Next up we’re going to test out beehiiv’s AI writing tool. Tomorrow we’ll get into depth with the actual content - for now I want you to see the ease with which we can generate quality content.

If you aren’t using beehiiv this will also work in ChatGPT. You’ll just need to copy/paste into your newsletter platform of choice.

If in beehiiv create a draft of a newsletter. Don’t worry, we’ll delete it. Once in the draft just type /ai to bring up the AI writer or tap the plus symbol then select AI Writer.

You’ll see something like this:

In settings you can tell it how many paragraphs to create and set the language and the tone of voice.

Here’s how to play around and experiment with the tool:

  • Start by choosing a specific topic or question you want the AI to write about.

  • Use clear and concise instructions to guide the AI in the desired direction.

  • Experiment with different writing styles, tones, or perspectives to see how the AI adapts.

  • Play around with the length of the input prompt to see how it affects the output.

  • Try asking the AI to generate a story, poem, or even a joke for some fun and creative results.

  • Experiment with different genres or themes to see how the AI can generate content tailored to specific needs.

  • Use the AI as a brainstorming tool by asking it to generate ideas or provide insights on a particular subject.

  • Explore the AI's capabilities by asking it to write in different languages or imitate famous authors.

  • Collaborate with the AI by providing partial sentences and letting it complete them, creating a unique blend of human-AI writing.

Useful list? Great: beehiiv’s AI generated all of that. I hardly lifted a finger.

Also, this same tool can be used to rewrite content that you write yourself - to make it shorter, longer, simpler etc. It’s a very powerful tool.

For now just test it out. We’ll be going into depth in Parts 3 and 4.
