Artificial Intelligence is a teacher's best friend -- we must learn to get the best out of all the available tools, platforms and apps out there to simplify our work. Here are some amazing AIs to keep in mind, including some examples. 

1. ChatGPT. It can be used to check paragraphs and essays written by our students. It will correct all  mistakes, such as grammar mistakes. We must be very specific and ask the AI according to the topic we are teaching ATM, so it will work based on our special needs.

2. Copilot. This AI provided by Microsoft can be a great ally when looking for articles online, as well as scanning PDFs and creating questions based on the text. 

3. BING image creator. When creating tests or when you're in need of visual support, this is the best option. You can create customized images based on a prompt you can write yourself. 

4. Educaplay. This platform can create fun games instantly given your instructions, also using AI. Great for warmups or end-of-class activities -- and you can share with your class very easily.

5. Voicemaker: An AI that converts text into audio. You can use this for listening tests, and you won't have to look for them anywhere, you can just create your own.

Here's an additional tool you can use that is very handy: taking screenshots. The first way is through the following command: the Impr Pant key in the right upper corner of your keyboard. Or using the Snipping Tool on windows. Here's a screenshot:
