To ensure AI-generated content follows community guidelines, integrate clear guidelines into AI programming, use accurate moderation systems, and combine human oversight with regular audits and responsive feedback mechanisms.
Optimization of authenticity in AI content generation
During AI content generation, it is still relevant to maintain authenticity. One must be cautious and find a balance between using and not using the AI-related technologies and products. Currently, the existing strategies to ensure optimal authenticity levels have been proposed, including:
Understanding what AI content is: AI content is predominantly developed with definite formulas and algorithms, upon the analysis of the corresponding aforementioned technique vast datasets. This stipulates the necessity of understanding the basic limitations related to the content type. Without the understanding of the patterns and structures currently identified by AI, one will not be able to determine the appropriate strategies and algorithms to support content authenticity.
Deciding whether it will be a platform incorporated strategy for the AI content production or an optional one: if the former option is pursued, you will have to ensure that users are aware of the specifics of the process. In this way, the targeted platforms should provide rich insights into the modes of content generation, clearly indicate all the AI-generated content that the users may face, and provide definite toggles for users, ignoring the AI-generated content.
Building trust with disclosure: if the transition is not planned and you are using AI, the respective issues need to be clearly disclosed. It is still important to divulge that the used systems and algorithms may be biased, so the corresponding strategies for bias minimalization need to be clearly demonstrated. In this way, the use of AI technology/algorithm in one’s content may be advantageous but only if one assumes responsibility for the availability of the information about the role of AI in his or her content.
Ensuring Quality Input for Reliable AI Content:
Data Foundation Milestone
In order to guarantee the quality of further AI output, it is essential to lay the groundwork in the form of data foundation. This step presupposes the selection of the most appropriate and extensive dataset that can provide the AI with as much information as possible. Moreover, the provided data, and various opinions it includes, should exclude any possible bias. Customarily, the AI needs to have the most recent updates as well. By ensuring that the bases are covered at the stage of the data foundation, it is possible to guarantee that the output will allow the target audience to learn and engage with any content easily.
Crafting Prompts
The prompts that are passed to the AI can be seen as a building plan since they provide the AI with direction and context for creation. To make sure that the content provided by the AI will be relevant, one must be corresponding clear, and concise. As a result, the AI will get the concept that needs to be implemented, providing the type of content that is expected. It is crucial not to let the AI providers come up with an adequate prompt, ensuring that it is detailed and specific. For instance, instead of providing instructions to “write an article,” the prompt should give explicit instructions, such as “come up with the 500-word long article on the topic of sustainable lifestyle targeted at millennials.” Such precision will increase the AI output quality since the text provided will correspond word for word with users’ expectations.
Transition: Roles
In the light of the development of AI technologies aimed at creating texts, the responsibilities of a writer should be changed to the role of a checker of how well the AI performed its functions. The goal of a checker is to implement the text, between which there is content, messages, and style and the one AI wrote. Notably, checkers can adjust certain phrasing and facts or add the creative part that AI lacked.
A strong combination of data, prompts, and checking help you to obtain reliable and valuable AI content. At the same time, you can test the received text for a level of resonance with the intended audience. For example, here are some strategies that can help you evaluate the constructed AI text:
- Research the value and clarity of the content. First, assess if the content conveys the intended message and is understandable for the audience. Use tools to get a readability score, especially if you create a text for a general audience. The human value score, also known as the Flesch reading-ease score, should be between 60 and 70 for most types of content: “If your audience is very advanced, keep the readability rating around 60. If your content is for everyone, aim for 70” [1].
- Test methods for unbiased feedback. Conduct an unbiased test to receive honest feedback. Use focus groups, run surveys, or compare two versions of the content where the better version is produced by AI. “You can obtain unbiased feedback using A/B tests on groups of people who represent your target audience. Dozens of people work better than big focus groups” [1]. Ensure they understand the assignment and what constitutes effective feedback.
- Content research metrics and questions. Formulate specific questions and metrics that will help you understand if your content produced by AI is good enough: “Business owners should ask readers who tested the product if the content met their expectations, whether they would share it with friends and pronounce the name of the product in public, how it can improve their lives, and what it tells about them” [1]. The metrics include the time spent on the content piece, engagement, amount of shared content, and overall time spent reading.
These strategies help you assess the resonance of AI-generated content and create content that not only captivates users but also builds a stronger rapport with them. Here are the steps to help you refine AI content while also adhering to community standards:
Gather and analyze feedback
Collecting feedback is crucial for assessing resonance and improving AI content. Use both quantitative and qualitative methods to understand how your users are reacting to the content. For example, collect user data on your website or forums, such as upvotes, comments, shares, and so on, and run surveys with your users. The survey questions can be crafted to understand what resonated with your users and what was off-putting to them. Make sure to ask for examples of AI content that they either liked or didn’t like.
Refine the prompts iteratively
The format and content of the prompts that you use continue to greatly impact the end result. Use the feedback gathered in step 1 for iterative refinement of content prompts. For example, if users found a particular answer to be boring and overly technical, adjust your prompt such that the AI is asked for an answer that is simpler, broader, and more engaging.
Define the criteria for a community-aligned prompt
Have a clear definition of what constitutes a prompt that lives up to your community’s standards. For example, your criteria can be divided into three categories: the level of engagement, positive sentiment analysis, and compliance with the community rules. Use these criteria consistently for the purposes of assessing the success of your AI content. For example, if some type of AI content consistently receives high engagement and positive reinforcement, it makes sense to double down on producing more of it.
With the help of these replies, you will manage to get your AI content follow the community standards or even surpass them. It is better to prepare than to work in the reactive mode. As a result, your content is more likely not only to be accepted by the community but to fuel a more positive interaction in it. Perfecting AI Content Through User’s Responses
Enhancing AI content to be able to respond with the users, one has to ensure the proper feedback loops and try to improve continuously. Here’s how to achieve that:
Collect and analyze user reactions
It is highly advised to proactively ask users for their responses. This feedback can be provided through various means: surveys, the comment section, or social media. Try to then analyze such data to define the users’ interactions: click-through rates, time that was spent on page, and whether the content was shared. Achieving a bird’s eye view of the interaction with your content is worth focusing on it to properly refine this content.
AI content impact on user experience and ways to measure it
The primary goal for the AI content is to improve user experience. Use such data as the RP-Score and the bounce rate. Such a bounce rate should be lower increasingly higher than 40%. If the users’ satisfaction is expressed with the help of the RP-Score, the accepted level of such a score in the business context is 8. Use these metrics to define the overall impact of your AI content and apply further improvements quite frequently. It is especially advised to use such insights as patterns based on the collected feedback. Try to make sure that such changes and improvements will have a positive effect on your content’s interaction levels.
Actively integrating user feedback into the AI content development process is an effective way to create content that not just meets user’s expectations but even exceeds it, leading to a better user experience that assures better loyalty to the brand or platform.
