Using AI Assistant in a Rise Course Template
Hi All, Has anyone established if you can use the AI Assistant as part of pre-developed course template. I can see that you can use it within lessons themselves, so what I'm looking for is a way wh...
NeilForrest-ea7 (and everyone else). Good questions.
First, let me clear up some confusion. The pre-release videos were based on earlier designs and some of what was shown has changed. This often happens with software development. We apologize for any confusion from the previous demos.
Looking at the released features, I recorded a demo where I walked through some source content and how I'd get started to build out the course. I start with an old OSHA ladder safety PowerPoint file and I changed all reference of ladder to zizbo to show that the AI is pulling from the PPT file and not generic ladder information.

Once you walk through the initial process with AI, you can go into a lesson and only work from source content to build all sorts of blocks. In my demo you'll see how easy it is.
A couple of other considerations:
- If you have imagery and whatnot in PPT, the AI won't extract those. However, I show how to quickly access all of the PPT media which will make it easy for you to insert into your course.
- You are the owner of the authoring process and can make the content anything you want. You can make it as instructionally sound as you want and add any objectives you need. The AI truly is only assisting the process and I think speeding up a lot of the block creation.
Also, check out some of the tutorials and videos we have in training to see what's there and how the features work. There's even a hands-on practice video.
Hi Tom,
Thanks for jumping in to provide your insights. The video seems useful, so I'll give that a try on an upcoming project and go from there 👍
I understand your comments around changes during software development, but as some feedback for Articulate, there was such a gap in communication between that initial video being shown and what has actually been released, you can see why some members of the community might feel a little frustrated. It's an MVP, that will naturally evolve and improve over time, but the comms and roll out could have been handled a lot better, in my personal opinion.
Your demo certainly gives a more accurate representation of how it can be used, so that's something I can draw on at least as part of the free trial, so thank you.
