Introducing Jetpack AI Assistant in WordPress.com

Your rocketship to more powerful content creation.

June 6, 2023

Automattic

Imagine being able to quickly generate all types of content—headlines, entire posts, even translations—with the click of a button. Imagine significantly reducing your effort and time spent staring at a blank screen. 

Say hello to Jetpack AI Assistant. 

Jetpack AI Assistant is seamlessly integrated as a block within the WordPress.com editor. (If your WordPress site is hosted elsewhere, the AI Assistant is also available through the Jetpack plugin.) This powerful new tool is still in the experimental phase, but here’s just a sampling of what it can already help you do. 

5 ways you can make writing a breeze with Jetpack AI Assistant 

Create customized content

Jetpack AI Assistant utilizes a conversational system so that you can “chat” with it in natural language. Enter a prompt, such as “Write a list of Tokyo’s must-visit destinations,” and watch as the Assistant crafts an engaging piece of content. Compelling blog posts, detailed pages, structured lists, and comprehensive tables can be created in seconds.

Perfect your spelling and grammar on the fly

Ensure your content always reflects professional standards with Jetpack AI Assistant’s spelling and grammar correction features.

Adjust your tone to match your audience 

Whether you’re aiming for formal or conversational, Jetpack AI Assistant can adjust the tone of your content to your goals and audience makeup. 

Find that perfect creative title

Struggling to find a good title that will really capture your audience’s attention? It can be the hardest part of writing a post! Jetpack AI Assistant has you covered by reading the text and then creating suitable and compelling headlines.

Translate your writing with a single click

The Jetpack AI Assistant can translate your text into numerous languages, allowing you to effortlessly reach across locales and cultures. 

And that’s just the start of what Jetpack AI Assistant can do.

Can this really be free? 

Yes, it can! For a limited time, Jetpack AI Assistant is free to use for all WordPress.com customers. 

Activate the block with the Inserter or the “/” command shortcut. (If you didn’t know, here’s a fun tip: Hit the “/” button while in the post or page editor and type the name of the block you’re looking for. In this case, it would be “AI.”) 

Your rocketship to seamless content creation  

This is just the beginning! We’re working to expand Jetpack AI Assistant’s capabilities, so stay tuned for even more exciting features in the coming weeks.

Try the AI Assistant today and discover an even more streamlined creative process in WordPress.com.

    In this world we inhabit, surely what we need is more drivel. Not even from our own lackluster habits, but a machine. Why bother to write, why bother to read? Learn your language, learn to think – how about that?

    I cant find the AI using the app from which i do all my writing. It does not show as a block option.

      The AI block is not in the app currently, but this may change over time. For now you can use the browser on your mobile device (instead of the app) to log in to WordPress.com. The browser-based editor will have all blocks available. Thanks!

    l experimented with AI, I abandoned it – not because it was no good but in the WP ecosystem I reckon it’s the human motivation and execution that counts.
    Lots of issues around AI other than this, ethics being critical. All AI assisted or written works deserve ‘author acknowledgement’.

    What if you use the Classic Editor not Blocks?

    • Jerry B Jun 7th at 6:49 pm

      At this time there is no option to add the AI Assistant within the Classic Editor, since you need the ability to insert blocks into your page/post to be able to use it.

    re: “Imagine being able to quickly generate all types of content—headlines, entire posts, even translations—with the click of a button. Imagine significantly reducing your effort and time spent staring at a blank screen.” [emphasis added]

    Dearest WordPress,

    Imagine being a hard-working artist and writer who generates her own content.

    Imagine that you receive an invitation to skip all that and post work that is cribbed from uncredited sources.

    Note that artificial “intelligence” strips away any possibility of attribution for the work of countless other hard-working people – artists, writers, photographers, dreamers, thinkers – who have dedicated their heart and soul to their content online.

    Know for sure that this blogger who started with your platform in 2010 is wondering whether anyone at WordPress is thinking seriously about the implications of introducing this “assistant” or just jumping headlong onto the proverbial bandwagon.

    Technology is getting out of control, what’s the point of being a writer or having a blog or website if you aren’t the one doing the writing… are we trying to eliminate humans? Sure looks like it… ________________________________

        Thanks for your reply. ☺️
        I should have asked you more clearly. For now we can ask AI only in English? Can I ask AI in Japanese in first place?
        I read other blogs in their language. Mostly they are English or Spanish because
        I didn’t set my WordPress options as automatic translation for now. I guess the automatic translation setting for blogs costs, doesn’t it?

        I am a new user since this March. And I really don’t get the whole system yet.

        Thanks.

          >For now we can ask AI only in English? Can I ask AI in Japanese in first place?

          Yes, you should be able to. I don’t know Japanese to test that, but a colleague who speaks Portuguese tried in their language and got the output in the same language. Give it a try!

          >I didn’t set my WordPress options as automatic translation for now. I guess the automatic translation setting for blogs costs, doesn’t it?

          I’m not clear what you mean by “automatic translation” – that isn’t an option for sites here whether they’re free or paid. Can you let us know where you saw that so we can better advise?

    While I appreciate WordPress coming up with new things to make the site management and writing experience more awesome, I find the Jetpack AI Assist tragic. It takes away all my creativity. Or maybe I’m just naive and a lot of what I read online has been created by AI. Still, I appreciate WP being innovative but I won’t be using this new feature.

    Wow! I have just tried it and it is really amazing! I have 95 draft posts that needed editing and optimizing since a long time but found it too overwhelming so much I stopped writing! With just few clicks I finally was able to edit a few, correct spelling and grammar, find a much better title than mine, and make the post much more interesting to read. I think it is a great tool for optimizing our own posts.
