What are text generative neural networks capable of?

ChatGPT appeared in the fall of 2022. Even after the neural network's presentation, many were skeptical.

But in 2024, several neural networks are developing at once, competing with each other in creativity when writing marketing texts. Artificial intelligence writes poetry, advertising texts for newsletters, and generates code. And just ten years ago, this was considered unattainable.

But when using neural networks in your work, remember the statement of the writer and philosopher Elbert Hubbard.

β€” One machine can do the work of five people. But no machine can replace one outstanding person.

Neural networks are actively developing, and improved versions are appearing. But they are just a tool. They cannot do everything instead of real people. And here's why:

  • Unreliable information.Neural networks do not always provide accurate information. If the database does not have enough data, AI may invent information. The tool will rely on sources that are similar in context. This effect is called "hallucination" and is somewhat similar to how search engines work. If a search engine cannot find an exact match for a four-word keyword, it returns results pages that contain only two or three words. Therefore, the text needs to be checked for authenticity.

πŸ’‘ This also applies to more serious topics. For example, GPT described the symptoms of a non-existent Movsesyan hemangioma. Instead of answering that such a disease does not exist.

  • Biased answers.Sometimes the generated text is biased towards certain people or events. This happens because the answers are based on published articles on the internet. For example, an article in the tabloids. The results must be treated critically and double-checked;
  • Incorrect wording. The creators have fixed this issue. Recently, the text has become cleaner, without typos and punctuation errors. But there are still semantic errors, incorrect word declensions, and tautologies;
  • The result is not on the first try. The neural network is like a black box. When you enter a prompt, it is impossible to guess what the output will be. Sometimes you have to change the task many times to achieve the result. For example, asking to write the text one paragraph at a time;

πŸ’‘ Prompt is a free-form request for the neural network. For example: "Write me an article about frontend development. "We need to explain in detail what this is."

  • Meaningless content.The main limitation is that neural networks do not yet produce deep, meaningful content. For example, ChatGPT is suitable for social networks and is often used by SMM managers. This is because the texts for social networks are short. When generating a small volume, artificial intelligence does not get confused in the wording.

When trusting a neural network, it is important to remember that the system is trained on the texts of real authors. And for every one article written by an expert or a good journalist, there are hundreds of bad materials written for the sake of volume and promotion in search engines. Artificial intelligence can't come close to the level of good writers.

But there are also advantages. Neural networks automate and speed up text creation.

  • They help overcome the "fear of a blank page".When it's hard to get started, artificial intelligence is an excellent idea generator. Ask a question and get solutions that can be developed;
  • They provide structure. Automatically creating an outline with headings and short section outlines saves a lot of time. Especially when working with an unfamiliar topic. The outline will tell you what information to look for;
  • Simplify research.Neural networks collect facts and provide links to sources. But the data still needs to be verified;
  • Create a brief.It is enough to briefly outline the essence. A completed brief helps to better understand the task and obtain a clear text for a specific audience;
  • aria-level="1">They write meta tags, title, and description.Neural networks make a summary of long texts. Tags with short descriptions are also no problem for them. This way, artificial intelligence reduces the routine work of content managers and SEO specialists;
  • They change the tone of the letter.They will adjust the text to the brand's voice in a few seconds;
  • They do rewriting.The neural network will rewrite a blog article into a script for YouTube or an email for a newsletter. Splits text into several parts for a post or storytelling on social networks;
  • Analyzes the text and adds keywords.AI creates an SEO article from scratch or organically fits keywords into the text.

5 neural networks that will help you write text

There is no leader among neural networks; each tool has its own features and advantages. Therefore, in addition to the description, the editors of Skillbox.by analyzed popular tools.

No.1. OpenAI ChatGPT

Β

ChatGPT is a chatbot with artificial intelligence. GPT stands for Generative Pre-trained Transformer. The most popular technology, based on which many teams create their projects. For example, Yandex GPT.

Working with the neural network occurs in a dialog box. The interface resembles a messenger or interactive chats on websites. Only GPT has more capabilities:

  • Maintains a conversation, remembering the context of messages and responses;
  • Writes text blocks on any topic: from scientific articles to posts on social networks;
  • Creates scripts for plays, films, computer games;
  • Writes program code in any programming language;
  • Writes poetry and song lyrics;
  • Performs financial analysis;
  • Gives advice: from planning your day to choosing an outfit for a party.

GPT communicates in all languages ​​​​that are publicly available online and in electronic archives. But he has mastered English and Spanish thoroughly. In other languages, he is less able to conduct a dialogue and generate content.

Pros

βœ… Understands natural speech, remembers the context and maintains a dialogue;

βœ… Writes blocks of text and short articles, posts for social networks and letters for email newsletters. Translates texts, checks style and purity;

βœ… Analyzes and systematizes data. If necessary, writes code or adds information to a table, prepares illustrations;

βœ… Goes online to search for facts and the latest information, provides links to sources. But you need to specify the requirement for this in the prompt.

βœ… Suitable for various professions whose work is related to text, information search and creativity. For example, screenwriters, marketers, copywriters and designers.

ChatGPT is free. The conditions change with each new update. But, usually, the basic version differs from the paid one only in speed and the limit on the number of requests per day. After exceeding the limit, the system switches to the old version or slows down. But there are enough free features for freelancers.

Cons

❌ Makes semantic errors. The problem has become less noticeable after updates, but it still exists;

❌ Does not understand the essence of the question and generates text that is far from the topic. The neural network often produces template answers;

For example, the neural network helps in the gaming industry. You can ask ChatGPT to write a script for a game based on a movie, book, comic, or cartoon. The chatbot will analyze the work, generate a list of levels, and suggest mechanics.

β„– 2. Jasper AI

According to the developers, Jasper is an AI assistant for marketing teams. The service helps create, adapt to specific tasks, and publish content for advertising campaigns faster.

Like ChatGPT, Jasper is a universal platform. The difference is that Jasper is tailored for marketers and copywriters. It's suitable for writing short posts and blocks of text. It can do native translation and change the writing style. It also has additional tools:

  • AI-powered chatbot builderfor websites, messengers, and mobile apps. Jasper can't completely replace a human, but it handles non-standard situations better than a regular bot. For example, it provides sources with product instructions or helps choose a payment method;
  • Reporting system.Displays the history of communication with the client, reports on projects in progress;
  • Built-in capabilities for working with images: analysis, generation;
  • Collaboration environment for teamsβ€” participants can be connected via e-mail address;
  • Content topic analysis. Jasper will sort content by topic if you need to quickly process a large volume of social media messages or blog articles. It will distinguish entertainment from science or sports.

Pros
