Yes, it's interesting to see what the software can do, but there's something you really need to be careful with.
I tried a couple of the programs for fun to see what they could do. And I discovered that you'd better do careful fact-checking with what they produce.
It appeared to me that the software just grabs info from around the web and tries to link it together in a coherent way.
I did some research and checked a few of the "facts" it spit out, and some were way off. Just random pieces of info linked together by the algorithm.
I understand why Google frowns on it. It has the potential to create a lot of "fake news."
Right now, to me, AI is just another example of technology getting ahead of common sense and humanity's ability to discern what's reasonable.
i think i saw one your and that was in the last paragraph...so for me very impersonal..not talking to me ...
it could be rewritten very quickly to be talking to your reader rather than a more corporate flyer....
it does tend to repeat things paragraph after paragraph....
i think i was in snooze mode during the first paragraph...
it does tend to repeat things paragraph after paragraph....
and too many wealthy affiliates - it could have said 'the paltform' or 'the program' or 'the system'....
but ai is getting there...
google now has an ai detector that knows the signature of ai written text and decides whether it is worth indexing....
This is full of features and not benefits, its benefits that create behavioural momentum not features
We do not buy products we buy the transformation that the product brings and this article does not mention this
Its robotic and lacks human emotion
The best way to test this article is to sand real traffic to it and see what results you get

If you can take anything from this Barry, the AI knows how to spell and when to use full stops.
I concur with you on the writing, it lacks, I don't know how to say it so I will say the writing lacks humanity.

Hey Leon,
Obviously AI writers can be used to create GREAT content, unfortunately THIS IS NOT IT.
Sorry!
Google has been trying to stamp out AI content, which is clearly evidenced by indexing issues for over two years (Google have literally been like, "Should I index this, should I not, is this AI content, I'm confused?), the number of "Helpful Content" and "Spam" updates.
Remember, there are people out there "writing" and publishing 10, 20, 50, 100 articles a day through using AI software.
They initial rank, get traffic, simply due to overall volume of content that is being produced.
I even know of many people who are using this methodology to earn a few thousand $$$ before Google "catches up" with them, and places a manual penalty of their site.
They go off and then do the same thing again, over-and-over.
Yes, they are earning money by doing this, but it's not a sustainable business model.
Google's aim is to provide helpful content to readers from people with real experience.
I do believe that AI software can be used to provide and OUTLINE of an article, as well as giving the author a few tips on content.
However, the main research and writing should always be done by the author.
That said, just reading the above, Google would immediately spot that this was AI content, therefore it's unlikely to get indexed, and will never rank.
Why do I say this?
There's no actual "real content" within this.
The reader is not actually "getting anything" out of this.
Each paragraph is repetitive, but changes the wording slightly.
Personally, I feel there's a lot of "fluff" and no real value in this piece.
Sorry again Leon, just my opinion.
You can actually see this in the constant repetition of:
"website building tools"
"hosting"
"training materials"
"training webinars"
"community"
Note, that these phrases (or variations) are used in every paragraph.
A GREAT article would never just list FEATURES, it would need to give the reader the BENEFITS of those features.
That is what makes an article great.
Can you see how this is not actually giving the reader any value?
Will AI writers be able to eventually do this?
Sure, of course they will, I mean you wouldn't have believed that your phone could be a mini-computer 20 years ago, so the evolution of AI content can definitely go in the same direction.
For now, and for me, it is obvious that this is AI content, simply due to the lack of anything "real".
If it's obvious to me, it will be obvious to Google.

I've looked into the AI writers and even bought a lifetime membership to one around the same time I paid for the Premium Plus.
I've read not only what you are saying here, but that they are prone to giving wrong information as well. The time sink alone just verifying could be used to just write the article.
I got my membership so when I'm finally ready to start a second one I can use it to help me map out outlines as you mentioned. On that it can save one some time.
Out of curiosity, do you know of any great tutorials for using one to create outlines? I bought it before I read any of your posts on keyword research and I'm trying to picture how the general outline isn't shaped by the keyword research and not the AI.
Appreciate any insight you may have on this.

Jason
Hi Partha
Thank you I appreciate what you have said here.
I'm new to this A.I thing. It appears that openai/chatGPT went viral and I picked up on it.
I was mind blown that this can be done, not on the quality of the writing, which I concur with you is not great at all. There is not much value in it. I imagine it just scrapes the internet like a bot.
I should have said in the post what I asked the AI to write, but here is what I asked it: "write a 2000-word review blog about the wealthy affiliate website".

Hey Jason,
I believe most premium AI tools have an "outline feature", so you can input a subject and then let the software do it's thing.
This then provides you with things like headlines, subheadings, and obviously content.
However, it's the headlines and subheadings that are most useful in terms of producing a great article.
Essentially, this now gives you tipics of conversation to brainstorm.
The AI software has now given this to you, so you now have the opportunity to RESEARCH these subheadings YOURSELF.
Let's take Leon's example above, the tool has mentioned Wealthy Affiliate's hosting, training materials, webinars, and the community.
Perfect!! You now have 4 specific subheadings to use in your article.
You can now "humanize" this by talking about WHAT YOU KNOW about the hosting, training materials, webinars, and the WA community.
Basically, let the AI software do all the work.
Pick out certain features it has included in the article, then HUMANIZE this with your own words, and turn those features into benefits.
So, in effect, you can an AI tool write an article, you then pick and choose what you feel are the most important bits, then go off and research these yourself, and then write the article.
Two sites to check out would be
Hubspot - "How to Make the Best Out of AI Tools"
AND
Adam Enfroy - "How to Use AI to Write Articles That Rank"
Partha
Aha!! That is impressive then, agreed, LOL!!
I'm glad you realise the content doesn't provide much value, but yes, now I get you!!! Hahahahaha!!
To type JUST ONE SENTENCE in and then receive this, well it just goes to show how far technology has come.
As I've mentioned to Jason, even from the article produced here you have enough information on what you need to focus on to write a great article.
For me, that's what I would use AI for, brainstorming and ideas, but often that's the part where a lot of people initially struggle, e.g. "I don't know what to say, I don't know what to write about, etc."
So, I can certainly see how this can get those creatives juices running!
I might actually give you a subject, you send me the article, I will then create a blog post to show how I used the content you've sent me to create a FANTASTIC article.
Partha
I used the AI after the above to write a short form Facebook post adding my WA affiliate link.
I will certainly be using this to get ideas.
Today I also asked the AI to create a 5 point outline of the WA website, it gave me those 5 points. I then asked it to create a paragraph on point 1, point 2 etc and it created paragraphs for each point.
But it wasn't that great at that and ended up repeating things and sounding monotonous.
But those initial 5 points I could of then gone off and created MY content on those like you said above.
: Leon.
GOATfully great insights.
Thank you.
I'll see if I can integrate it into using your method once I'm done building my page silos and start the actual blogging for easy to rank keywords.
One last question if you don't mind. I asked this as a question but many of the answers were either not definitive or was a stick to the training one can go back and edit later.
It occurred to me when I was doing training on using Jaaxy that many hard to rank for keywords would also be offered as choices. From this coupled with knowing somehow over time dozens or hundreds of of keywords will be assigned by Google that were not the original intent keywords, my questions was this.
Would it be smart (if it fits naturally of course) to place harder to compete keywords within the post itself so as my site gains authority with Google I can rank for those harder ones that weren't the original keywords I use to rank?
Appreciate any insight you have on this.
Regards,
Jason
