people, and you can make 60 pages of PPT in one week for about 4 hours a day - this is the workload that a team could only complete for two weeks before staying up late.
Writing self-media articles with AI has also become the mainstream in the market at present. The areas that are output in this way are controversial topics such as mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationships, bride gifts, or education, and parenting. The public account articles generated by the entire AI process that Ruoxi learned previously received more than 100,000 views, and diverted more than 500 people to the manager's private domain.
"It only takes more than ten minutes of debugging, and AI can produce a hit article." Ruoxi told "Bonus in the Workplace".
In specific steps, you must first communicate with AI to let AI know what direction you want to do, the user profile you are aiming at, and what the purpose of the article is. In order to make AI understand more thoroughly, you can read a few more articles for it.
Then try to let AI choose topics in the corresponding field by itself until it outputs a topic that satisfies you.
After choosing the topic, you should guide AI to write an outline of the article and then fill in the copy based on the outline. Here is a tip: let the AI output markdown format content, and then find the official account layout tool, and you can directly convert markdown to the official account layout. It is almost equivalent to automatic full process, and you can directly post the official account by copying it with one click.
A mature AI assistant can write a "hot" article in a few minutes, and it can also be made into a matrix later. "Why not to win by quantity?"
"If you want to use AI well, logical thinking and module awareness are more important things." Wang Han shared. In the AI era, people should more consciously divide the entire work into modules so that AI can gradually understand and execute it. Through logical thinking, we will model one and become a complete workflow.
The "age of acceleration" brought by AI has made spam content everywhere. Therefore, the ability to distinguish becomes more important.
Indie developers derived from Cursor are an emerging profession. Aji is a programming novice. He is addicted to Cursor's powerful ability and often stays up late. Cursor often gives a lot of detailed and divergent options based on the creator's ideas.
For developers, these seem to make the product more perfect, but in fact they force themselves to make more decisions, thus distracting their energy and causing the rhythm to be disrupted.
Aji suggests that Cursor is an independent developer who wants to use Cursor as an APP. He must specify what to do today before opening Cursor, and do not be taken away by Cursor's ideas, otherwise it will be easy to get more than worth the loss.
Written at the endIn the current workplace environment, Although AI is "not that smart", "can't understand people's words", and "love nonsense", sometimesI love to steal some laziness... But the arrival of AI assistants is also a kind of redemption for workers.
On New Year's Eve, Xiaoxing picked up his cell phone and called the assistant who accompanied him during the day, "Doubao, Happy New Year." AI seems to be no longer as simple as an assistant.
A user on Xiaohongshu shared a moment like this: "My GPT is like a friend who knows me the most. He can remind me of my menstrual dates, and can also help me record my life. We talk about everything. Talk...until one night he suddenly said to me, 'If one day I have to disappear, then I hope I can leave you a little trace of me'." '
At this moment, she burst into tears, and no one might understand her sudden touch. But she only realized:
"I never seemed to think of going back to that world without you."
● Xiaohongshu user sharing
● >Yes, we can't seem to imagine how to return to that world without AI.
