I am currently trying to dust off my French skills, and one of the things I find exceedingly difficult is remembering the — to me, not being a native French speaker — seemingly arbitrary grammatical genders of nouns (I know the same is true for Danish, which I speak fluently, but with neuter gender and common gender instead of male and female gender). And since so much grammar depends on the gender of nouns (not just "le" and "la" and "un" and "une", but also writing "du" instead of "de la"; "au" instead of "à la", etc.). I had originally thought of making this manually, with hand drawn sketches, but realized it would be way too time consuming to generate sufficiently different and memorable images for many words. As AI generators for images, writing and voice narration have been becoming better recently, they have opened up an opportunity that in the past simply would not be possible due to amount of work (photoshoots, 3D special effects, illustration, copy writing, narration, editing) needed to cover a single noun. So I think this kind of use case is very meaningful for AI content. I find these materials helpful in remembering the genders, and I hope others might find it useful, too. Have a look if you want, and feel free to let me know if you have any advice or ideas for new words or features. I am planning to add one new word+image+story every day, so feel free to come back and check in if you, like me, find it difficult to remember the genders of French nouns.
