Artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized how we create and consume content.

It can affect SEO due to Low-quality, spam, and Duplicate content.

Google can know AI content for real, through the writing style, grammar, and vocabulary used.

There has been no conclusive study proving that AI content negatively impacts SEO.

However, some experts speculate that as language models advance, search engines may develop the ability to detect artificial text.

Google’s algorithms are already quite sophisticated:

  1. able to understand context
  2. sentiment
  3. topic relevance

Some think Google may soon integrate techniques like machine learning to discern the nuances that differentiate human vs AI writing.

For example, analyzing syntactic variations, cultural references, or measuring response unpredictability.

However direct evidence is still lacking.

And it remains an open question if prioritizing “human-ness” would provide a better user experience.

Only time will tell if search engines start directly penalizing or filtering AI content.

As an SEO, it’s best to focus on creating helpful, unique content for your audience, whether authored by humans or machines.

AI-generated content for SEO can be effective for creating pages that rank, but there are some stipulations to it. Some of the shortcomings include;

  • The content lacks originality
