Artificial Intelligence (AI) is already leading profound change today, transforming the way we work. AI has the potential to take your business to the next level and significantly accelerate what you can achieve as a self-employed and small business.
So at Jimdo, we're committed to helping our customers responsibly leverage this rapidly changing technology landscape. We believe AI can empower you to achieve what you couldn't on your own.
That's why we're excited to help self-employed individuals and micro-businesses reach their full potential with our new "AI Text Generator". From now on, you'll be able to use Jimdo's built-in ChatGPT feature of OpenAI to create website texts in seconds that are tailored to your exact situation and needs.
What is Generative AI?
Generative AI describes algorithms that generate new output based on a user's input. This can include text, images, recordings, videos, and various other forms of media.
In most cases, these systems work by pulling information from a vast database with which they were initially populated with and rearranging that information to produce an entirely new, often highly creative, output based on the user's query at hand. Generative AI thus falls into the broad area of machine learning, which involves processing large amounts of data in image or text form to create content.
How can you use Generative AI on Jimdo to improve your content?
If you're unsure about what to write about your business or yourself on your website, or if you just want to improve existing text, you can now use our new AI Text Generator. Just click "Change Text" on the text block of your website you want to change, fill out the questionnaire and new text options will be created that match your specific needs. Choose the text you like best and improve the quality of your texts in seconds!
