πŸš€ Best AI Tools in 2025 (With Example Prompts)

Artificial Intelligence is no longer just hype—it’s now part of everyday work for developers, creators, and businesses. From writing code to creating art to researching faster, the right AI tool can save hours and boost productivity.

But with so many AI platforms out there, which ones should you actually use?
Here’s a my hand-picked list of the best AI tools in 2025—along with their specific use cases and a sample prompt for each.


🧠 1. ChatGPT 5 – The All-Rounder

Best For: Writing, coding, brainstorming, learning new concepts.
ChatGPT 5 is the most advanced version of OpenAI’s chatbot, known for its human-like conversation, coding help, and deep reasoning.

πŸ’‘ Example Prompt:

“Explain the difference between Kafka and RabbitMQ in simple terms, and give me a real-world example of when to use each.”


✍️ 2. Claude Sonnet 4 – Real-Time Coding in IntelliJ

Best For:

  • Writing boilerplate code

  • Autocompleting methods

  • Generating test cases directly in the IDE

Once you have a plan (thanks to Claude), you can switch to IntelliJ IDEA where GitHub Copilot works as your AI pair programmer.

πŸ’‘ Example in IntelliJ:

// Write a Spring Boot REST endpoint for user login

πŸ‘‰ Copilot will instantly suggest the full controller method with annotations like @PostMapping, request body mapping, and a response object.


πŸ’» 3. Replit – AI for Coding & Deployment

Best For: Developers who want to code, test, and deploy apps in one place.
Replit’s Ghostwriter AI suggests, autocompletes, and explains code while you build.

πŸ’‘ Example Prompt:

“Generate a simple Python Flask app that has a single endpoint /hello returning JSON: {message: 'Hello AI World'}.”


πŸ”¬ 4. Google AI Studio – Model Customization

Best For: Fine-tuning and deploying custom AI models.
Google AI Studio allows developers to experiment with Gemini models and tailor them for business use.

πŸ’‘ Example Prompt:

“Train a custom model that classifies customer support tickets into categories: Billing, Technical Issue, Account Setup.”


🌐 5. Gemini (Veo & Nano Banana) – Multimodal Creativity

Best For: Video, images, and multimodal tasks.
Gemini’s sub-models (like Veo for video and Nano Banana for Images edits) unlock creative and real-time applications.

πŸ’‘ Example Prompt:

“Create a 15-second video showing a futuristic city at night with neon lights and flying cars.” 


πŸ‘¨‍πŸ’» 6. GitHub Copilot – AI Pair Programmer

Best For: Coding with real-time AI suggestions.
Powered by OpenAI Codex, GitHub Copilot sits inside your IDE and writes boilerplate code, suggests fixes, and speeds up development.

πŸ’‘ Example Prompt: (in VS Code)

Comment in code: // Write a function that validates an email address in Java


πŸ”Ž 7. Perplexity – AI Search Engine

Best For: Research and fact-checking.
Unlike ChatGPT, Perplexity connects to the web and provides real-time, cited answers, making it great for market research, trends, and news.

πŸ’‘ Example Prompt:

“What are the latest salary trends for software engineers in India (2025) with sources?”


🎨 8. MidJourney – AI Image Generation

Best For: Art, graphics, and design inspiration.
MidJourney specializes in high-quality AI art—from realistic photography to digital painting styles.

πŸ’‘ Example Prompt:

“Generate a fantasy landscape of a floating island with waterfalls, glowing trees, and a sunset sky.”


✨ Final Thoughts

Each of these tools shines in a specific domain:

  • ChatGPT 5 & Claude Sonnet 4 → Text, research, analysis

  • Replit & GitHub Copilot → Coding & development

  • Google AI Studio & Gemini → Model building & creative generation

  • Perplexity → Search & research

  • MidJourney → Visual creativity

πŸ‘‰ The real power comes when you combine them. For example, you could research with Perplexity, draft with ChatGPT, code with Copilot, and visualize with MidJourney—a complete AI-powered workflow.

πŸš€ The future of work is AI + Human collaboration. Start experimenting today, and find the mix that works best for your goals!

Test-Driven Development (TDD): A Guide for Developers

  Test-Driven Development (TDD): A Guide for Developers In modern software engineering, Test-Driven Development (TDD) has emerged as a powerful methodology to build reliable and maintainable software. It flips the traditional approach to coding by requiring developers to write tests before the actual implementation. Let’s dive into what TDD is, why it matters, and how you can implement it in your projects. What is TDD? Test-Driven Development is a software development methodology where you: Write a test for the functionality you’re about to implement. Run the test and ensure it fails (since no code exists yet). Write the simplest code possible to make the test pass. Refactor the code while keeping the test green. This approach ensures that your code is always covered by tests and behaves as expected from the start. The TDD Process The TDD cycle is often referred to as Red-Green-Refactor : Red : Write a failing test. Start by writing a test case that defines what yo...

Understanding Quorum in Distributed Systems

  Understanding Quorum in Distributed Systems In distributed systems, quorum is a mechanism used to ensure consistency and reliability when multiple nodes must agree on decisions or maintain synchronized data. Quorum is especially important in systems where multiple copies of data exist, such as in distributed databases or replicated services . Let’s break it down in simple terms: What is Quorum? In a distributed setup, quorum is the minimum number of nodes that must agree for an operation (like a read or write) to be considered successful. It is crucial for systems where nodes may fail or be temporarily unavailable due to network partitions. How Quorum Works Suppose you have a distributed system with N nodes . To handle reads and writes, quorum requires: Write Quorum (W) : Minimum nodes that must acknowledge a write for it to be considered successful. Read Quorum (R) : Minimum nodes that must be queried to return a value for a read operation. The key rule for quoru...

Cache Me If You Can: Boosting Speed Simplified

What is Cache? A Beginner's Guide Have you ever wondered how your favorite apps or websites load so quickly? A big part of the magic comes from something called a cache ! Let’s break it down in simple terms.                                           What is Cache? A cache (pronounced "cash") is a storage space where frequently used data is kept for quick access. Instead of going through the full process of fetching information every time, your device or a server uses the cache to get what it needs instantly. Think of it like a bookmark in a book: instead of flipping through all the pages to find where you left off, you go straight to the bookmarked spot. Why is Cache Important? Speed : Cache helps apps, websites, and devices work faster by storing data that’s used often. Efficiency : It reduces the need to fetch data repeatedly from its original source, saving time and resour...
