cssmagic/Awesome-AI

A single-author referral collection (an “Awesome” style list) covering AI large language models, AI-assisted coding, AI art/audio/video creation, and everyday AI tools. It is explicitly designed as a reference to bookmark and revisit, since it is updated continuously.

How it’s organized: four main sections (plus a FAQ that’s listed in the table of contents but not shown in the excerpt):

1. Large Language Models — profiles of major LLMs: OpenAI GPT/ChatGPT, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, DeepSeek, Zhipu GLM/ChatGLM, Moonshot/Kimi, and a “more” section covering Alibaba’s Qwen, Baidu’s Ernie, 01.AI’s Yi, iFlytek Spark, MiniMax, StepFun, MiniCPM-V, plus model-benchmark and tracking sites.
2. AI Programming — GitHub Copilot and Cursor as flagship tools, then a longer list of AI-powered editors, IDE plugins (Windsurf, Cline, Trae, CodeGeeX, Codeium, Tabnine, Amazon CodeWhisperer, etc.), web design generators (Bolt.new, v0.dev), and agent-style coding tools (Devin, Augment Code, open-source debuggers and switchers).
3. AI Painting / Audio-Video Creation — image generators (Midjourney, DALL·E, Stable Diffusion, FLUX.1), video generators (Runway, Pika, Sora, Kling), 3D-model-from-image tools, digital-human and voice-cloning tools (HeyGen, Eleven Labs, ChatTTS, LivePortrait), music creation (Suno), audio/video processing, and misc creative tools.
4. Common AI Websites / Tools — aggregator platforms (POE, FlowGPT, Character.AI, Coze), image-editing and UI-design services, and writing/PPT assistants.

What each entry contains: a one- or two-line description, official website link, API documentation link, the web product’s access URL, and — notably — concrete pricing or free-quota details (e.g., ChatGPT Free vs Plus at $20/month; Copilot’s free tier with 2000 monthly completions). Some entries also link to the author’s own tutorial blog posts or related open-source projects.

Notable traits:

• Very China-aware: alongside OpenAI and Google, it documents domestic Chinese models (DeepSeek, Moonshot Kimi, Zhipu GLM, Alibaba Qwen, Baidu Ernie) with their own API docs and pricing.
• Open-source tools are flagged as such with self-hosting options (e.g., Stable Diffusion, ChatTTS, MiniCPM-V).
• Free-tier availability is highlighted throughout (e.g., “有免费配额” = has free quota, “免费无限量” = free unlimited).
• Includes side tools like model performance ranking sites (Artificial Analysis, InferenceBench) and new-model alerts (ArtificialWatch).

Who it’s for: anyone exploring generative AI — developers wanting coding assistants or LLM APIs, artists and creators looking for image/video/music tools, and general users curious about AI products. The author explicitly frames it as a permanent reference to keep handy.
