What is AI and what it can do for you

What AI is and what it isn’t

Artificial intelligence is like a computer brain that can learn, reason, and solve problems, similarly to how humans do. Imagine having a robot that can understand your commands, learn from your feedback, and even make decisions based on what it learned.  That’s what AI does. It’s used in many areas, from helping your phone recognize your voice to predicting what you might want to buy online next. It’s important to remember that AI isn’t truly intelligent or capable of independent thought. It’s more about imitation than real intelligence. Here’s an example: if you show it a bunch of pictures of cats and tell it, “this is a cat,” it will be able to recognize cats in other images. But that’s because it’s learned to identify similarities between the images, not because it understands what a cat is.

How can AI help you?

AI can assist you in various tasks when you create content. You can:

• Write down your ideas and let AI transform them into an article.
• Use AI to suggest the right keywords for the content you’ve just created.
• Link similar content that AI suggests to create a relation between your articles.
• Employ AI translation to reach global audiences. 
• Leverage automatically tagged images to find the perfect illustration for your piece.
• Generate localized alt texts for your images to improve accessibility and SEO.

These are just the tip of the AI iceberg. AI can also generate photo-realistic images, compose music, or create videos. In this learning path, though, we focus on the AI skills available in Kontent.ai to enhance your productivity.
