Adding author personas

An author persona allows you to apply a preset tone and style to the responses that your AI client generates for the Create with AI feature. Author personas index files that you upload, and then use those files to learn the writing tone and style so they can be used in generated text. You can create a default persona as well as additional personas. After creating an author persona, you can select it when generating AI content on an asset.

To create an author persona:

1. Click menu > Admin > Sites & Settings.
2. In the Sites widget, select the site for which you want to configure this setting, or select Global to configure this setting for all sites.
3. Under the Integrations tab, expand AI.
4. Under Default Author Persona, do the following:
   
   1. Select the field and click Create New.
   2. In the Name field, enter a name for the author persona.
   3. Under Profile, select one of the following options:
      
      • AI Generated—AI generates the persona by referencing assets that you select for it. After selecting this option, do the following:
        
        1. Under Referenced Content, click add_circle_outline Add Item and search for an existing asset for AI to reference to generate the AI persona. You may select up to five assets.
        2. Writing Style Profile is a read-only field. After saving the author persona, Brightspot uses the AI client you select in step 6c to generate a summary of the author persona to describe its tone and style.
        3. Under Create with AI Client, select the AI client you want to use to generate the author persona.
      • Manual—The user generates the persona by entering a description that will inform the AI client's tone and style. After selecting this option, do the following:
        
        • Under Writing Style Prompt, enter a description of the persona you want. Add as much detail as possible (for example, "I want my persona to sound like a thought leader in the content management space").
5. (Optional) Under Other Author Personas, follow steps 4a–4c to create an additional author persona that you can select when generating AI content in an asset.
6. Click Save.

To use an author persona:

1. Search for and open the asset on the content edit page, or create a new one.
2. Click to open the Create with AI pop-up.
3. In the author persona selection field, retain the default author persona, select a different persona, or remove the persona.
