[00:01] How are you doing?  I hope you're all doing well. Without a professional thumbnail that grabs attention and piques viewers' curiosity, people will never click on your video. The thumbnail is the first thing viewers
[00:13] see, and they're faced with hundreds of thumbnails for hundreds of other videos. So why choose your video? Because the thumbnail effectively conveys the video's content and contains
[00:26] effectively conveys the video's content and contains elements that pique curiosity and attract attention. In this video, we'll learn how to create a professional thumbnail for free using artificial intelligence. You'll only need to type a couple of words, and the thumbnail will appear in a very professional way. I'll also explain at the
[00:43] end of the video whether YouTube allows the use of AI-powered thumbnails and what tricks you need to use.
[01:05] you can download via Google Chrome. I'll leave the link in the description. Open GBT Chat (this is the free version). The first thing you'll do is select "Create Image" or "Create Image," and then...
[01:17] You start writing your promo. What should I write? I'll write whatever's on my mind. For example, I'll use my picture. If you want to use a picture, you have one—your personal photo, a picture of a dish (
[01:31] if it's a cooking channel), a picture of the game, a picture of the thing you'll be talking about in the video. So, I put my pictures in the thumbnails. I'll start by clicking on the plus sign and selecting "Pictures." Of course,
[01:44] this step is optional. I'll choose, for example, this picture. Okay, and I'll click "Done." So, I've chosen my picture. After that, I'll start writing the promo request. I don't want you to write a professional promo; just
[01:56] write whatever's on your mind, but in the way I'm going to tell you. We'll start putting the promo I'm going to tell you. We'll start putting the promo here. What did I write? "Design a professional thumbnail." You have to start with the phrase "Design a professional thumbnail" so that it knows the dimensions of the
[02:12] image for YouTube. And write that the YouTube channel should include the person in the reference image. That's what it's called.  The reference image is for when you want to add more pictures. You can add one, two, more pictures. You can add one, two, or three. This person is wearing a black t-shirt and a
[02:26] black cap. I'll also change the color of the t-shirt; I'll wear a red one and make it black because I like red one and make it black because I like black. It will be on the left side of the image, and they'll be pointing to the other side. On the right, it says " Best Editing Apps" in Arabic. Next to the text, there's a
[02:41] downward-pointing arrow pointing to three phones. On their screens, one phone shows the CapCat app interface with the logo, another shows the VN app, and the third shows the InShot app. The background of the image
[02:55] will be dark red, gradually fading to black, with visual effects suitable for the image's theme. I wrote this myself; I didn't use artificial intelligence. You write a description of
[03:07] artificial intelligence. You write a description of your image, and then I'll start. Click your image, and then I'll start. Click here on this arrow, and I'll begin. Now wait two or three minutes. Chat GBT might be slow for a while if you're using the free version.
[03:21] while if you're using the free version. You can create three or four images per day. If you have another account, you can also create three or four images on that one. I don't know about...  Today, or rather within the last 12 hours, but I didn't get stuck with it. It didn't come to me once and say, "You've reached your limit,
[03:36] okay?" But it has a limited number of attempts until it creates the image. I'll go to the second method, which is the image. I'll go to the second method, which is through Gemini, and then I'll come back to it again. I'll go to Gemini. Of course, some people call it Gemini or Gemini, call it whatever you want. Here's the
[03:51] Gemini application. Of course, you can also download it from Google Chrome. I'll start by typing the same request so we can begin comparing. I'll click on this plus sign and choose "Create images." I'll click on the
[04:03] plus sign and choose "Images." Of course, you can open the camera and take a picture directly. Then, go up to this arrow and choose the thinking level. Here, choose "Expanded," not "
[04:16] Normal." Then, we'll click on the arrow. Gemini is very fast, faster than GBT Chat. So, Gemini is working now. Let's go to GBT Chat. It's not finished yet. No, it's finished.
[04:29] go to GBT Chat. It's not finished yet. No, it's finished. Here's the GBT chat, it's finished. See the same description Here's the GBT chat, it's finished. See the same description I wrote for it? I want this person pointing to the other side, and I want him on the left side. It says " Best video editing apps in
[04:42] Arabic" above, and here are three phones, an arrow, and a dark red background that fades to black. So it gave me the description I wanted. And by the way, many content creators now
[04:55] rely on artificial intelligence to create images. To make an image like this, it used to take me an hour, but now in just a few seconds I can create the image by clicking here on this download icon, and the image starts downloading to my gallery. Let's go see
[05:12] to my gallery. Let's go see Gemini, it's finished too. Here's the image. Gemini is one of the best video editing apps, and the result is nice too, but there's a watermark. This watermark is the only thing that bothers me a bit. You can put
[05:27] your image on Canvas, for example, and hide the watermark. Bye.  It's all good, but I see it keeps the facial features, writes in Arabic, adds arrows, and puts logos on all three phones.
[05:40] arrows, and puts logos on all three phones. The result is excellent. I'll start by saving the image. I'll press save, and then both images will be downloaded to my phone's gallery. Here's will be downloaded to my phone's gallery. Here's the image of Gemini, and here's
[05:55] the image of Chat GBT. Both are good, honestly. I want you to tell me in the comments which image you think is the best. By the way, the quality is amazing. I think the quality is excellent, and
[06:07] quality is amazing. I think the quality is excellent, and it keeps the facial features and everything. It's excellent, guys. You can now make any image, any thumbnail you can think of. Also,
[06:19] thumbnail you can think of. Also, if you want to use any image from YouTube or another content creator, you can take a screenshot of the image and then take that image and go to Gemini. You can tell him to replace this person with this one. All of this is available
[06:35] this person with this one. All of this is available to you. Does YouTube prohibit the use of artificial intelligence in  Creating images is perfectly acceptable. YouTube doesn't prohibit the use of artificial intelligence in image creation, and you're not required to disclose that you're using AI. It's perfectly
[06:51] disclose that you're using AI. It's perfectly normal. For almost a year now, all my images have been created with AI, and there's no problem with that. However, the tricks you need to keep are to make your image creative. Write the description you want, and include
[07:06] some real-world elements. For example, you could photograph the thing you're talking about and integrate it with the thumbnail. Try not to make the entire image an AI thumbnail. In the end, I hope you found the video helpful. If you liked it, let me know in the
[07:22] comments. If you have any questions, write them in the comments too. And remember, it's not just the thumbnail that will attract viewers; the title also plays a big role. To title also plays a big role. To
[07:38] video that will appear on the end screen. If you're still with me, please give this a like!  For the video, and if you have any questions, write them in the comments.  peace
