So I love Canva and I love ChatGPT. I use them all the time
0:06
So when I saw news that Canva was launching a ChatGPT plugin
0:11
it was enough to get me to pay the $20 to subscribe to ChatGPT+
0:17
So I had thought that I could ask a question to ChatGPT
0:22
it would generate the content that I asked for, and then I could use the ChatGPT plugin to automatically create that content that I requested in ChatGPT
0:32
kind of like this. Boy, was I wrong. Let me show you what happens with this useless Canva plugin
0:40
So I do have my five football quotes, and these are great
0:45
So the first part of this went fine. It used the Wikipedia plugin to generate a number of different quotes from famous NFL coaches
0:53
These are great. So now let me use the Canva plugin to generate that thumbnail
0:59
Here's my prompt, generate an interesting thumbnail image for each one of the quotes above using the Canva plugin
1:08
So you can see it's now using that Canva plugin
1:18
And this is all that the plugin did. It lists the quote here, and it gives me a thumbnail template, but it doesn't create this in any way
1:28
So if I go ahead and click the template, it takes me to just a blank template
1:34
None of this is filled in. It's not created. This is how I was hoping that it would work when I initially did this prompt
1:42
Same thing here. Here's the second quote. All they did is just found random templates, and it doesn't necessarily even connect to the quote
1:52
I guess maybe this is pressure. So it found someone who looks like they're under pressure, and this one mentioned setting the goal
1:59
So maybe they thought setting sun. Either way, this is not helpful at all because when I click on that, it just takes me to this template
2:08
I still have to copy and paste all of the content onto this template
2:13
Now, let me ask you, how is the Canva plugin any different than just doing a search for a YouTube thumbnail and having all of these suggestions and then just clicking one of these and copying and pasting the content like I normally would
2:29
I don't think that this Canva plugin really does anything for you
2:33
It's completely useless. You're much better off just generating the quotes in chat GPT, copying the quote, and then going to Canva and picking from one of the many templates that are here as opposed to just the five generic templates that the Canva plugin gives you
2:52
And I've checked all different types of content in Canva. It's going to work the same way
2:58
It won't actually create something for you. Instead, it just gives you a link to a random template to work on
3:05
So if you are hoping to have a functionality inside chat GPT where you think it will automatically create content for you using this Canva plugin, it will not
3:17
The Canva plugin is completely useless using chat GPT. So while there are a lot of nice plugins, while there's a lot of nice benefits to chat GPT+, if that's your reason for upgrading, then you're pretty much wasting $20
3:32
And yes, I know that this is a beta feature, but if you're Canva, what's even the point of releasing this plugin
3:39
To be blunt, I think this Canva plugin is complete trash. Let me know what you think
