It’s always good to experience a career “first”. This week I was awarded a “Human Writer Certificate” after my articles were analysed and found to have a unique fingerprint. With an increasing number of writers using AI technology, it feels valuable to have the evidence that I don’t.
Nonetheless, I am very aware that my job is ripe for disruption.
Last week, the AI chip giant Nvidia briefly surpassed Microsoft to become the world’s most valuable company. But for most people, I suspect, the game changer will come later this year, when Apple rolls out its AI tech on your phone. The ability to use AI to “write, express yourself and get things done effortlessly” will make it much more accessible and perhaps less scary — if it’s any good, of course.
