Outcome

Harmful articles were swiftly suppressed in only three months for two countries; the rest were pushed down six months later. Importantly, they now had an extremely positive AI presence when searched on ChatGPT within months.

AI Reputation Management Options and Approaches

Build a Presence on ChatGPT

As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly integral to online interactions, establishing a genuine and effective presence on platforms like ChatGPT is vital. It’s crucial to help individuals and businesses focus on optimizing interactions and responses in ChatGPT, ensuring they accurately represent the you personality, values, and objectives. This involves fine-tuning the way ChatGPT interprets and presents information, enhancing the authenticity of AI-generated conversations.

Suppress & Repair Negative AI Answers

Suppress negative AI-generated content and replace it with accurate, positive content. This process is not just about removing the negative but also promoting the true and the positive.

Remove False AI-Generated Imagery

Cyberporn, generated photos, and deep-fake videos are growing exponentially, and can cause extreme damage. Imagery designed to hurt has no part being online or in AI-answers, so we try to remove or suppress negative content. While these sophisticated algorithms are groundbreaking, they can sometimes produce false or misleading visual content too.

We find and address unflattering, misrepresented, or contextually incorrect imagery/video generated from DALL-E, Midjourney, etc., and attempt to replace it with work that accurately represents you and your business. This service is not only about correcting errors but is a commitment to upholding the integrity and authenticity of our clients’ digital presence in the new era where this can be easily manipulated.

Improve Poor AI-Generated Content

Poorly made content, inaccurate text, and incorrect answers can lead to unintended reputation damage. We detect errors or misrepresentations and improve accuracy in AI and online search results as well as develop an authentic tone that truly reflects your intent and voice.

Develop Personalized AI Tools

Personalized AI tools connect clients in new ways as well as help build strong AI and online reputations. Developing a customized system (Generative Pre-trained Transformer or GPT) for your business is now possible, and can be extremely helpful. This tool helps “remember” your bio, style, background, pitches, etc., which interacts with clients in natural ways and to efficiently shares information about you. It’s an invaluable asset to build an AI-focused reputation, correct misinformation, and construct a positive online presence.
