Our guidance on using LLMs (for technical writing)

Ritza Handbook provides guidelines on using GPT and GenAI models for writing purposes. While writers are encouraged to utilize these models for learning new technology or technical steps, the handbook emphasizes that GPT-generated text should not be used in published articles. The reasons include the noticeable stylistic differences between human and GPT writing, the increased editing and QA burden, and the risk of relying on GPT for content creation. The handbook suggests that GPT can be beneficial for creating code samples, overcoming writer's block, understanding concepts before explaining them, formatting text, and providing review suggestions. However, it warns against using GPT-generated text as it may not add value for readers who actively use GPT themselves and could potentially impact search engine rankings. The focus remains on creating original content that adds unique value to the audience.
