I know many of you are feeling anxious about AI potentially replacing writers of both fiction and nonfiction. In this video, I show you what AI can and can’t do, but more importantly, I share why our humanity is actually our greatest competitive advantage against the bots.
Hello, Jane Cleland here.
The question is, I’m scared about artificial intelligence replacing me. Should I be. It is a fair question and in this rapidly changing environment, I think it is reasonable to consider what AI can do and what it can’t. What it can do is be derivative, right? It’s based on what it’s been trained to do and know, and even generative AI is dependent on what it has been taught.
Now, I do think AI is going to continue to improve and get better as time goes on. So I don’t want to whitewash the situation. But I do want to reassure you that there is one thing that we have that means we can beat the bots, and that is we’re human. We need to lean into our humanity, our empathy, our creativity.
We are going to succeed not despite being human, but because we’re human, creativity can be learned. I hope that you’ll take a look at my book, Beat the Bots: A Writer’s Guide to Surviving and Thriving in the age of AI.
I have very specific science-based techniques that will help. If this tip had value for you, would you like it, would you share it?
