The Champ’s Corner – Interview with the Champ – Muhammad Ali

This podcast project combines my creativity with creative AI tools, including language models, video editing, and AI-generated images. Together, we brought a dialogue between Muhammad Ali and myself to life. The podcast explores popular themes such as motivation and comedy.
  1. Research and Script Creation: I used the large language model (LLM) ChatGPT during the research phase. Together, we crafted a dialogue that would somewhat authentically reflect the perspective of Muhammad Ali. I made sure to add my creative touch to the prompt as well. ChatGPT produced dialogue that accurately displayed what I was looking for in this podcast.
  2. Image and Voice Generation: For visuals, I once again used the large language model ChatGPT to produce cartoon-style images of me and Ali conversing. Using ElevenLabs, I created lifelike text-to-speech voices for Muhammad Ali and myself, adding depth to our conversation.
  3. Music and Audio Composition: For the music, I just used the non-copyright default music provided by CapCut. I used the music for the graphics shown in between segments.
  4. Editing and Assembly: I used CapCut to bring together all elements—scripted dialogue, visuals, voices, and music—into a seamless final product. Though it was very tedious to download images and audio files,  I am proud of how the final product turned out.
By combining these AI tools, ChatGPT and ElevenLabs, while also using CapCut to put it all together, I was able to produce a video podcast that vividly conveys the joy I had creating this podcast and the great advice Muhammad Ali has for us.
