On the back of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/everything-you-need-to-know-about-chat-gpt-2023-1?r=US&amp;IR=T\">OpenAI\u2019s newest bot release<\/a>, ChatGPT has become something of a celebrity in the marketing world.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a content writing master, ChatGPT has become a go-to tool for content marketers across the globe. Powered by AI, it has become one of the first chatbots to not only gather vast amounts of data but recite fresh content in a meaningful, human tone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Since its release, ChatGPT has been used to aid a number of writing efforts, from emails to essays. Recent <a title=\"https:\/\/howsociable.com\/blog\/chatgpt-statistics\/\" href=\"https:\/\/howsociable.com\/blog\/chatgpt-statistics\/\">ChatGPT statistics<\/a> reveal it supports 55+ languages. The question is, could it write a blog post too?<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are we welcoming a new era of content marketing?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Creating engaging, innovative content can be time-consuming. It takes a great deal of research, a fresh angle and a strong voice to win over an online audience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the competition to boost content SEO rises, it\u2019s no wonder that a number of digital marketers have turned to AI-powered bots like ChatGPT to speed up article production, gather quick insights and plan content formats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the ability to tap into extensive vocabulary and mimic human language, many content writers fear their positions could be in jeopardy. However, Professor of Law at Emory University, Matthew Sag, claims that language models, such as ChatGPT, could never fully replace the \u2018human touch\u2019 but rather aid it instead.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;There&#8217;s a saying that an infinite number of monkeys will eventually give you Shakespeare,&#8221; he claims. &#8220;There&#8217;s a large number of monkeys here, giving you things that are impressive \u2014 but there is intrinsically a difference between the way that humans produce language and the way that large language models do it.&#8221;\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stick with us as we reveal 3 reasons why the \u2018human touch\u2019 is still essential in the land of content production and how you can use ChatGPT to enhance your writing efforts rather than replace them.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Human insight starts new conversations\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While ChatGPT can sift through vast amounts of information at lightning speed, its content-writing process carries one major flaw.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AI-powered content writing may be fresh and free of plagiarism but is only built on the foundation of insights <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.toprankblog.com\/2023\/02\/chatgpt-future-b2b-content-marketing\/#:~:text=AI%20will%20create%20the%20first,all%20to%20make%20it%20more\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">that have already been published<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. While ChatGPT can take an alternative angle on a popular topic, it can not create a new one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is where the human touch remains essential. In order for your copywriting to truly stand out, you need to be constantly producing original content and starting new conversations with your work. A true piece of high-quality content shouldn&#8217;t be able to be found anywhere else on the internet. If you\u2019re engaging in new topical debates, you\u2019re much more likely to become a thought leader within your niche and a blog worth generating traffic for.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Original sources drive valuable content<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ChatGPT is an expert at harvesting data. If you\u2019re looking for a stat to add to an article, an AI-powered content bot is a great research aid. However, while ChatGPT pulls up data related to a subject matter, it doesn\u2019t reference the text or cite its sources.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Therefore, it\u2019s important not to put all your trust in AI when it comes to writing a piece based on hard data or empirical facts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the competition to churn out content heats up, the rise of ChatGPT has made original sources and real data a valuable asset to human content writers. If you can produce your own primary sources in the form of survey results, interviews and studies, you\u2019ll stand out as a fresh source of insights that ChatGPT can\u2019t match.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The importance of targeted content<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The importance of customised, targeted content is enough alone to keep content marketers relevant in the battle against ChatGPT.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ChatGPT may be able to recite information in a human tone, but it doesn&#8217;t \u2018know\u2019 who it\u2019s writing for.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Half of the effort that comes with content writing is creating a piece in a tone that speaks to your demographic. If you release an AI-generated article that doesn&#8217;t appeal to your audience, don\u2019t be surprised if your engagement rates are low.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-174127 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"http:\/\/realbusiness.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Personalised-content.png\" alt=\"Personalised content\" width=\"1200\" height=\"912\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-174127 lazyload\" src=\"http:\/\/realbusiness.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Personalised-content.png\" alt=\"Personalised content\" width=\"1200\" height=\"912\" srcset=\"https:\/\/realbusiness.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Personalised-content.png 1200w, https:\/\/realbusiness.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Personalised-content-300x228.png 300w, https:\/\/realbusiness.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Personalised-content-1024x778.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(Image Source: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/explodingtopics.com\/blog\/personalization-stats\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exploding Topics<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t just take our word for it, though. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/explodingtopics.com\/blog\/personalization-stats\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">87% of consumers<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> expect some degree of personalisation in the content they consume.
