Hey BHW,

After the recent Google updates, I am seeing mixed results with AI content. It seems like pure, unedited AI content (like direct ChatGPT copy-paste) is getting de-indexed or penalized much faster now.

What is your experience right now? Are you guys still ranking with raw AI content, or has human-editing become 100% mandatory to survive in 2026? Would love to hear your thoughts!

AI content have definitely taken a toll.

Exactly! It has been pretty brutal lately. How are you adapting to this shift? Are you completely moving away from AI for your money sites, or just focusing more on heavy human editing and adding real value to the drafts?
 
I haven't seen much difference in terms of traffic on my website. But again its just been 2months, so can't be sure how it impacts in the long run
 
Without modification it usually reads like AI and is easy to spot.

But you can have another worker change that and first one finished writing.
 
Google now prioritizes information gain and original data over simple word count. Pure AI content often lacks the unique insights needed to rank long-term in 2026. You need at least some human editing to add real-world experience and avoid being flagged as unhelpful. :cool:

It may still exist, but only in small numbers most will likely be affected in terms of rankings.

Google has made AI content useless. Thks is because everyone was just spamming with it.
 
If it reads like the same thing that's everywhere, it just doesnt stick anymore. some pages drop even without penalties, just quietly deindexed. Raw AI copy paste is getting slapped pretty quick now. These days I at least mess with it a bit before posting. switch things up, add something real, break the pattern.
