Using AI tools that write content from scratch like AI Writer to churn out content without any unique stories or personal opinion or provided source content is just not the future. Let me show you why.

First of, let’s discuss what is the future of content. If your company wants to stand out through content, your articles must be:

And AI writing tools that basically remix content that is already readily available on the internet, just doesn’t hit most of those points.

How AI Writer works

Login. Declare a headline – i.e. topic of the article.

Choosing a headline with AI writer
Then pick the keywords you want the article to address.

Choosing keywords within AI writer

It then gives you suggestions for sub sections and you can move them around and say how many words per section you’d like.

From there it creates the article and even cites the sources – take a look at this. Every paragraph basically is based on content from other existing articles.

AI Writer cites sources - which is basically all the content

AI Writer citations
It’s great to see where content comes from, but that certainly doesn’t make this article unique. From an SEO perspective, linking to that many sources also doesn’t make sense.
