Today’s topic is not one of the usual things I cover. It’s quite controversial and we cover two big topics that are seemingly not connected at all, but I just wanted to make a connection between them. That’s artificial intelligence and spirituality. This discussion was inspired by one member of Blogger Playground, our membership for bloggers, who didn’t trust AI and didn’t use it for content creation yet, but heard my perspective and is considering it. She also saw my results and is more optimistic about it now. Also, it’s inspired by emails I exchanged with another member who is into spirituality, like me, and it’s interesting how the conversation goes when these two big topics are combined: spirituality and AI-generated content. There are many different opinions, there’s probably no right or wrong here, so I invite you to keep an open mind when you hear what I have to say. If that’s not your cup of tea, feel free to skip this post, of course. First, I want to share the more logical and strategic part of what I have to say. In the second part, I’ll dive into the energetics and spirituality and the role AI plays and might play in it in the future. Then, I’m going to end the post with what one of the biggest experts in the digital marketing industry is saying about AI-generated content, and how he is using AI to run one of the best marketing agencies out there. Let’s begin. How I went from avoiding AI to using it First, if you haven’t heard already, I do create AI content for my blogs and I do get results from it. Here I share how I ranked an AI written article on the first page of Google in around four days. In this post, I actually talk about two pieces of content that ranked pretty quickly and were maybe not number one in the search results yet, but they were on the first page. I also got many visitors to the site solely thanks to that, which shows that search engines actually rank them. So if you haven’t given tools like ChatGPT a chance when it comes to creating new content, but are willing to consider that, this post is for you. I was also against it and I only started using it last year. I’m not tech savvy. I usually avoid any new tools that I don’t need in my business and I try to stay away from trends. And that definitely looked like one. Everyone was using it for all kinds of stuff and it just seemed too good to be true. It seemed too easy and it could give way too big results with too little effort. It just didn’t make sense. It was unfamiliar to me, so I decided to stay away from it. But then I heard many other expert bloggers talk about it. They tried it and they saw success with it. I took trainings, I learned more about it and I played with ChatGPT a bit to understand how it works. It turned out to be simpler than I could have imagined. What I Do with ChatGPT I just give prompts to the tool, which is just the instructions in the form of text. It could be one or a few sentences. I can tell it to create a draft for an article or suggest title ideas or add an introduction or conclusion to a specific article.
