Artificial intelligence (AI) lets you manage WordPress in many ways, including generating AI content, creating images, improving SEO, and more.
In this article, we'll learn how to use AI with WordPress using plugins. Let's get started.
There are many ways you can use AI with WordPress. You can use WordPress AI plugins like ShortPixel to carry out specific tasks like creating/optimizing images. Alternatively, you can use Uncanny Automator to use AI in WordPress creatively.
Uncanny Automator lets you integrate OpenAI such as Ada, Babbage, Davinci, etc., enabling you to create an AI-powered workflow for different tasks such as:
Furthermore, it works with the most popular WordPress plugins, including WPForms, MemberPress, AffiliateWP, etc.
To install Uncanny Automator, follow this guide, and to connect to OpenAI, use this guide.
Now, let's discuss the different use cases and the AI tools/plugins you need to carry them out.
Using generative AI, you can write or improve content.
Plenty of tools let you create content, such as Jasper and ChatGPT. However, the challenge is to make them work directly from WordPress.
To overcome this, I recommend using AI Engine, which lets you use OpenAI directly within WordPress. Once installed and connected (through the Open AI API key), you can create blog content, optimize SEO, and improve the content's grammar without leaving WordPress.
Alternatively, you can also opt for:
You can use GenAI tools like DALL-E 2 to generate and optimize images, such as content generation.
If you're new to this, I suggest directly visiting the DALL-E 2 site and generating images there.
However, if you want to integrate DALL-E 2 in WordPress, use Uncanny Automator, as it lets you create workflows directly in WordPress.
If you need help with WordPress SEO, you can try AIOSEO (All in One SEO) and Rank Math AI plugins. With AIOSEO, you can generate titles and meta descriptions. Rank Math, on the other hand, offers a complete package that you can use to generate SEO content, links, headings, and links. Rank Math's AI also lets you improve the content by suggesting additional keywords and providing dynamic optimization recommendations.
Both these tools are free to install. However, if you want to use the AI features, you must buy credits (each action consumes one credit).
You can also use AI to help you design and build a WordPress site.
One such plugin is Elementor AI, an AI-powered tool for Elementor Builder that lets you do WordPress site design and building.
With Elementor AI, you can generate container layouts using the desired design, all using prompts. And, if you are new to prompts, you can use its "Enhance Prompt" feature that offers suggestions to provide better input to get the desired output. Additionally, I like its leverage prompt history as it records your decision-making.
Some other useful Elementor AI features include:
Alternatively, you can use:
AI chatbots are becoming more human-like, allowing you to use them to improve visitors' real-time interactions.
You can use WordPress AI plugins such as Chatbase to create a customizable chatbot. It can handle pre-trained data, file types, text, and content from specific URLs. It also learns over time by interacting with customers. However, it is an AI-focused tool, so you cannot add human interactivity.
If you want a mix of AI and human support, ChatBot is what you need to use. I also suggest checking out AI ChatBot by QuantumCloud and Tidio, as they offer excellent AI-powered chatbots for your WordPress site.
Another way you can use AI to improve web forms on your WordPress site is by predicting user input, improving form interactions, and making them personalized based on individual preferences.
Weglot also ensures that Google indexes your newly generated translated post/page.
WordPress with AI opens up endless possibilities. Apart from the mentioned use cases, you can also use AI to help block WordPress comment spam, generate product descriptions/ad copy, or create event summaries. Just pick the right WordPress AI plugin, and you're good to go.
However, If you want more flexibility and control, you need Uncanny Automator. It is completely customizable, offering multiple combinations of steps enabling you to perform diverse tasks such as sentiment analysis, automating customer support, drafting emails, etc.
