How to Use AI to Boost Content Creation
Following the release of ChatGPT, lots of other AI tools have also come to the limelight, some of which are poised to offer more functions than ChatGPT.
The big tech companies are not left out as Microsoft relaunched Bing, its search engine to run on an AI-powered model more powerful than ChatGPT.
Google, on the other hand, released its AI, Bard to update search results and provide more human, simplified answers to topics.
Safe to say, the AI race is on.
And this is good news for creators as it means you can get more work done in less time.
Here’s how you can leverage AI to boost your productivity and do more as a content creator.
1. Research
Research is the backbone of any content you create. For every content you put out, you need to be sure that it’s relevant to your audience and helps them to either solve a problem or feel heard.
You can utilize AI tools to make this process faster and more accurate. Instead of manually researching to find out the best content angle or intro, AI tools can do it for you in a fraction of the time, allowing you to focus on other aspects of your content creation.
AI can also help you gain insights into your target audience. By analyzing data from social media platforms and other online sources, AI algorithms can identify patterns and trends that can help you understand your audience’s interests, preferences, and behaviors.
This information can be used to create content that resonates with the audience, leading to higher engagement and conversions.
Insert a prompt like “What type of content ideas is suitable for (your platform) audience ages (rough age estimate of your audience) to boost engagement.
2. Generate content ideas
Content exhaustion is a thing. There are times on your creator journey when you may lack content ideas for your audience. And it’s normal.
Luckily for you, you can now use AI to generate content ideas whenever you think you’re running. Insert a prompt like, “Create (X number) content ideas for (platform) on (your topic), into ChatGPT or Copymatic, and boom, you have a long list of content ideas to work with.
Also, AI can analyze the behavior of your audience by tracking their online activity. By analyzing this data, AI can identify patterns and trends that can be used to generate content ideas.
For example, if AI identifies that a particular type of content is popular with your audience, you can create more content around that topic.
If you own a blog, you can also use AI tools to generate blog topic ideas to boost your visibility on search engines.
By analyzing the keywords and topics that are popular in your industry, AI can suggest ways to improve your content and make it more search engine friendly. This can help your content reach a wider audience and generate more traffic.
The downside of this is that not all topics generated by AI will be relevant to your audience. That’s why you have other tools such as “Answer the Public” to help you narrow down your search to what your audience is really searching for.
3. Create content
Another thing that makes AI the Beyonce of all Beyonce’s is that it helps you create content for your audience.
AI tools such as ChatGPT can write a research paper. It’s been tested to pass Law and Medical school exams. Such a smart tool!
But more than this, ChatGPT can also write Instagram captions, tweets, long-form blog posts, and even scripts for your videos. It can also write marketing copy and emails to drive conversion.
Insert a prompt like, “Create a(n) (platform) caption about a post on (your post). And immediately you have options to choose from. You can also regenerate each response you get till you find something that suits your brand tone.
Don’t forget! AI is still AI and can not replace human intelligence. Therefore, some responses you’ll get will need to be edited to fit for purpose.
4. Create digital products
We noticed that one of the predominant reasons people shy away from creating digital products is that it takes a long time to create.
You have to get through the days of not knowing how to create an outline, not knowing how to explain your points in the easiest ways, or not writing enough.
We explained an easy-to-use template in the Ultimate Digital Product Manual. You can check it out. And yes, it’s FREE.
AI tools can be used to generate content for digital products such as ebooks, podcasts, and video courses.
For example, when you insert a prompt such as “Create a 30-page ebook on How to Make Money on Selar” into ChatGPT, its natural language generation (NLG) technology can be used to create the written content, while its voice recognition technology can be used to create audio content.
This can help you to create high-quality content more quickly and efficiently.
And if you need to create stunning designs for your product, Canva’s AI tool can be used to generate a design for you in minutes. What a time to be alive!

5. Review content
Reviewing content is an easy way to refine your content to produce the best version of it. AI tools can be used to review content to ensure it aligns with brand tone and style.
Also, if you think there’s a missing piece in your content, AI can help you figure it out. Think of it as an editor with heightened speed and knowledge base.
It can help you to identify areas for improvement and make data-driven decisions that will improve the quality of your content.
AI can also be used to optimize content for search engines. For example, it can analyze keywords and suggest changes to improve search engine rankings. This can help you to increase the visibility of your content and reach a larger audience.
Another thing AI does for you is it helps you repurpose old content into new formats. That is blog posts into scripts for short-form videos, long videos into social media posts, or online course scripts into marketing materials or ebooks.
With this, you can never run out of content for your audience as there’s always more to choose from.
