I think almost everyone who is active on the Internet uses AI to some extent, whether they realize it or not.
Well, I thought, let's see what ChatGPt says about how much my blog uses AI. Here is precisely what it wrote:
The blog at RobertaHill.com appears to use AI minimally in the creation of written content and images. The primary focus is on personal stories and curated experiences shared by Roberta herself. AI may assist in optimizing visuals or enhancing stock images, but the blog's voice and imagery remain largely human-driven, emphasizing authenticity in storytelling and visuals over automated content creation. You can explore more details on the blog itself at RobertaHill.com.
So yes, I do use AI, But here’s how:
- Rather than trying to remember or research specific details and content about a place I visit or its historical context, I find that AI and ChatGPT are excellent. However, I would like to verify all the information.
- ChatGPT is excellent at creating comparison charts based on the collected information. This saves me hours.
- Depending on the type of blog post, a few could have up to 60% of AI-generated facts and data. Generally speaking, it’s about 40% at most and negligible, if any, when talking about personal memories and experiences.
Whenever I use AI-generated content, I always qualify it with my own experience. All recommendations, for example, are personal.

Here’s how I don’t use it.
- I’m sure this will change, but today, AI is useless for creating itineraries.
- I do not try to make any image meant to deceive you as authentic. All images that I have personally taken have my watermark on it. This represents about 80% of the images. About 15% Are in the public domain. I probably purchased the rights to use about 3%, which is 2% that are AI-generated.
Disclosure:
I recently set up a podcast to gauge interest. It has taken my content and generated this podcast 90% through AI. If I determine interest, I will switch to personal interviews with others in the New Year.
