Straight answers about where AI fits into Craft Boom and where a person takes over.
Is AI used on Craft Boom?
Yes. AI tools help write and check every new post, and saying so plainly beats leaving readers to guess.
What does the AI actually do?
It has 3 jobs here:
- One AI tool writes the first draft, working only from research notes gathered from the top Google results for the topic.
- A second AI tool checks that draft against the same notes and flags mismatches, thin spots and claims with no source.
- An AI image tool makes the illustrations that are not credited to a social media account.
AI drafts and checks. A person picks every topic, sets every title and reads every post before it goes live.
What stays in human hands?
Choosing the topic, reading the search results, building the outline and writing the title and description all happen before any AI is involved. After the drafts, every flagged point is checked by hand, anything without a source is removed, and the full post gets a final read before publishing. The Editorial Guidelines walk through each step.
Are the pictures real photos?
Most of them were shared on social media and carry a 📷 credit to their owner. The others are AI illustrations showing an idea. They are never labeled as photographs of a real home.
Found something wrong?
Write to [email protected]. The point gets checked against the original research and the post is fixed.
Will this change?
If the way AI is used on Craft Boom changes, this page will be updated to say so.
