How is Cityline Websites using AI?
Artificial intelligence. Or AI as everyone calls it now. What used to be part of science fiction movies is now becoming part of our daily lives. Will it affect you and me in a significant way? Absolutely, yes! AI is not something we can ignore. AI is something that we need to embrace. AI is a tool that is being used to make us more efficient and allow us to do more than we can do without it. Just like the introduction of the home computer, AI will transform our lives as we know them.
From image generation, to chat bots, to blogging, to video dubbing, AI has infiltrated the website and marketing world in a big way. But, as mentioned above, we see AI as an opportunity to do more for our clients, for less money.
Below is how Cityline Websites is adopting AI to become more efficient.
AI in Content Writing
Both Google and Bing have come out and said that using AI to write content is acceptable. BUT… The content needs to be useful and have some uniqueness to it. Basically, this means that there needs to be some sort of human input to an AI-written article.
Website pages
Currently (October 2025), Cityline Websites uses a combination of discussions with the client, plus AI for research. At this point, the page content is written by hand.
Blog Articles
Some of our articles are 100% hand-written and other articles are a combination of AI-written with writer polishing/editing to make the content useful for Google and AI chats.
AI in Website Design
The purpose of using AI in website designs is to help us come up with different ideas, more ideas, quicker. The eventual goal is to be able to give the client a few design options without spending a ton of time.
Using AI in design is something we are just getting into. Right now, we don’t feel AI is at a point where we can use an entirely AI-generated website design. So we are using AI to come up with some design ideas at this point. We’ll see where this goes.
AI For Images
Cityline uses AI to edit client-supplied images plus create some images from scratch. Using AI to clean backgrounds, remove labels, or extend photos now only takes a few clicks of the mouse, where before it could take 30 minutes+ for a simple edit. We can now generate images based on a prompt. These images are unique to the internet, so they can rank with the search engines. There are no copyright concerns with AI-generated images.
AI For Videos
Creating videos using AI is revolutionizing the video market. We can now create AI videos using an avatar or client, in any language, in any accent, using text prompts. If we are to use the client, we need to film them first and get permission, of course. But the results are fantastic.
Website Programming
Our programmers at Cityline are now able to use AI to check the integrity of the code they produce. In some instances, AI is able to actually generate the code for our website framework. The result is saving time and producing a cleaner, more efficiently running website. Eventually, we hope to have an AI program for large parts of our custom website design for our clients. That’s at least a couple of years away, though.
AIO – Not Just SEO
It’s no longer SEO (Search Engine Optimization). It’s now also AIO (Artificial Intelligence Optimization) / GEO (Generative Engine Optimization). Our marketing team is constantly reading articles about how to best show up in both Google and the different AI platforms. Please refer to our AI articles for more information on what we are doing.
Summary
So ya, AI is here to stay. You can work with it to create more beautiful things, or you can bury your head in the sand and hope it goes away. We have chosen to embrace the technology to make our product for you and do it in a more efficient way.
