Writers from the TREW team share how they're using AI chat technology in the writing process. They also give tips on when to use tools like ChatGPT Teams and how to construct prompts and chat threads to get better results.
Jamie Tokarz, Senior Content Strategist, and Julia Holliday, Senior Inbound Marketing Specialist, both use AI chat tools to take their projects up a notch. We discuss how they're using AI tools for research, ideation, content mapping, and editing, as well as how these tools have changed since they were first introduced. Has their output improved in quality, or are they still seeing issues with AI "hallucinations"? We also revisit the strategy for creating prompts and returning to previous chat threads.
We touch on various AI tools including ChatGPT Teams, Claude, Perplexity AI, and Gemini.
These two TREW Crew members emphasized that AI is a tool that enhances the writing process but doesn't replace human creativity. Tips for integrating AI into marketing processes include starting small, treating AI as an assistant, and iterating on prompts.
