Podcast Lesson
"Separate text generation from the writing craft When debating whether AI has surpassed human writers, Jasmine Sun reframed the question by pointing out that text generation is only a fraction of a writer's actual job. "My job — I am generating text probably 25% of the hours in my day. I spend a lot of time interviewing people. I spend a lot of time coming up with ideas... the non-text-generation parts of the role feel further away from automation." Anyone assessing AI's impact on their own profession should map out how much of their work is actually the output production versus the judgment, sourcing, and ideation that precedes it.
