AI Articles

Today, we are all searching for creating content that stands out. It’s that perfect mix of information and personality that truly captures people’s attention and builds our online presence. And this is where artificial intelligence (AI) comes into play, changing the way we create content. Tools like ChatGPT have been a breakthrough, making things much easier for us by allowing us to brainstorm ideas and outline content more quickly than ever before.

However, even with this technology at our disposal, producing unique and high-quality content still presents challenges. The chat-type interaction in AI, although innovative, often requires continuous manual follow-up by the user to shape an extensive article. This can turn content creation into a more laborious task than necessary, limiting the efficiency and fluidity of the creative process.

What if there was a better, more personalized, and efficient way to create those extensive and engaging articles we all seek? This is where AI Content Labs comes into play, offering you the power to customize your content like never before.

The Challenge of Creating Customized Content

Currently, many innovative tools often leave us wishing for more freedom to adapt and fine-tune our content. Among them, we can mention:

  • ChatGPT and Chat-Type Interaction: The magic of conversing with an AI to develop ideas is undeniable, but this process can become repetitive and laborious, especially when we aim to elaborate extensive articles. The nature of chat-type interaction means that we often have to guide and correct the AI, which can slow down the process and make customization require more effort than expected.
  • “Ready-to-Use” Tools: There are numerous platforms that promise to generate complete content with just a few clicks. Although the idea is attractive, the reality is that these tools rarely offer the level of customization that many brands and creators need. The result can be content that feels generic and disconnected from the unique voice of the publisher.
  • The Search for Flexibility: Faced with these limitations, content creators seek solutions that offer greater flexibility and control over the outcome. Customization is not just about adjusting the tone or choosing topics, but having the ability to influence every aspect of the article, from its structure to the types of AI models used in its creation.

In this sense, it is crucial to have a tool that not only understands our customization needs but also offers an efficient and fluid way to create content that resonates with our audience. This is where generic tools fall short, and the need for more advanced and adaptable platforms like AI Content Labs arises, allowing true customization in content creation.

AI Content Labs: A Customizable Solution

After identifying these challenges in creating customized content, we have created AI Content Labs, providing a platform where customization and adaptability are at the heart of its design.

A Platform Focused on Customization

AI Content Labs allows users to dive deep into content customization. Unlike traditional tools, which often limit users’ ability to influence the structure and flow of their articles, AI Content Labs puts these critical decisions in the hands of those who know them best: the content creators.

This platform stands out by allowing users to design the structure and prompts of their articles. Whether it’s a research article with well-defined sections or a freely flowing narrative story, users can set the order and content of each section according to their specific needs. This capability not only facilitates greater consistency with the desired brand and tone but also improves the relevance and accuracy of the final content.

Flexibility in Selecting AI Models

Another powerful aspect of AI Content Labs is the possibility to choose from various AI models for different sections of the content. This feature recognizes that not all parts of an article require the same level of complexity or detail. For example, generating initial ideas might need a faster and less detailed model, while deep analysis of a topic could benefit from a more advanced model capable of understanding and processing greater complexities.

The choice between different models allows users to optimize the content creation process, effectively balancing the cost and production time with the quality and depth of the generated content. This modular and flexible approach is not only a way to better control resources but also ensures that the final content is of high quality and aligned with the specific goals of the creator.

In other words, AI Content Labs offers you the best of both worlds: the efficiency of AI tools and the depth and richness of content that only customization can provide.

How to create long-form articles using AI

Once the importance and value of personalization in AI content creation are understood, it’s essential to explore how AI Content Labs facilitates this process, especially for extensive and personalized articles. Below, we will guide you through two essential approaches that AI Content Labs makes possible: the creation of articles with fixed structure and with variable structure.

Creation of Articles with Fixed or Standard Structure

Fixed structure articles are those that follow a predefined format or outline. Common examples include:

  • Product descriptions.
  • Recipes.
  • User manuals.
  • Reviews.
  • Research articles, etc.

This type of format is especially useful in contexts where consistency and clarity are fundamental to facilitate understanding and comparison between different elements.

Example:

Imagine you have a recipe site, and you want your posts to have the following structure:

  • Recipe Title: A descriptive and attractive name for the recipe.
  • Photo of the Finished Dish: A visually appealing image of the final result.
  • Introduction/Brief Description: A short paragraph that may include the dish’s history, its origin, why it is special, or any interesting related data.
  • Basic Information: Preparation time. Cooking time. Servings. Difficulty level (for example, easy, medium, advanced).
  • Ingredients: A detailed list of ingredients, including precise quantities. Substitution options for allergenic or hard-to-find ingredients.
  • Preparation Instructions: Detailed and ordered steps to prepare the dish. Information on cooking times and specific temperatures, if applicable. Tips for specific techniques or critical steps for the recipe’s success.
  • Tips and Tricks: Suggestions for customizing the recipe. Tips for preparation or cooking that may help improve the dish or make the process easier.
  • Recipe Variants: Ideas to vary the recipe and create alternative versions of the dish.
  • Nutritional Information: Nutritional data per serving, including calories, proteins, fats, carbohydrates, etc.
  • Frequently Asked Questions: Questions and answers about the recipe.

Step 1: Log In and Create a New Flow

First, access your account on AI Content Labs. Once inside, locate the button to create a new flow and name it “Recipes”. This name will help you easily identify the purpose of your flow when working on multiple projects.

Step 2: Define the Flow Input

The next step is to define the input for your flow. In this case, the input to start the flow will be the name of the recipe you want to prepare. You do this by selecting the “Add input” option and completing the data.

Add Input Recipe Name Input

 

Step 3: Create Prompts for Each Section of the Article

Now it’s time to detail the content of your article. For each section (such as the title, introduction, ingredients, etc.), you will create a specific prompt:

Add Prompt

 

Recipe Title Prompt Node Blog Creation with AI

To create the title prompt, we have included a system message. This message gives context to the AI on how to respond to achieve a coherent and relevant output.

System Message: You are a specialist in culinary content creation for the web. You write in a reader-friendly manner, with a professional but easy-to-read tone of voice.

You do not provide greetings or additional texts, you simply provide the response to the given instruction.

Prompt: Generate a descriptive and attractive title for a {Recipe} recipe that will be published on our blog.

###
RESULT:

Within each prompt, you can insert specific variables (marked with “{}”) to further customize the content. These variables can be any element you want to vary, such as the name of the dish, and will be linked with the corresponding values during the flow setup.

Below you will find the prompts generated for the other sections. The same system message approach will be used for each section, ensuring consistency throughout the article.

Introduction:

Frequently Asked Questions Prompt Node

Each prompt within AI Content Labs can be individually customized, allowing you to meticulously adjust the parameters that dictate its behavior and results. This includes the ability to set specific levels of creativity and define the desired length for the generated responses. Moreover, for those users looking to fine-tune the AI’s performance even further, there are advanced options such as penalization and Top P, among others, that offer more precise control over the AI’s interpretation and response to each prompt.

In addition to this, we provide you with the flexibility to select from different AI models, allowing you to choose the one that best suits the specific needs of your project. This feature is especially valuable for tailoring content generation to different contexts and objectives, from activities that require quick and less complex responses to those that demand deep and detailed analysis. Thus, the generated content is not only unique and relevant but also perfectly aligned with your expectations, specific goals, and the demands of your audience.

AI Model Selection

Step 4: Generate Images

To complement your article, AI Content Labs allows you to connect with image creation models. Access the other tools section and drag the image node to the workspace. The prompt for the image will use the article’s title as a basis.

Image Tool Image Node

Step 5: Link the Sections

Finally, you must link the sections within your flow to ensure that the content develops logically and coherently.

This linking establishes the content sequence and specifies how the results of one section influence or are passed to the next sections. Simply drag and drop to connect the nodes in the desired order, ensuring that the information flow reflects perfectly the structure of your article.

AI Flow

Step 6: Execute the Flow

Once you have set up your flow with all the necessary prompts, it’s time to execute it. Enter the name of the recipe, and AI Content Labs will process the information to generate the complete recipe article, from the title to the frequently asked questions, including the image of the finished dish. For our example, we will place the Valencian Paella.

Fixed Structure Article - Recipe

You can read the complete result here.

This approach demonstrates the efficiency and adaptability of AI Content Labs in creating customized content. You can use the same flow to generate a variety of recipe articles, simply by changing the name. Moreover, this flow can serve as a template: simply by duplicating it, you have the perfect base to adapt it to new needs. Enter this link to start customizing your content workflow, expanding the creative possibilities at your disposal.

Next, we will review how to create long-form blog articles, which have a variable structure. This type of articles seeks greater flexibility, allowing us to adapt the content structure to the specific needs of each topic or narrative style.

Creation of Articles with Variable or Flexible Structure

Articles with a variable structure offer greater creative freedom. They do not follow a fixed scheme, making them ideal for blogs, narratives, and any content that requires an adaptive structure.

It’s important to note that although these articles do not follow a fixed structure, that does not mean they lack organization. The organization of ideas and clarity in presentation remain fundamental, but they are achieved in a more fluid manner, adaptable to the needs of the topic being addressed or the author’s style.

Although this flexibility can be a challenge, AI Content Labs provides a special type of node, such as the Text Splitter, which allows for dividing and handling content in a more dynamic way.

Example:

As we mentioned earlier, articles with a variable structure are perfect for topics that require greater flexibility and adaptability. Here we guide you step by step on how to create them using an AI flow.

Step 1: Access and Initial Setup

First, log in to AI Content Labs and select the option to create a new flow. We will name it “Generic Articles” to identify it.

Step 2: Establish the Inputs

Define the inputs as the starting point of the flow. For our example, we will use the article’s topic as the main input; however, you can configure more inputs such as tone of voice, audience, etc., depending on your needs.

Topic Input for the blog article

 

Step 3: Creation of the first prompts

Just like in the first example, the first prompts (Title, Introduction, and Outline) will be generated:

 

Blog AI title prompt

Title:

Based on the topic {Topic}, write a title that captures the readers' attention for a blog article.

###
RESULT:

Introduction:

Write a blog introduction for an article called {Title} on the topic {Topic}.

This introduction must capture the reader's attention from the first moment with some relevant statistical data. The introduction must be a maximum of two paragraphs and must also give an idea of what will be addressed throughout the article.

###
RESULT:

Outline:

Based on the following information:

###
Title: {Title}.
###
Introduction: {Introduction}
###

Create a list of H2 subtitles that develop the topic {Topic} in the most complete way possible, but without unnecessary filler. Each subtitle should be separated by a line break and should not include additional information. The number of subtitles will depend on the extent of the topic, but it should be between 6 and 7 subtitles mostly, however, try to focus more on the more general aspects of the topic, so that it can be further deepened later.

###
RESULT:

At this point, we can test the progress of our flow by clicking on the “Test” button:

AI Blog Test

As seen, the outline prompt generates a block of text that requires individualized processing. This is where the “Text Splitter” functionality comes into play.

Step 4: Using the Text Splitter for Flexible Structure

To divide the content into manageable sections, implement a “Text Splitter” or Text Divider node to separate the results of the outline.

Text Divider for blog outline

In this way, any node that derives from a “Text Splitter” or its descendants will be processed individually for each resulting text from the division. It is worth mentioning that, by default, the Text Splitter divides the text according to line breaks. However, it is possible to specify an alternative division pattern in the “Output Settings” section.

Step 5: Connecting the sections with the “Text Splitter”

For each section or subtitle identified in the outline, we will configure sections that allow the AI to develop specific and detailed content for that part of the article. The sections, with their respective prompts, to be created, are:

Image Prompt:

Based on the article with title {Title} on the topic {Topic}; create a prompt for an image that reflects the section {Section} in the best possible way.

###
RESULT:

Image for each subtitle

This image node connects with the prompt generated in the previous section.

Section Development:

Based on the following information:

###
Topic: {Topic}.
###
Title: {Title}.
###
Introduction: {Introduction}
###
Complete Outline: {Outline}
###

Develop the section corresponding to the subtitle {Subtitle}. This development must include an initial paragraph, simple, short, and concise that invites reading the entire section, then it should expand on the topic. You can use H3 subtitles according to the breadth of the section, in the same way, you can use tables, lists, examples, recommendations, advice, warnings, or another element that makes it easier for the user to understand. You must take into account that the section should not contain information that corresponds to another section. Do not add a conclusion.

Start directly with the paragraph, meaning, it is not necessary to repeat the name of the section in your response.

###
RESULT:

Finally, we will create a prompt for the conclusion. This section will not be generated for each subtitle but will be included at the end of the article.

Conclusion:

Based on the following information:

###
Title: {Title}.
###
Outline: {Outline}
###

Create an effective, concise, and powerful conclusion that closes the article on the topic {Topic}.

###
RESULT:

The final flow looks like this:

AI Blog Flow Creation

Step 6: Execute the Flow

Once your flow is configured with all the necessary prompts, it’s time to execute it. We will use the same topic as in the previous case, “Valencian Paella” and see what result it provides us with the flexible structure.

AI article with flexible structure

The complete result can be found here. You can also try this template, duplicate it, and adapt it at this link.

Maximum Customization

With AI Content Labs, customization goes beyond the article’s structure. You can choose from various AI models for each section of your content, ensuring that each part is generated with the appropriate precision and focus. This means that for sections requiring creativity and fluidity, such as a narrative, you can opt for a more advanced AI model. For other more direct or informative sections, a faster and less complex model may be sufficient.

Below, we present some use cases and recommendations to make the most of AI flows:

Articles with User-Entered Outline

If you wish to define your subtitle outline or specify which sections an article should include, you can create an input that receives the list of subtitles or a text detailing these sections. This list can be formatted with a prompt and divided according to your needs.

An example of this use case is available at this link.

Recommendations to Optimize Your Workflow

When customizing and defining the structure of your articles in AI Content Labs, it’s important to keep in mind some key recommendations to ensure a smooth and successful process:

  • Know the API Limits: Before designing your flow, familiarize yourself with the limits of the chosen AI model’s API. This will help you avoid issues during execution, ensuring that your flow completes without interruptions.
  • Optimize Content Length: Adjust the length of your inputs and responses according to the AI model’s capabilities to maximize the efficiency and quality of the generated content.
  • Test and Adjust: Experiment with different structures and AI models. Test your flows and adjust as necessary to find the perfect balance between speed, cost, and content quality.

AI Content Labs: Focused on Personalization and Creativity

At AI Content Labs, we aim to redefine what personalization means in content creation. By giving creators complete control over every aspect of their articles, from structure to the choice of AI model, this platform empowers everyone to let their creativity flow without restrictions.

The future of content lies not only in the information we share but in how we adapt it to truly resonate with our audience, making each piece a personalized masterpiece.
