Introduction
When it comes to creating content, businesses, and individuals are heavily depending on AI tools these days.
All due to the machine-based intelligence that AI tools use, making them more susceptible to committing mistakes and errors when generating content for their users.

Negative impact of relying on AI content
AI algorithms are trained to mimic existing patterns in a content piece. Hence the AI-generated content turns out to be generic, low quality, and factually correct. This not only will dissatisfy your readers but also upset the Search Engines that prioritize fresh and unique content helpful to their readers. You will lose engagement as well as higher rankings on the Search Engine Results Page.
Warning signs of AI-generated content
AI tools such as Jasper, ChatGPT, Gemini, WordTune, etc. have made content generation much easier and quicker than before.
While many of these tools help produce relevant content, others often bring lousy outputs to the table.
Here are some of the signs that show that the content is AI-generated and not written by a human.
You will see Bold almost everywhere
So, recently you have read an article or blog, where almost all the keywords are seen in bold. Be assured that it has been written by an AI tool as it loves to use the Bold feature frequently.
Repetitive Lingo and Keyword Stuffing
Repetition of the same language and keyword stuffing is a clear indicator that the content is AI-generated all due to the machine-based intelligence that it follows.
Overdramatic
If you notice the use of too many fancy words with an overdramatic tone in the content, be certain that it is AI-generated with a lack of crucial information for the readers.
Lack of Originality and Depth
A lack of depth and originality with too many fancy and flowery words, that's how perfect AI content will look like. And, it's all due to the way AI tools have been trained to create content.
Why AI content is a trap?
Google prioritizes human experience in content because humans engage more with human-like content that showcases unique voices, emotions, and personal touch while interacting with readers.
However AI content lacks emotion, human perspectives, storytelling approach, and uniqueness. This is why readers don't prefer to engage with your content as it doesn't resonate with a human's pain points and feelings. As a result, Google also downranks the content on their search rankings, causing you to lose both conversion and ranking.
4 potential traps to avoid in AI content generation
Too much use of AI tools can pose serious threats to your brand and you as a distinct entity. Below are 4 potential traps to avoid when using AI tools for content creation.
Trap 1
Using AI tools to research, organize, and develop notes for reporting or storytelling is good as they compile data quickly and easily. But, with it comes the risk of missing out on real-time resources. This may affect your write-ups with unwanted plagiarism issues or bugs.
Trap 2
When pasting AI tools as a reference with your content, make your viewers see the difference between the two write-ups. Failing to do so will give them the impression that the entire piece is AI-generated, ultimately harming your brand.
Trap 3
AI-generated content cannot detect the sources of the original writeups, so, consequently, plagiarize them with incorrect information. This negatively impacts your online presence.
Trap 4
AI-generated content is mostly false, incorrect, and unreliable with too many bugs and mistakes in the whole piece. So, think before you invest.
The value of human-written content
Humans can mix their own experiences with emotion to prepare a content piece, that resonates well with readers, not bots.
Human storytelling approaches, along with emotional appeal, connect directly with readers.
Humans write content that seamlessly reflects brand identity and the brand's unique voice.
When readers engage with your content more, Search Engines also boost your search rankings.
When to use AI for content generation?
AI tools like ChatGPT, Jasper, or Gemini can be the most useful when:
You have already earned a brand reputation and tone of voice: Your content must be the reflection of your brand identity with a distinct tone and voice that enables effective storytelling. So, use AI tools to create content only after you have gained a substantial reputation in the market.
You are aware of what to ask: Sometimes, AI tools can give lousy outputs while at other times outstanding results. In short, these tools are very unpredictable. So, use them only when you are certain of what message to be conveyed to your target audience.
You know your niche clearly: When using AI tools to gain knowledge in your relevant sector, be a little careful as they tend to make unwanted mistakes and mostly use outdated resources. So, once you know your niche, you can easily correct these bugs and pitfalls, and post contents that capture your audience’s attention faster than expected.
So, the bottom line is AI tools still have a long way to go when it comes to replacing human writers for effective content creation. If you are reading this blog, probably you are in search of genuine content providers.

3. Does Google hate AI content?

However, Google uses tools that can detect malicious or low-quality outputs automatically, but the good news is it does not purposely avoid all the blogs and articles that are AI-enabled.
Conclusion
Everything comes with its fair share of advantages and disadvantages, so AI-generated content cannot be an exception. Such content is good until you know your niche, can use the tools effectively, and have the ability to fix the necessary bugs and mistakes as and when required.

#263 #VerifyYourSources I like to listen to diverse points of view just to stay informed on what other people think. I'm listening to one such audiobook now. It's interesting (to say the least) that statements are made on the audiobook that at first glance don't seem to stand up to logic and have no source for the information they provide. I know I'm a bit biased since I don't agree with much of what is said in the audiobook. But still. I'm sure I would I able to debunk many of the “facts" presented with a quick search. The problem that I see is that many people may take this material at face value and believe 100% of it. That's my greater concern. So my message to you is: Verify your sources! And that's for both, information that you agree with and disagree with. You may discover that your view is incorrect. Verify your sources! #bepositive #traindaily #eatwell #livewell Pics: #vegan food 20180710
