There’s a good chance AI is already integrated into your life to make tasks easier without you even knowing it. From Google Maps’ traffic features to Amazon’s Alexa, AI is now as much a part of our lives as smartphones and cars.
But it’s not just the Big Tech players that design AI programs to impact our lives. Indie developers have jumped on the AI train to make AI apps of their own.
Here are several AI apps that will simplify your day-to-day tasks and improve your quality of life.
1. Diet Camera AI
window[‘gallery_1’] = new Swiper(‘#swipper-1’, {
direction: ‘horizontal’,
spaceBetween: 20,
slidesPerView: 1,
centeredSlides: true,
preventClicks: false,
observer: true,
observeParents: true,
loop: false,
keyboard: {
enabled: true
},
// If we need pagination
pagination: {
el: ‘.swiper-pagination’,
},
navigation: {
nextEl: ‘.swiper-button-next’,
prevEl: ‘.swiper-button-prev’,
},
});
var images = document.getElementsByClassName(“gallery-1-images”);
for (var i = 0; i The traditional method of calorie counting involves the tedious task of keeping record of every item you put in your mouth. Diet Camera AI takes the hard work out of record-keeping and calculates the calories on your plate with a single photo.
The app uses a food-recognition AI camera to see what is on your plate and count the number of calories in your meal. If it does not recognize an item, there is a manual search feature. The daily meal diary calculates your calories for the entire day with special insights into how much fat, protein, and carbs you ate.
If you have a goal weight in mind, Diet Camera AI will chart your daily progress with a nutrition report that tracks your calorie intake trend in conjunction with your weight.

The Person feature will tell you how many people are in your surroundings, their facial expressions, and how close they are to you. You can also teach Seeing AI to recognize particular people by taking three photos of them.
Finally, Scene Preview is an experimental feature that audibly describes the scene surrounding you.
