# Google’s Take on Generative AI Content for Your Website

## 1. Use AI Content Carefully — Don’t Just Scale Up

- Generative AI is great for **research** and **structuring original content**.
- But creating lots of pages automatically **without adding real value** can violate Google’s spam policies on **scaled content abuse**.
- Make sure AI content follows **Search Essentials** and **spam policies** to avoid penalties.

## 2. Focus on Accuracy, Quality & Relevance

- Whether AI-generated or human-written, your content must be:

  - Accurate
  - High quality
  - Relevant to users’ needs
- This applies to metadata too (titles, meta descriptions, image alt text).
- Use proper **structured data** markup, follow Google’s guidelines, and validate it to be eligible for rich search features.

## 3. Be Transparent with Users

- If you use AI-generated content, consider telling your audience **how the content was created** in a way that makes sense for them.
- This can include background info on the AI use or metadata for AI-generated images or product details.

## 4. Special Notes for E-commerce Sites

- Google Merchant Center requires:

  - AI-generated images to include **IPTC DigitalSourceType TrainedAlgorithmicMedia** metadata.
  - AI-generated product data (titles, descriptions) must be **separately labeled** as AI-generated.

**Bottom line:** Use generative AI as a tool — **add your expertise, context, and value** to your content. Avoid flooding your site with thin, repetitive, or automatically generated pages that don’t help users.
