✨ BIG NEWS! MIT APP INVENTOR NOW ALLOWS YOU TO ADD AI CHAT AND IMAGE CAPABILITIES TO YOUR APPS
You should know something really fascinating if you like building apps with MIT App Inventor. They recently added brand new features that allow you to use artificial intelligence in your apps — and not just any type but also one that can talk and generate images!
π¨️ SAY HELLO TO THE NEW "CHATBOT" FEATURE
You can now build applications that respond to users! Similar to talking with ChatGPT, the new ChatBot feature allows you to build apps that can have real conversations.
Suppose you're building:
• A homework companion that helps with questions
• An electronic buddy for a game of telling stories
• A bot for customer support in a small business app
ChatBot lets you add these smart conversations quickly without needing to write lengthy code. Pretty great, huh?
πΌ️ INTRODUCING THE NEW "IMAGEBOT" FEATURE
And it gets even better.
There's also a new ImageBot feature that can generate images based on what you describe!
For instance, you can command:
Draw a cat on a skateboard π±πΉ
And ImageBot will indeed create an image for you!
This is ideal if you're developing:
• A game where the characters transform based on what the players say
• A personalized greeting card app
• An art app where users can create their own custom images
You don’t need to be an artist or a graphic designer — the AI handles it.
⚙️ HOW TO START USING THESE NEW AI FEATURES
It’s super easy:
• Update your MIT App Inventor Companion app to the latest version (important!)
• Open App Inventor and you’ll find the new ChatBot and ImageBot components in the toolbox
• Drag and drop them into your app like any other component
• Install a couple of settings (such as API keys where necessary), and you're good to go
That’s it! You can now create smarter, cooler apps than ever before.
π WHY THIS IS A BIG DEAL
Prior to this, adding AI to your apps was incredibly complicated and required a whole lot of coding expertise.
However, owing to these fresh updates, anyone — yes, even beginners — can now develop apps with AI magic pre-installed.
This transformation is fantastic for:
• Students who wish to study AI
• Teachers who wish to develop enjoyable learning solutions
• Developers who wish to develop next-generation projects without redoing everything from the ground up
MIT App Inventor just made app development 10x more thrilling!
