As fears seem to subside regarding AI and blogging I want to discuss the 5 levels of fooling required to actually grow a thriving, sustainable, long-term business on AI blogging alone.
AI recycles words to “create” blog posts.
AI is a sophisticated form of article spinning.
Most people who closely follow Blogging From Paradise trust the blog because a human being writes these words based on a genuine experience.
Would people trust my blog and return often if each post consisted of recycled words repackaged by a bot?
Nope.
Bloggers who publish AI-generated content try to fool human readers into believing that the AI content is content written by humans. The jig is up once humans perceive content to be created by something that does not exist, versus a living, breathing human being.
In order to build a full time, profitable, professional blogging career an AI blogger needs to fool a steady volume of highly-targeted human beings through a series of 5 stages again, and again, and again.
Good luck with that.
Peep these 5 stages.
1: Fool People to Read the Entire Blog Post
First, AI bloggers need to fool people into reading an entire blog post without spotting AI-induced red flags.
After reading 3 sentences proof-read by a sloppy blogger I almost always spot “Captain Caveman” speak. Neanderthal blogging reveals that AI generated the post. One split second later, I close the blog, never to return again.
All the best with trying to build a profitable business resting on a blog with a sky high bounce rate.
Most AI bloggers never fool enough folks to get past this point. AI detectors seem as strong as ever these days.
2: Fool People to Trust the Content as Being Credible
Imagine a sharp-minded human who finishes reading a blog post.
Now the person needs to trust the content as being credible.
AI – a non-sentient, inanimate collection of numbers programmed – needs to convince a human that the blog post is trustworthy, credible and worth believing in as a viable resource.
Remember guys; the post is a higher level of article spinning. A glorified bot grabs words from the web, recycles the words and repackages as a blog post.
AI may be getting smarter but humans are a step ahead of artificial intelligence in most regards.
You may fool a few folks up until this point….but the next step becomes incredibly difficult to execute.
3: Fool People to Return to the Blog Frequently to Read and Trust Perceived Credible Content
As any entrepreneur who ever existed knows: you only build a thriving business by attracting return followers, customers and clients.
Now you need to fool readers into becoming return readers. Fooling readers again and again is no small task in a world of increased human sophistication.
Basically guys, humans buy AI-generated bullshit less and less by the week because AI-generated alertness is an an all-time high.
Humans want human bloggers to publish content with their skills and experience. Anything less flashes red flags.
The next step proves to be an even stiffer challenge.
4: Fool People into Buying eBooks or Clicking Ads or Hiring Humans for Services
Now you need to fool people enough to where they actually spend money on your blog based on the quality, depth, clarity, detail and authentic nature of AI-generated blog posts.
The content needs to be genuine and trustworthy enough to fool people to click on ads, to buy eBooks or to hire bloggers.
Does recycled content earn trust? People buy based on trust. Now you reached the point of tricking people to trust that a human being who writes eBooks and offers services has been writing the AI-generated blog posts so far.
Disconnects surface at this point. Does your AI-generated, recycled content emotionally move a human being to trust that your eBook and coaching both deliver? Do you see how quickly a disconnect arises at this stage? The post may be OK but is it good enough for someone to trust you to self-publish a dazzling eBook or to offer premium coaching services?
Now let’s visit the final hurdle.
5: Fool People into Promoting Blogs to Boost Referral Business
This is the money shot stage of fooling readers.
Now you need to trick readers into putting their name, their reputation, their credibility, their blogs and their business or jobs on the line.
Now you have to fool them into promoting your:
- blog
- blog posts
- products
- services
to boost your referral business.
Humans are incredibly picky about who they endorse, what they promote and what they share online.
Overcoming the fear of reputation, credibility and income loss to trick readers into promoting AI-generated content would either be the ultimate heist in smoke, mirrors and deception or proof that the next “extinction level event” asteroid slamming into planet earth would be doing us all a favor.
Conclusion
Minus some pejorative ball-busting, you need to put your mind into a deep sleep to be fooled by all five steps above.
Tricking readers into believing that your AI-generated posts are human-written to the point of readers growing referral business repeatedly is almost impossible. Fooling people dozens of times is incredibility difficult, especially as masses of human beings awaken to this ridiculous blogging sham.
Stop trying to fool people with AI-generated blog posts. You will regret the backlash after the initial money grab turns into an orgy of fraud lawsuits.
Write your own content.
Sleep well at night.
Prosper.
