AI-Writing: Now the ‘It’ App

A new piece in The New York Times confirms that AI-generated writing — along with similar AI creation tools — is now the ‘it’ app.

The tools, which also go by the buzz-phrase ‘generative AI,’ are turning the heads of myriad Silicon luminaries, including Sergey Brin, co-founder, Google.

Observes writer Kevin Roose: “It’s been a banner year, in particular, for generative AI apps that turn text prompts into an image.

“DALL-E 2, the image generator that OpenAI released this spring, has more than 1.5 million users creating more than two million images every day, according to the company.

“Midjourney, another popular AI image generator released this year, has more than three million users in its official Discord server.

“That kind of growth has set off a feeding frenzy among investors hoping to get in early on the next big thing.”

*In-Depth Guide: Peppertype: Digital Scholar is mostly upbeat on AI writer Peppertype — but it does have a few reservations.

Peppertype is able to create top quality content in moments, offers an easy-to-use dashboard and sports 40+ writing format templates, according to Digital Scholar.

Another interesting feature: Peppertype enables users to build a library of writing featuring their favorite writing style — which Peppertype then emulates.

But Digital Scholar also yellow flags the software for lacking an editor for long-form articles and posts — as well as limited tone-of-voice options.

Plus, it also takes some time to become a power user of Peppertype.

“And the total number of keywords for which the blog was ranking was around 30K — with around 1K keywords ranking at the top SERP (search engine return page) positions.

“In addition, the blog also started to generate more than $2K a month in revenue.”

The company now describes its software — which now includes an app that auto-creates art using a brief text input — as ‘generative AI.’

Observes Jasper CEO Dave Rogenmoser: “Generative AI represents a major breakthrough in creative potential, but it’s still inaccessible and intimidating to many.

“Jasper is working to bring AI to the masses and teach people how to leverage it responsibly so that businesses and individuals can better convey their ideas.”

“And millions more across the entire space actively use various AI solutions to generate content.

“I believe it’s only just the beginning.”

The reconstituted company will go by the name ‘Copyryter.’

*PC Magazine Offers Its Take on Three Top AI Writers: Writer S.C. Stewart took three top auto writers for a spin and decided Hyperwrite was the best-of-the-batch.
