Irina_Tech_Tips Newsletter #2 (2023)
Hello, my dear readers!
Thank you so much for staying with me!
Three weeks ago, at the time of the last issue of the newsletter, I thought I would stop updating all Cyber Detective social media accounts and only occasionally make posts about #osint in my new Twitter account Irina Daily Tech Tips.
My goal was to save myself the trouble that the Cyber Detective project was causing me and make posts on a wider variety of IT-related topics (the account irina_tech_tips was created for this purpose.).
But in the end, I decided to STOP updating only Cyber Detective Github, Mastodon, Medium, Discord, Substack (it already significantly reduces the feedback flow) decided to keep Cyber Detective's Twitter active and continue to post anything related to #osint, cybersecurity, and anything else that seems interesting to me.
In this newsletter, I will be collecting weekly posts from two Twitter accounts - https://twitter.com/cyb_detective and https://twitter.com/irina_tech_tips.
In this issue:
AI Image generation and editing

AI image generation and editing

LEDITS
One of the easiest tools for #AI picture editing. No selection of areas or other unnecessary movements are required. Simply name the object in the picture and click Add or Remove.

Uncrop
If you need an image of a certain width or height, and the original image doesn't fit in any way, you can use this #AI tool to draw the edges on it. The result is very realistic.
