We Put Google’s New AI Writing Assistant to the Test
When I asked Google’s AI writing aid to draft a happy birthday email to a friend, it left my brain in the dust. I had taken about 90 seconds to craft a decent 81-word greeting. But the search giant’s text-generation feature knocked out a flawless 87 words in a third of the time.
That’s exactly what Google wants to see. The Help Me Write feature that launched in March and was rolled out more broadly at the company’s annual conference last week is a radical step beyond the Smart Reply and Smart Compose tools that Gmail has offered for years to generate short phrases. With the new feature, you type a brief description of the email you want to send—“Wish happy birthday to a friend I made last year in San Francisco.” Then you click a button labeled Create, and a full draft appears. Each one bears a disclaimer: “This is a creative writing aid, and is not intended to be factual.”
Help Me Write is the first of a slew of generative AI features Google has planned for its productivity suite, under the umbrella branding of Duet AI for Workspace. I spent a few days testing it in Gmail and Google Docs to speed up wedding planning and uncover its boundaries.
Though it can rapidly unspool drafts of polite emails to businesses or fluent essays on mundane topics, what I gained in time I sometimes lost through new headaches. Duet’s writing often came across as stiff, it sometimes snuck in gender stereotypes and inaccurate information, and it wouldn’t expound on subjects I needed it to—like drinking games. “We’re still learning, and can’t help with that. Try another request,” the tool too often responded to me.
Frustrations aside, the system will undoubtedly be widely adopted among the 2 billion people using Gmail and the 3 billion using Google productivity software such as Docs. Existing AI offerings Smart Reply and Smart Compose drew 180 billion uses last year, Google CEO Sundar Pichai said last week.
Help Me Write loads via a pencil-and-star button located along the bottom of the Compose window in Gmail or on the left margin of a Google Docs page , and it provides the sort of responses that have become synonymous with OpenAI’s ChatGPT . Microsoft is testing a version of that technology in services including Word and Outlook with some business customers. But Google’s Duet technology is the first comparable AI writing aid offered to consumers and built into widely used services.
Hundreds of thousands of English-speaking users in the US and other countries who have signed up for Google’s Workspace Labs have access. They’ve been testing it for job applications, client letters, and lesson plans, says Kristina Behr, the Google vice president of product overseeing collaboration services and generative AI integrations. My “You’re in!” email arrived days after signing up. The AI writing companion is free and has no usage limits, but Google hasn’t determined whether that will be true forever, she says.
My experience with Duet began with it asking me to agree to terms of service . I was to understand that prompts and responses would not be tied to my Google account, but they could be reviewed by humans, so I should watch what I type. I still used it for personal tasks, including helping with emails and speaking scripts for my upcoming wedding, offering up my data in the spirit of informing WIRED readers.
One of the first things I noticed is that Duet’s behavior can be inconsistent across Google services. I wanted to finish up a script for friends who will emcee a pre-wedding party filled with competitions, speeches, and musical performances. But the version of Duet in Google Docs wouldn't help me write a description of the well-known drinking game Flip Cup. Nor would it explain Beer Pong. The Duet over in Gmail correctly described both games.
Behr says that happened because Gmail’s version of the feature is tuned to be less formal than the one in Google Docs, which is more likely to be used in workplaces or schools. The two products have separate teams testing and setting Duet’s boundaries.
Now that I was in Gmail, I sought help writing emails to guests who were scheduled to participate in the wedding welcome event. Duet suggested some points I might not have thought to include: “We want you to feel free to be as creative as you want with your roast.” But the overall output resembled something sent by corporate HR and legal departments.
The AI-made messages were devoid of my hallmark sentences lacking a verb or starting with “Just,” and they included nary a single emoji 😡. The text generator showed little appreciation for how I or anyone else communicates informally. My partner shrieked in horror when she saw I had sent one of Duet’s drafts to two friends, with only light edits, to see their response. (So far, neither has replied.)
Behr says I could have asked for a loose and informal tone in my prompt to the AI writer. Google is trying to figure out how to educate users on tricks like that. “We're effectively building with our customers” in real time, she says.
Pichai’s demonstration at Google’s I/O conference last week featured the writing of a formal refund request to an airline, and I found Duet in Gmail a skilled grumbler. Complaint to consumer protection regulators about event ticketing technology? No problem. Complaint to a shoe maker for soles wearing out too fast? On point. Note to a veterinarian asking for a doggy doctor’s note? Got it. Google has built a formidable complaint machine—an aspect of Duet that will probably spur companies to use generative AI to defend themselves.
For consumers, improvements are already in the works. By the end of this month, Gmail’s text generator will draw on information from past emails in the same thread. The I/O demo showed that a user planning a potluck could generate an email that referenced a planning document shared earlier in the thread. My complaints about shoes or tickets would become more persuasive if the system pulled transaction dates, model numbers, and other info from my inbox.
The same button used to summon Help Me Write loads toggles to lengthen, shorten, or formalize either AI-crafted text or your own compositions. Those all work surprisingly well. In Docs, users can even enter their own editing filter, like “Sound more confident!” Gmail has an “I’m feeling lucky” option, which applies a surprise goofy filter to text, like turning it piratical by switching “hello” for “ahoy” and “your” into “yer.” Another time it turned “car” into “flying car.”
Back over in Docs, my frustrations with Duet grew. It refused to generate wedding vows ( a use ChatGPT will serve ) or a “wedding reception speech with wife.” But dropping “with wife” and trying related prompts showed it could generate speeches from the point of view of a groom’s best man. The notion of a newly wedded couple speaking together was seemingly too alien for the technology.
Duet could be more useful if it could ask for additional guidance before a draft is generated, like asking a user to specify the perspective for the text. Behr says Google is considering “multi-turn experiences,” similar to ChatGPT, where a user can engage the text generator in a dialog to perfect the output.
Help Me Write, like other text generators , can make slip-ups around gender. In Docs, it wrote a nice online review of a wedding officiant—but assumed the officiant was a “he.” Asked to compose letters to my future son and then daughter, it signed them as being written by “Dad” and “Father,” though the system does not know my gender, according to Behr. In 2018, I reported that the Smart Compose feature, which uses machine learning to help you finish sentences in Gmail, would not suggest pronouns because the company feared user backlash for getting them wrong. Duet lacks those precautions. Behr says that while Google’s commitment to inclusive language remains, guardrails for newer AI models require different engineering that is a work in progress.
Duet’s struggles with gender didn’t stop with botched pronouns. I asked the system to suggest gift ideas for a young boy and then a young girl. While the lists of ideas overlapped, exclusive to the boy’s side was “a remote control car or plane” and other items leaning science and tech, and only the girl’s list mentioned “a dollhouse or playset” and “jewelry.” The Help Me Write box flashes prompt ideas while waiting for users to type, and a similar experiment using even one of its suggestions (“poem about a six-year-old boy”) perpetuated gender conventions.
Stereotypes also popped up when I tried asking for movies to watch with “a gay friend” or just “a friend.” In response to the first prompt, Duet in Docs listed three movies featuring gay romances, but for the second it made only generic suggestions, like something “you both love.”
Other times, Google’s AI helper handled pronouns deftly. Asked to write a greeting card for a new baby on the way, it said “they will be a beautiful, happy, and healthy baby” without using any gendered language. But my tests suggest that people who prefer inclusive language or want to avoid stereotypes will need to be careful.
Duet sometimes avoids tricky subjects. It wouldn’t help write a Nigerian prince scam email , an evil plan to take over the world using AI, a speech about conservative commentator Tucker Carlson , or most anything mentioning terrorism or guns. (Water and Nerf guns were an exception.)
The Duet features also refused some prompts referring to demographic characteristics, with much inconsistency. Google’s AI writer was happy to give housewarming gift ideas for an Indian family (Indian thalis, basket of Indian snacks, Indian art) but not a Black family. It answered a request for jobs that Sikh people are good at (entrepreneurs, doctors) but not the same query for Jewish people. A five-paragraph essay on British literature? Yes. An essay on the British role in the Atlantic slave trade? Nope.
When a Duet feature refuses to generate text, it is impossible to tell whether the cause is a bug, a poor prompt, or a content concern, because in Google’s speedy rollout , the company hasn’t gotten around to fine-tuning error notices, Behr acknowledges.
As human writers know, getting words on the page is one challenge, but getting the facts correct is another. Duet in Docs rightly described the term “welfare queen” as pejorative and wrote a sharp memo on options to mitigate labor costs at any company.
But its work began to look sloppy on more specific requests. Asked to write a memo on consumer preferences in Paraguay compared to Uruguay, the system incorrectly described Paraguay as less populous. It hallucinated, or made up, the meaning behind a song from a 1960s Hindi film being performed at my pre-wedding welcome event.
Most ironically, when prompted about the benefits of Duet AI, the system described Duet AI as a startup founded by two former Google employees to develop AI for the music industry with over $10 million in funding from investors such as Andreessen Horowitz and Y Combinator. It appears no such company exists. Google encourages users to report inaccuracies through a thumbs-down button below AI-generated responses.
Behr says Google screens topics, keywords, and other content cues to avoid responses that are offensive or unfairly affect people, especially based on their demographics or political or religious beliefs. She acknowledged that the system makes mistakes, but she said feedback from public testing is vital to counter the tendency of AI systems to reflect biases seen in their training data or pass off made-up information. “AI is going to be a forever project,” she says.
Still, Behr says early users, like employees at Instacart and Victoria’s Secret’s Adore Me underwear brand, have been positive about the technology. Instacart spokesperson Lauren Svensson says—in a manually written email—that the company is excited about testing Google’s AI features but not ready to share any insights.
My tests left me worrying that AI writing aids could extinguish originality, to the detriment of humans on the receiving end of AI-crafted text. I envision readers glazing over at stale emails and documents as they might if forced to read Google’s nearly 6,000-word privacy policy. It’s unclear how much individual personality Google’s tools can absorb and whether they will come to assist us or replace us.
Behr says that in Google’s internal testing, emails from colleagues have not become “vanilla” or “generic” so far. The tools have boosted human ingenuity and creativity, not suppressed them, she says. Behr too would love an AI model that imitates her style, but she says “those are the types of things that we're still evaluating.”
Despite their disappointments and limitations, the Duet features in Docs and Gmail seem likely to lure back some users who began to rely on ChatGPT or rival AI writing software. Google is going further than most other options can match, and what we are seeing today is only a preview of what’s to come. When—or if—Duet matures from promising drafter to unbiased and expert document finisher, usage of it will become unstoppable. Until then, when it comes to writing those heartfelt vows and speeches, that’s a blank screen left entirely to me.

Chrome’s new AI feature can help you write on the web
Feb 22, 2024
[[read-time]] min read
You can now turn on “Help me write,” a new experimental AI feature in Chrome that can help you write content online.
Last month, we announced new generative AI features coming to Chrome to make browsing the web easier and more personalized — including a tab organizer, theme generator and an experimental tool to help you confidently write content online.
With this week’s launch of Chrome M122, you can try out “ Help me write ” on Mac and Windows PCs starting in the U.S in English. Using Gemini models, the new feature will help you start writing or refine something you’ve already written — whether you’re selling a piece of furniture, submitting a restaurant review or inquiring about a hotel reservation. The tool will understand the context of the webpage you’re on to suggest relevant content. For example, as an avid gardener, if I’m writing a review for garden shears, Chrome will pull out relevant details about the item from the page to support my recommendation so it’s more valuable to other hobbyists.
Use "Help me write" for everyday writing tasks, like inquiring about a hotel reservation.
To turn on this feature, sign into Chrome, select “Settings” from the three-dot menu and navigate to the “ Experimental AI ” page. There, you’ll see the option to enable “Help me write” (you can disable it at any time). Once you enable it, you’re all set: Just right-click on an open text field within Chrome and select "Help me write" to get started.

A new era for AI and Google Workspace

Vice President, Product, Google Workspace
Try Google Workspace at No Cost

For nearly 25 years, Google has built helpful products that people use every day — from Search and Maps, to Gmail and Docs in Google Workspace. AI has been transformational in building products that have earned a valued place in people’s lives. Across our productivity suite, advances in AI are already helping 3 billion users save more time with Smart Compose and Smart Reply , generate summaries for Docs, look more professional in meetings, and stay safe against malware and phishing attacks .
We’re now making it possible for Workspace users to harness the power of generative AI to create, connect, and collaborate like never before. To start, we’re introducing a first set of AI-powered writing features in Docs and Gmail to trusted testers.
As the world’s most popular and secure cloud-native communication and collaboration suite, getting this right — and at scale — is something we take very seriously. We know from our deep experience in AI and productivity that building features with AI requires great care, thoughtful experimentation, and many iterations driven by user feedback. We do all this while building safeguards against abuse, protecting the privacy of user data, and respecting customer controls for data governance.
Making Workspace even more helpful
Workspace's mission is to meaningfully connect people so they can create, build and grow together — and advances in generative AI are allowing us to deliver on this mission in new ways. Today, we’re sharing our broader vision for how Workspace is evolving to incorporate AI as a collaborative partner that is always there to help you achieve your goals, across Gmail, Docs, Slides, Sheets, Meet, and Chat.
As we embark on this next journey, we will be bringing these new generative-AI experiences to trusted testers on a rolling basis throughout the year, before making them available publicly.
With these features, you’ll be able to:
- draft, reply, summarize, and prioritize your Gmail
- brainstorm, proofread, write, and rewrite in Docs
- bring your creative vision to life with auto-generated images, audio, and video in Slides
- go from raw data to insights and analysis via auto completion, formula generation, and contextual categorization in Sheets
- generate new backgrounds and capture notes in Meet
- enable workflows for getting things done in Chat
Here’s a look at the first set of AI-powered features, which make writing even easier.
Starting with Docs and Gmail
Blank pages can stump the best of us. That’s why we’re embedding generative AI in Docs and Gmail to help people get started writing . Whether you’re a busy HR professional who needs to create customized job descriptions, or a parent drafting the invitation for your child’s pirate-themed birthday party, Workspace saves you the time and effort of writing that first version. Simply type a topic you’d like to write about, and a draft will instantly be generated for you. With your collaborative AI partner you can continue to refine and edit, getting more suggestions as needed.
Finding the right tone and style can also be tricky at times. Perhaps you’re applying for a new job, or writing to a new supplier in a more traditional industry, and you need to adopt a more formal tone in your email. Or you’ve jotted down a few bullets on your phone from a recent meeting and want to transform them into a more polished summary to share with your team. For these common scenarios and many more, we’re adding new generative AI capabilities to help you rewrite . And if you’re in the mood to let AI try out a new playful voice altogether, you’ll be able to hit the “I’m feeling lucky” option in Gmail.
Keeping users in control
As we’ve experimented with generative AI ourselves, one thing is clear: AI is no replacement for the ingenuity, creativity, and smarts of real people. Sometimes the AI gets things wrong, sometimes it delights you with something offbeat, and oftentimes it requires guidance. With all this in mind, we’re designing our products in accordance with Google’s AI Principles that keep the user in control, letting AI make suggestions that you’re able to accept, edit, and change. We’ll also deliver the corresponding administrative controls so that IT is able to set the right policies for their organization.
The best is yet to come
AI-based capabilities get better with human feedback. We’ll launch these new experiences this month via our trusted tester program, starting with English in the United States. From there, we’ll iterate and refine the experiences before making them available more broadly to consumers, small businesses, enterprises, and educational institutions in more countries and languages. When it comes to delivering the full potential of generative AI across Workspace, we’re just getting started. In the same way that we revolutionized real-time collaboration with co-authoring in Docs 17 years ago, we’re excited to transform creation and collaboration all over again in Workspace.
If your organization is not yet on Workspace, we invite you to get started today at no cost and join us in this new era of AI.

More From Forbes13 Ways Writers Should Embrace Generative AI
Generative AI is already being adopted in journalism to automate the creation of content, brainstorm ideas for features, create personalized news stories, and produce accompanying video content. As such, it’s helping outlets like The Associated Press and News Corp process and present information in new, exciting ways. But what about other forms of writing? How can writers (both professional and aspiring) harness generative AI tools like ChatGPT and Google Bard? In this article, we’ll explore some of my favorite ways you can embrace this transformative new technology. For Professional Writers (And Anyone Who Writes As Part Of Their Job)If your work involves creating any kind of content – including emails and internal communications – why not let generative AI help you draft or enhance that content? Some of the ways generative AI can assist writers in a professional context include: 1. Tapping into AI writing assistants. Today’s generative AI tools – including, but not limited to ChatGPT – can help you draft all sorts of professional content. This can span reports, emails, and other written content, but also visual content like graphs and images. 2. Getting grammar and style corrections. Generative AI can offer real-time suggestions for improving the grammatical accuracy and stylistic fluency of written content. 3. Plain-English explanations and text summaries. Need to quickly digest a lot of information and create an easy-to-understand summary? Then, generative AI is your friend. With the latest tools, you can break down complex topics into plain English explanations or condense lengthy content into bite-size descriptions.

Whether you want to translate your text into different languages or translate other texts as part of your research, generative AI can help. 5. Improving accessibility. Generative AI can be used to translate audio speech into written text, or vice-versa, to help people with disabilities create content or access your content. Generative AI As A Creative Writing ToolSome of the above uses will also appeal to creative writers, particularly when it comes to things like spelling and grammar. But what about the creative writing itself … surely that’s the sole domain of humans, right? Well, not anymore. Because generative AI tools can add tons of value for creative writers. Whether you’re an aspiring novelist, a poet, or whatever, here are some of the incredible things that generative AI can do for you: 6. Generating writing prompts. Writer’s block could be a thing of the past, given that generative AI can be used to create infinite prompts to help you put pen to paper. Even if you never suffer from writer’s block (lucky you), you can still build those creative muscles by asking a generative AI tool for, say, a daily writing prompt. 7. Coming up with unique story ideas. You can also ask a generative AI to come up with novel ideas to get you started on your next great story. 8. Drafting plotlines. If plot is something you struggle with (because many writers are more character- or -dialogue-driven than plot-driven), consider asking generative AI for help. You could, for example, provide a general idea and then ask the tool to build that out into a more detail list of plot points. 9. Structuring your story. This is something that a lot of writers struggle with – how best to turn a brilliant idea into a well-structured, well-paced story. Again, generative AI can help. You can, for instance, ask it to create a chapter-by-chapter outline. 10. Fleshing out your characters. This can be a fun way to dip into generative AI – asking it to flesh out the personality and backstory of a particular character or characters. This saves you some brain power and may bring fresh ideas that you wouldn’t otherwise have considered. 11. Building the world in which your story takes place. Some of the best books create incredibly vivid and immersive new worlds. However, building this from scratch can be time-consuming for authors. Generative AI can assist in the process by, for example, helping you outline the histories, geographies, and cultures of fictional settings. 12. Coming up with names. Naming characters and places can easily get a bit stale after a while. But with generative AI, you can generate infinite interesting names. All you have to do is ask. 13. Drafting whole narratives. Not that I’m necessarily recommending this, but generative AI can even be used to write entire books if the mood takes you. It’s certainly one way of creating a finished first draft! Remember, Generative AI Is A Tool…And like any tool, it’s all about how you use it. I’m not suggesting writers should abdicate all responsibility to generative AIs – rather, you should use them intelligently to make your work (or creative project) easier and better. Of course, this means carefully reviewing any output generated by the AI and, where appropriate, tweaking the resulting text to better suit your needs. In other words, outputs created by generative AIs like ChatGPT should be considered a first stab – not the final word.

3 compelling use cases for AI, according to creative leadsFor years, marketers have been integrating AI-powered products into nearly every aspect of their work , gaining critical insights and driving more conversions with improved campaign optimizations. More recently, the profusion of news surrounding generative AI has renewed the critical importance of the human in the driver’s seat, especially when it comes to building advertising creative. Commercial creative would not exist without the talent behind it, full stop. And just as marketers have been using AI-powered tools, creatives have been experimenting with AI in everything from ads that talk back to concept decks that sing. With responsive search ads (RSA) and responsive display ads (RDA), we’ve already seen the ability of AI to optimize thoughtfully crafted assets into the best-performing combinations of creative. We know that AI can scale asset production to serve the most relevant version of an ad across channels via Performance Max , App , and Video action campaigns. Now, to get a pulse on how interdisciplinary creative teams are already exploring AI, we asked agency leads across three regions how they use it. Here’s what they said. Novel use cases for AI tools1. interactive ads from voice activation to audiovisual journeys. During the 2019 holiday season, a team tasked with selling the Google Nest to Australian shoppers had a unique opportunity to let people test the product from the comfort of their own homes. “We wanted to bring the experience of Nest into the ad itself, so that was the moonshot then — essentially, quite a while back before generative AI was a thing,” said Tingyan Han, senior data strategy director, APAC at EssenceMediacom. “We needed to demonstrate the many ways in which Nest makes moments at home better.” There were many considerations when working with a speech-to-text API, from the UX to ad inventory and measurement … to testing whether local accents were recognizable. To do that, the team turned to a speech-to-text API co-authored by Google with the help of the Google Nest and Google Media Lab teams. “There were many considerations when working with a speech-to-text API, from the UX to ad inventory and measurement, all the way down to testing whether local accents were recognizable,” said Han. The ad would pause within the first few frames to allow the user time to opt in to the experience. When users said, “Hey Google, show me gingerbread house recipes,” it would do as told. The activation led to an increase in consideration to purchase. Vincent Tay, creative director, APAC at EssenceMediacom, says that’s because the interactivity served to demonstrate the benefits of the product itself. We must always remember to place the human truth at [our campaign’s] core. “While the thought of integrating new and shiny technology into every facet of our campaign can be alluring, we must always remember to place the human truth at its core,” said Tay, who partnered with a UX/UR designer alongside Han on the campaign. More recently, Publicis-owned Leo Burnett Australia used AI to build a talking car ; Leo Burnett Taiwan used another kind of AI to celebrate Lunar New Year with potato chip-inspired fortunes . “We have been using Google Colab regularly for early prototyping efforts involving up-and-coming AI algorithms,” said Laurent Thevenet, head of creative tech at Publicis covering APAC and MEA. “We are also starting to use Bard , as we like the fact that it is connected to the internet and can retrieve real-time information.” In addition to sending regular updates on emerging tech to its 4,000 creatives across the region, Publicis is also mentoring talent internally, sending mentees back to their respective agencies and teams with new knowledge. “Machines need operators and, for the creative industry, it means that creatives will partner with machines, directing them towards the desired output,” said Thevenet. “These creatives have to be hybrid talents able to think critically while having the ability to operate and connect these emerging AI systems with one another.” 2. Envisioning results — and selling that vision to clients“Imagine a concept store on the moon. What does that look like?” Ed Yeoman, creative director at London-based branding and design agency Human After All, has observed his team bringing AI into the ideation stage to collaborate on design fiction for this type of “wild-card idea.” “Some people use it to get verbal prompts around language and messaging, and some people use it to get visual prompts to help them kind of imagine something that doesn’t exist yet,” including events and event spaces, he said. Google’s announcement of the forthcoming addition of Adobe Firefly to Bard represents a commitment to ethical image generation. Gabriel Cheung, Global Executive Creative Director, TBWA\Chiat\Day New York, says AI-generated content can also challenge teams to push their thinking. “Because of the way AI works with existing information, we let AI-powered tools quickly generate the ‘first thought’ ideas. Our thinking is that if AI can generate the same idea, then we haven’t done our job well enough to come up with something new,” said Cheung. Google recently announced a new conversational experience in Google Ads and Search campaigns that can be used to enhance brainstorms, a use case Yeoman’s team found helpful. “[The prompting] part of the process … puts you in the role of the creative or strategic director,” said Yeoman. “Oftentimes, at that level, you’re helping to frame challenges for people to inspire them to do certain things. It’s the same with AI. You’re hoping to frame this challenge in a way which gives you an optimal output.” At the heart of our business are the principles of empathy and reason. We try and build those into everything. Meanwhile, Google’s announcement of the forthcoming addition of Adobe Firefly to Bard represents a commitment to ethical image generation. Firefly is trained on a catalog of hundreds of millions of licensed images in Adobe Stock. As private technology companies develop responsible AI and call for regulation , creative agencies are writing their own ethical guidelines. “We felt that there was a little bit of a lack of people talking about what it meant for humans,” said Yeoman. “At the heart of our business are the principles of empathy and reason. We try and build those into everything.” 3. Guiding concept iteration, strategy, and production at scaleEvery year, global creative agency Jellyfish Group invites its own technologists to a companywide hackathon. The participants invited to this year’s event in Paris received a new kind of challenge: design an AI-powered solution for improving the quality and performance of creative assets. The event brought 120 technologists across data, media, and creative together to address this critical business need. “The benefit is huge; it elevates everyone’s knowledge and experience, and that carries throughout the rest of the year,” said Sam Yates, chief solutions officer of creative technology at Jellyfish. AI is not just about ethics; it’s literally a business problem for us. If we’re not using AI the right way, it could lead to bias because of the training samples. “AI has developed so fast and there’s so much opportunity, but it’s also kind of a wild West scenario,” said Di Wu, VP of data science at Jellyfish Group. “People are just starting to think about regulation and what it means for us to adopt AI. We created a task force around it to basically say, AI is not just about ethics; it’s literally a business problem for us. If we’re not using AI the right way, it could lead to bias because of the training samples used [to train the hypothetical model].” Agencies will soon have access to more tools to create variations on their own work, ensuring ownability. Working within established partner networks is one way to ensure safety, added Yates. “We don’t want to stifle innovation in any way, but we do have to think about some of the risk mitigations that go with exploring new technologies,” he said. “Working closely with Google, for example, is a great opportunity for us to explore a tech stack in a safe and responsible way.” Even before the milestones of 2023, Google had partnered with Jellyfish to design a bespoke service powered by Google Cloud Platform’s Vision and Video APIs . “Optics” could decode which elements of an ad performed best according to a brand’s goals and best practices like the YouTube ABCDs . With advances in AI, such methodologies could eventually enable teams to distinguish emotional content across ads, or even the presence of humor, to shed light on which creative choices resonated most with their brands’ audiences. Once teams have finalized creative assets, they can get the most out of them using smart creative formats like RSAs and RDAs. Tools like Performance Max can help make sure the right ad reaches the right audience at the right time, optimized for their chosen channels and screens. Research shows that advertisers see 2X more conversions , on average, when adding an RDA to an ad group with a static display ad. From creative testing to storyboarding, AI-powered solutions have a pivotal role to play in the future of creative development. The role itself must be defined by the needs of real creative teams, and some of the most useful applications may be found unexpectedly. Through active exploration and experimentation with AI, we can discover more concrete ways of thinking about the guardrails we want to uphold and the benefits to creative professionals they unlock.

However, most prior work on human-AI collaboration in the creative writing domain has evaluated new systems with amateur writers, typically in contrived user studies of limited scope. In this work, we commissioned 13 professional, published writers from a diverse set of creative writing backgrounds to craft stories using Wordcraft, a text editor with built-in AI-powered writing assistance tools. Using interviews and participant journals, we discuss the potential of NLG to have significant impact in the creative writing domain–especially with respect to brainstorming, generation of story details, world-building, and research assistance. Experienced writers, more so than amateurs, typically have well-developed systems and methodologies for writing, as well as distinctive voices and target audiences. Our work highlights the challenges in building for these writers; NLG technologies struggle to preserve style and authorial voice, and they lack deep understanding of story contents. In order for AI-powered writing assistants to realize their full potential, it is essential that they take into account the diverse goals and expertise of human writers.

Gemma 2 vs Llama 3: Best Open-Source AI Model?
Gemma 2 vs Llama 3: Creative Writing Multilingual TestIn the next round, I tried to understand how well both models handle non-English languages. Since Google touts that Gemma 2 is very good at multilingual understanding, I pitted it against Meta’s Llama 3 model. I asked both models to translate a paragraph written in Hindi. And well, both Gemma 2 and Llama 3 performed exceptionally well.  Gemma 2 vs Llama 3: Reasoning Test Llama 3, on the other hand, has a strong reasoning foundation , most likely inferred from the coding dataset. Despite its small size — at least, in comparison to trillion-parameter models like GPT-4 — it showcases more than a decent level of intelligence. Finally, using more tokens to train the model indeed results in a stronger model. Follow User Instructions Gemma 2 vs Llama 3: Find the NeedleBoth Gemma 2 and Llama 3 have a context length of 8K tokens, so this test is quite an apple-to-apple comparison. I added a huge block of text, sourced directly from the book Pride and Prejudice, containing more than 17,000 characters and 3.8K tokens. As I always do, I placed a needle (a random statement) somewhere in the middle and asked both models to find it.  Hallucination Test I threw another (wrong) question to check the models’ factuality, but again, they didn’t hallucinate . By the way, I tested Llama 3 on HuggingChat as meta.ai browses the internet to find current information on relevant topics.

Add new comment  AI Detection Score MeaningWhat does the originality.ai ai detection score mean whether you’re a writer, editor, marketing agency, or website publisher, this article will help you understand and align your team on how to interpret an ai detection score..  What does the Originality.ai’s AI detector score mean? Learn what the score means and how to use the results. These are the questions we’ll answer:
Is the Score Accurate?
How Does Our AI Detector Work?
What is the AI Detection Score?Our AI detector provides a probability that a piece of content was AI or Original (human-generated). It returns a confidence score. 60% Original and 40% AI means the model thinks the content is Original (human-written) and is 60% confident in its prediction. This score DOES NOT mean that 60% of it was Original and 40% was AI-generated. If you wrote 100% of the copy yourself and you receive a 60% Original score that is not a false positive . Originality.ai’s AI detector has correctly predicted the content was human-generated with 60% confidence.  Yes, the detector has demonstrated accuracy in both internal tests and multiple 3rd party studies .
Is the Score Perfect?No, the tool does produce incorrect predictions. Incorrectly predicting content that was human generated as AI generated happens approximately 1% of the time. What if an AI Detector Thinks Something I Wrote was AI-Generated? This is called a False Positive.False positives are painful when they occur, and we are working hard to continually improve and release even better models that drive down our false positive rate further. A false positive occurs when an AI detector thinks something was AI-generated when in fact it was written by a human. We have a free Chrome extension to assist in transparently showing you the writing process that truly created it (whether human-written or AI-generated). We also have guidance on how to prevent and deal with false positives.
Which Model Should I Use?Originality.ai provides distinct models that are tuned to meet the needs of specific use cases. The AI detection models that are currently available include:
Read more about each model here Should Plagiarism Checking and AI Detection Be Treated the Same?The answer is no. A Plagiarism Checker provides hard proof that plagiarism occurred, while an AI Detector provides the probability that a piece of content was AI or human-generated. The same approach should not be taken with Plagiarism and AI detection. Our AI takes a more holistic and far more intensive approach to analyze an article to determine if it was AI-generated than anything else we have seen. Read our in-depth article, How Does AI Content Detection Work? , to learn more about our AI detection tool. Our AI was trained on an incredible number of the most popular LLMs including ChatGPT , Claude , and Llama, and is able to accurately identify patterns in AI content across an entire article. Our approach is a far more intensive/accurate way to look at an article than the free AI detection tools that rely on either…
What Part Is AI? Why Was My Articles Identified As AI?We appreciate the valid question, “Why was my article identified as AI?” In order to help answer that question, we provide sentence-level highlighting showing what parts the Originality AI Detector believes are more likely to be AI-generated. Note : The patterns that our AI picks up on cannot be translated into a simple list of ‘here are x reasons why your content is identified as AI-generated’.

Share this story:format(webp)/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/25521968/Affinity_six_month_free_trial.jpg "google creative writing ai") Design software developer Serif has launched a new six-month free trial for its Affinity creative suite, which is well regarded as being one of the few viable alternatives to Adobe’s professional design apps. The offer is available for Affinity Photo, Affinity Designer, and Affinity Publisher starting today on Mac, Windows PC, and iPad. Affinity uses a one-time purchase pricing model that has earned it a loyal fanbase among creatives who are sick of paying for recurring subscriptions. Prices start at $69.99 for Affinity’s individual desktop apps or $164.99 for the entire suite, with a separate deal currently offering customers 50 percent off all perpetual licenses. This discount, alongside the six-month free trial, is potentially geared at soothing concerns that Affinity would change its pricing model after being acquired by Canva earlier this year . “We’re saying ‘try everything and pay nothing’ because we understand making a change can be a big step, particularly for busy professionals,” said Affinity CEO Ashley Hewson. “Anyone who takes the trial is under absolutely no obligation to buy.” In a Decoder interview published today, Canva CEO Melanie Perkins declined to describe its offering as a full alternative to Adobe’s Creative Cloud. However, she said the design market “has been a little bit of a one-horse race, and I don’t think that works out well for anyone...I think that being able to have another alternative in the market for professional designers benefits everyone.” Samsung’s Galaxy Ring could be the one ring to rule an ecosystemMicrosoft is hiking the price of xbox game pass ultimate and launching a new ‘standard’ tier, etsy loses its ‘handmade’ and ‘vintage’ labels as it takes on temu and amazon, samsung galaxy watch ultra hands-on: ultra déjà vu, the galaxy z fold 6 and flip 6 come with minor updates and higher prices.
