AI content tools have transformed content production. Used intelligently, they reduce the time to create a first draft from hours to minutes. Used carelessly, they produce generic, unhelpful content that Google penalises as low-quality. The key is understanding exactly where AI adds value and where it does not.
Google's Current Position on AI Content
Google's official position is that it does not penalise AI generated content per se, it penalises low-quality, unhelpful content regardless of how it was produced. Content generated by AI that is accurate, original, useful, and demonstrates genuine expertise will rank. Bulk-generated, factually inaccurate, or unreviewed AI content will not.
How to Use AI as a Research and Outline Tool
The right way to use AI for Wix SEO content
- 1Use AI to generate a detailed outline: "Create a detailed outline for a blog post about [topic] targeting the keyword [keyword]"
- 2Review and refine the outline, add sections you know are missing, remove any that are irrelevant
- 3Use AI to draft individual sections, one at a time, not the whole article at once
- 4Rewrite every AI generated paragraph in your own voice, add personal experience, specific examples, and accurate data
- 5Fact-check every claim the AI makes, hallucinations are common and damaging
- 6Add original insights that only you can provide: case studies, client results, personal opinions
- 7Run through a human edit checklist before publishing
The Human Edit Checklist
- Remove all generic phrases: "In conclusion", "It's important to note", "Delve into", "In today's digital landscape"
- Add at least one piece of specific, verifiable data or statistic
- Add at least one personal experience or direct example from your own work
- Ensure the opening paragraph hooks immediately, no slow warm-ups
- Check every factual claim is accurate
- Ensure the content matches the search intent of the target keyword
