Can you spot the AI-generated content? I created a website powered by ChatGPT content.

Hello PH Community, Like many others, I've been experimenting with ChatGPT content and APIs. I tasked it with creating articles for a fictitious website related to idlis and idli cookers (Reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idli). I was impressed with the content it generated, so I decided to create a website called https://www.IdliCooker.com using the content and DALL-E generated images. Below are a few of the relevant prompts I used, along with the content I accepted and rejected: 1. Prompt: Generate a list of articles for idli cookers. Include how they are useful, the best brands, and where to buy them. ChatGPT generated a list of articles, product recommendations, and benefits. Although it couldn't generate accurate Amazon product links, it recommended suitable products and provided explanations. After some due diligence, I curated the links for the recommended products. 2. Prompt: Create a website with all the above content. ChatGPT generated an outline of the website homepage, including the logo, website name, navigation menu, featured articles, images, and footer. Note: I used DALL-E to create images based on descriptions. Three out of the eight images are DALL-E-generated, while the remaining are stock images. 3. Prompt: Can you create the homepage in HTML, which includes a list of articles based on the website structure? ChatGPT began generating a basic HTML outline for the website. While this was amazing, I abandoned the code because it lacked styling. I already had an HTML/CSS template that I could use to plug in the content and deploy the website. 4. Prompt: Create a monetization plan for IdliCooker.com. ChatGPT generated a list of strategies - E-commerce Store, Display Advertising, Sponsored Content, Affiliate Marketing. I updated the products with Amazon affiliate links. (Note the affiliate links are real, so I may get paid a commission if someone actually buys it). Is it this easy to monetize? Question: To me, the content is authentic and useful. As a human, can you spot the AI-generated content or do you need to be a SME? Does it matter is it is AI or not if the content is useful and relevant?

It actually looks pretty good! Maybe as we all follow the Ai market we might notice some parts but usual consumers won't see a thing. They won't even think about it. Really good stuff!

@vladimir_zivkovic thank you for the feedback. Yeah, I agree with you. From the consumer lens the information generated seems relevant.

I tend to think it will get better over time and we should amend our content to match our voice - Right now its hard to tell but I presume in the future it will be much better.
