About the Book Packed with ready-to-use prompts! A book to learn the secrets of streamlining PR operations by mastering generative AI.

Modern PR professionals are busier than ever, juggling more tasks than at any time in the past.

Traditionally, the core of the job was creating press releases, sending them to the media, and handling inquiries from reporters. Today, however, the scope of the role has expanded dramatically to include daily social media updates, writing articles for owned media, producing video content, collaborating with influencers, crisis management, internal communications, recruitment PR, and IR. Furthermore, in small organizations, it is not uncommon for the PR role to be handled by a single person or someone balancing it with duties in other departments. Handling such a wide range of tasks with limited personnel is nearly impossible, and it is a pressing concern for many PR professionals.

Additionally, there is a demand for speed in information dissemination. Social media expects instant reactions, news sites are updated throughout the night, and trends shift in the blink of an eye. The traditional approach of "taking time to create something good" is no longer sufficient to keep up with the times.

However, starting with the release of ChatGPT in November 2022, the emergence and development of generative AI have significantly impacted business. A major gap in productivity and the quality of output is emerging between those who can master generative AI as a powerful assistant in their daily work and those who cannot. The world of PR is no exception, and this trend will only continue to permeate the industry in the future.

This book explains practical ways to utilize generative AI for everyone involved in PR. We have kept difficult technical explanations to a minimum, focusing on what you can use in your work starting tomorrow. With the motto "AI is a tool, and humans are the ones who use it," we have condensed the know-how needed to improve the quality of PR practice. We hope this book makes your work more efficient, more creative, and more enjoyable.
