Who created charades.net?

Effortlessly.net was created by Richard Ketelsen and is part of an on-going project/experiment that is described on my website Ketelsen.ai is my ongoing experiment in automation and A.I. integration, allowing me to streamline my work and manage multiple websites with minimal time investment. This approach has been years in the making, and I’m eager to see what it can become. Learn More >>

What type of business is this?

Ketelsen.ai isn't a traditional business—it's an experiment in using A.I. automation to create something of value. In many ways, it's more of a hobby than a business. Because of this, there are limitations to what I can offer compared to a standard business. For example, I may not be available for regular communication or support. With only one day a week dedicated to this project and the ongoing need to update the website, I haven't yet automated social media and communications, though it's something I'm actively working on.

What is the connection between Charades.net, Ketelsen.ai and the A.I. Cookbook?

Effortlessly.net and Ketelsen.ai are built and automated using recipes from my website aicookbook.ai. The A.I. Cookbook is more than just a manual; it's a collection of "recipes" carefully crafted to guide you through using advanced AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Midjourney. Each recipe in the cookbook provides step-by-step instructions that simplify the process of integrating AI into your projects. Whether you're looking to enhance a website, streamline content creation, or explore new technological frontiers, the A.I. Cookbook has something to offer.

It can be a bit confusing but here is how I think of the process of building these websites:

• Ketelsen.ai is an experiment to find new and creative ways to use A.I. tools such as ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Midjourney, and more. Basically, I ask A.I. services such as ChatGPT and Google Gemini to create 3 new prompt ideas every day. I keep a list of previous prompts and ask these A.I. tools not to repeat the past prompts. As this experiment continues I believe that A.I. will become more powerful and the on-going list of previous prompts will force these tools to come up with more creative and innovative ideas.

• AICookbook.ai is where the refined prompts are valuable recipes for building better websites, projects, or businesses. I use these recipes to build my own websites and refine them when I find room for improvement.

• Charades.net uses the recipes from the AICookbook.ai website to create helpful blog posts and ideas for Entrepreneurs with a focus on using A.I. to defend against cyber threats.
