What is AI Generated Content

GlossaryArtificial Intelligence

Texts, images, audio, video, code or other materials created in whole or in part using artificial intelligence.

Definition

AI content can be an article draft, illustration, voice, music, banner ad, video, letter, or code snippet. It is important not only that the material is created by the model, but also how it is checked, edited, marked up and used. For businesses, quality, rights, transparency and brand consistency are especially important.

Example

Editors can use AI to create a first draft of a service description, and then the editor checks the facts, style, and benefit to the reader.

Why it matters

The term is important because many directory tools create content, but the quality and risks vary greatly.

How it works

The model generates material based on a request, example, data, or template. A person can refine the result, check the facts, change the style and publish only the finished version.

Where it is used

  • marketing and blog
  • design and illustrations
  • audio, video and code

Limitations

AI content may contain errors, plagiarism, poor style, fictitious facts, or rights issues. Without editorial review, it often looks formulaic.
