Why I Wrote "How to Edit Generative AI Content" Book- Author Shanu Shah

In the fast-paced world of digital marketing, adaptability and innovation are the

keys to success. For me, writing and content creation have always been my

true passions, driving me to explore new avenues and push the boundaries of

creativity. As the Centre Head of a thriving organization, I found myself deeply

entrenched in the digital marketing strategy; crafting engaging content for

social media, writing essays and ebooks and crafting monthly social media

calendars became part of my portfolio. Yet a lingering dissatisfaction gnawed

at my soul. I yearned for something more, a deeper connection to my craft as a

content strategist.






I left my full-time well paying job to pursue my passion. In the midst of this

transition, the landscape of content creation was undergoing a seismic shift

with the rise of Generative AI technology. Rejections piled up on my desk.

However, despite my best efforts, I encountered a disheartening reality – the job

market was skeptical of my sudden pivot from traditional roles to content

creation in the era of AI.



Rejection after rejection left me feeling devastated and miserable. But amidst

the despair, I refused to succumb to defeat. Determined to prove myself, I

immersed myself in the intricacies of Generative AI technology.



Through relentless experimentation with prompts and responses and its

analysis, I uncovered the nuances and flaws inherent in AI-generated content.

To comprehend the technology better I created a blog featuring unedited

AI-generated content, showcasing the raw potential and inherent challenges of

this emerging technology.



Day after day, I poured countless hours into generating different forms of

content using Gen AI, meticulously dissecting each response generated by the

AI algorithms. It was a labor of love and frustration, as I painstakingly curated

my findings into a comprehensive understanding of the AI generation process.

Months of dedication culminated in a pivotal moment – the creation of "How to

Edit Generative AI Content." But I deleted 80% of the content during the first edit. I was too scared to experience another failure and determined to make

this book acceptable in the wide world.


With my digital marketing degree from MICA and content marketing

certification from Hubspot, I tried to infuse the book with a wealth of insights

and practical techniques for creating original and engaging content using

generative AI. I crafted 16 editing rubrics that will make the Generative AI

content original and more engaging.


I was overjoyed to witness its reception as a bestseller, and equally humbled

when the readers slid into my DM with words full of praise and support.

Today, as I continue to pursue my passion through my books and my talk

show, Prose Parley, I am reminded of the power of perseverance and the

transformative potential of embracing change. My journey from being pulled

down by technological advancement to success serves as a testament to the

resilience of the human spirit and the boundless possibilities that await those

who dare to chase their dreams.
