The Salesforce platform has been conducting research in the business and marketing world for several years. According to that study, since 2018, there has been a more than 180% increase in the use of artificial intelligence in the workplace. This proves the effectiveness of using modern technology in business and marketing. As for future projections, International Data Corporation has conducted its own research and found that investment in neural networks and AI will reach $110 billion by 2024.

Have you also been hearing about the introduction of artificial intelligence from every direction lately?

Today, most creative professionals and production workers are already nervously looking for a new specialization. We propose to combine our efforts with modern technologies to create quality content. Read our selection of modern tools based on artificial intelligence that will help you in the affiliate sphere for making creatives or articles. Most of them are free, but for a limited time.

What is AI and how to use it?

Neural networks are a collection of intelligent algorithms programmed to perform certain functions and run independently. Such technologies have long been used in many industries, such as medicine, military development, or machine production. And recently there has been increasing mention of using neural networks in the digital sphere: marketing, design, and even affiliate segment. Microsoft and Google are already busy announcing the release of custom neural networks to keep the market competitive in innovation. 

The good thing about neural networks is that they are constantly learning, improving, and correcting the mistakes of their past actions, making performance better and better. Also, the most obvious benefit of using AI is that it saves resources that you can dedicate to more complex and important tasks. They really can save you time, effort, or money. However, it’s still not entirely clear how true the pretty advertisements and loud headlines about how AI replaces people are.

Selection of AI tools for content creation

While this field is developing, it’s time to check whether AI algorithms really that perfect and rosy in practice. We have so far avoided delegating to neural networks’ algorithms important processes like analytics, campaign launch automation, lead generation, etc. Still, it’s a great idea to use technologies in fields you can check and control from start to finish: creatives and copywriting. Of course, many neural network-generated texts sound like incoherent baby talk, and neural images are often ugly, with extra fingers or a frightening look. That’s why we’ve tested some AI services to come up with a list of ones that can really help you and us in our work.

Visual tools

The easiest way to integrate neural networks into an affiliate’s work would be to entrust algorithms to create visual creatives. This can be a fully drawn illustration for advertising or a supporting tool for a designer at some stages of the work.

Midjorney

Free generated pictures for your creatives. It is a neural network that creates unique images, based on text written by the user. The service is considered one of the best on the market and has a fairly simple, straightforward interface. Midjourney is suitable for solo affiliate writers or affiliate teams who want to make unique creatives to promote an online advertising campaign.

Copywriting tools

It’s probably no secret that textual content is needed in any type of advertising: articles, display ads, social media posts, etc. Artificial intelligence has not yet learned how to fully mimic human written language, and it is likely that AI-generated texts will need editing. Nevertheless, their help will greatly reduce your time working on content.

Rytr.me

It is a great AI tool for affiliate marketing. Powered by state-of-the-art language AI to generate unique, original content for almost any vertical. You get high-quality content, in just a few seconds. The free plan offers quite a lot of features, but severely limits the number of characters (10k per month).

Final thoughts

Optimizing tasks competently is the goal of every affiliate. We are still wary of asking AI to do the work completely, but it is possible to delegate some time-consuming things. There are only a few totally free services, but the rest of them offer a free trial period.
