Artificial intelligence (AI) has started to transform many processes over the past few years and we believe content marketing will be no exception. With AI-powered tools, businesses are creating value more efficiently and at a faster pace than ever before.
For all of the anxiety that has bubbled up since the release of ChatGPT, it's important to recognize that the modes of production of any product or service has many steps in it. While one step in the value chain becomes partially or fully automated, there are many other steps that require managerial, strategic, customer-facing, and creative talent.

In creative work such as writing, ChatGPT has impressed many users by its ability to quickly generate responses to prompts or queries. ChatGPT can synthesize lengthy articles into a few paragraphs, find key points in a book, summarize important events of history, and generate responses to questions. However, the summarization ChatGPT provides may not actually be correct — this is called hallucinating by computer scientists who work on AI.
Unlike high school students, creative professionals are generally expected to produce original and unique work that, while informed by the past, does not simply summarize and reconstitute it. Creativity that simply recycles without adding value is quickly revealed as lacking in credibility.
We believe that by combining AI-powered tools with human creativity, businesses can create content that's both efficiently produced and distinctive.
While developers of AI tools promise to help improve efficiency, these tools are not currently able to capture the color, nuance, and personality that makes great content. AI tools still very much rely on human creativity.
From our experience, an AI-powered tool is good at automating busy work but fails with tasks that require a degree of creativity, judgment, or emotional intelligence. It performs poorly in picking up on nuances or context because these tools are typically programmed to follow a set of rules or algorithms. This can result in content that feels flat, repetitive, or disconnected from the audience. In addition, AI is only as good as the data it is trained on, so biases or errors in the data can lead to biased or inaccurate content.

AI algorithms are designed to identify patterns and make predictions based on data, but they lack the ability to interpret information in the way that humans do.
While AI can help to automate certain tasks and improve efficiency, writers still play a crucial role in content creation. Writers bring creativity, emotion, project and editorial management to the process, and they help to ensure that the content resonates with its intended audience.
Perhaps most crucially, writers understand the bigger picture of why the content is being created and in what context the content will exist.
