What is Why Try AI?
Why Try AI is a Substack newsletter curated by Daniel Nest that aggregates and evaluates free AI tools for image‑to‑video, voice cloning, and prompt generation. It offers step‑by‑step guides and code snippets for tools such as Claude, Gemini, and Midjourney, helping non‑tech users integrate AI into workflows.
The publication includes weekly round‑ups of new features, interactive visual explanations, and skill tutorials that upgrade existing AI setups. Readers can access a searchable directory of 1,800+ AI tools and a library of more than 35 practical tips.
The community section hosts discussions, bonus skill videos, and links to external resources. The content is updated daily and focuses on hands‑on, practical use cases rather than theoretical explanations. Subscribers can experiment with AI applications without needing advanced programming knowledge.
