Writer Andrew Joscelyne believes the rise of AI-generated writing could presage a world in which virtually no human being ever bothers to write again.

Writing — for all practical purposes — would be the purview of AI-driven machines.

Observes Joscelyne: “We may well be on the cusp of a new epoch in language practice and awareness.”

Perish the thought.

In other AI-generated writing news:

*In-Depth Guide: NeuralText: Copywriters looking for auto-content writing, search engine optimization and keyword clustering in one tool will want to check-out NeuralText.

Essentially: This guide to NeuralText promises a comprehensive look at every feature NeuralText offers.

It’s a very slick presentation, in that you can click on more than a dozen links to home-in on the specific feature(s) of NeuralText that most interest you — say NeuralText’s SEO features, or how it compares with other AI writers.

Saas Reviews’ final verdict: NeuralText offers a wide variety of features, but it is master of none.

*Copy Directors: The Next Generation of Copywriting?: Expect copywriters to be replaced by ‘Copy Directors’ — or managers that squire AI-generated machines to produce marketing copy that is currently produced by humans, according to Saim Rolf Alkan.

Alkan is CEO of AX Semantics, a pioneer in AI-generated writing.

This view of the future essentially confirms what many copywriters already fear: That fewer companies will need teams of copywriters to churn-out copy.

Instead, those companies can turn production of writing over to a single machine that is overseen by a single, human manager.

*Big Tech: The Biggest Winners in AI-Powered Journalism?: Google, Microsoft and Amazon could end-up with a stranglehold on news — given that many news organizations will rely on AI tools from these tech behemoths as they migrate to AI-driven journalism.

So says Felix M. Simon, a doctoral candidate at the Oxford Internet Institute.

Observes Simon: “By handing over central functions of news work to AI-controlled by large platform companies, news organizations risk losing control over some of the day-to-day operational decision-making and long-term strategic thinking involved in running them.”

*Major Business Intelligence Software Now Using AI Writing: Business intelligence software Tableau now offers plain English explanations of data analysis previously only available in graphic form.

Dubbed ‘Data Stories,’ the new feature uses AI-generated writing from Narrative Sciences — which it acquired last Winter — to pull-off the feat.

The tech works by analyzing data in company databases and translating its insights into easy-to-understand sentences — in addition to charts, graphs and other data visualizations.

Tableau’s new commitment to AI-generated writing follows Microsoft’s jump into the space last year with ‘Smart Narrative.’

It’s a free tool for Microsoft Power BI — Microsoft’s business analytics software — that can auto-generate a text explanation of a chart or graph with a single click.

*New AI App Offers Automated Invoice Processing: Infrrd has rolled-out a new app that helps automate processing of invoices.

The software works by extracting data from unstructured or semi-structured documents and transforming it into data that can be automatically read and processed by computers.

Says Amit Jnaga, CEO, Infrrd: “Many organizations processing anywhere from tens to hundreds of thousands of invoices monthly still rely on manual intervention, which isn’t scalable nor cost-effective.

“Infrrd for Invoice allows these types of companies to transform their back-office operations.”

*New AI Auto-Translates Doctors’ Speech-to-Text: Two pioneers in AI recordkeeping are offering new software that auto-creates a transcript of every medical consultation.

The app is specifically designed for health providers working in home health and hospice care.

Says Debbi Gillotti, CEO, nVoq — the company providing the AI: “nVoq’s speech recognition helps streamline the documentation process, improves clinician productivity, and nearly eliminates off-hours documentation.”

*Super Auto-Text Writing Engine Available for Research: If you’re short a few million dollars for your research into AI-generated writing, MetaAI has a solution: You can use our supercomputer-driven auto-writing engine.

Observe MetaAI researchers: “Access to the model (auto-writing engine) will be granted to academic researchers — those affiliated with organizations in government, civil society and academia — along with industry research laboratories around the world.

“We believe the entire AI community — academic researchers, civil society, policymakers, and industry — must work together to develop clear guidelines around responsible AI in general and responsible large language models in particular.”

*New Video: AI in the Newsroom: The AI, Media and Democracy Lab offers its insights into AI in journalism in this 36-minute video.

One interesting insight: AI is blurring the lines in newsrooms in terms of traditional roles, tasks, responsibilities, ethical boundaries and economic interests, according to many in the video.

More than a dozen panelists are featured in the production.

*AI Big Picture: Unfortunately, Hackers Have AI, Too: One of the downsides of AI’s current and future wizardry is that criminals will have the same access to that power as decent folks.

Observes writer Zac Amos: “Hackers are showing their innovative tendencies yet again by using artificial intelligence to improve their attacks’ reach, effectiveness and profitability.

“And as cyberwarfare becomes more and more common around the globe, we will surely see the applications of AI in hacking develop even further.”
