Technical Definition
AI content is text generated by LLMs like ChatGPT or Claude. Google's position: AI content isn't inherently bad; quality and value to users matter. The Helpful Content Update targets low-value content regardless of how it's created. Best practice: use AI as a tool but add human expertise, original insights, and thorough editing.
Simple Explanation (ELI13)
AI content is writing created by AI tools like ChatGPT. Google says it's okay to use AI, but the content still needs to be helpful and valuable. Publishing lots of low-quality AI content without editing won't work. Think of AI as a helpful assistant, not a replacement for human expertise and editing.
