A magazine publisher recently created a complete issue using ChatGPT. Do you think that it is inevitable that editorial and content writing jobs will be completely taken over by AI?

I think there will be a significant shift in this space rather than a complete takeover. Like all jobs they must evolve and editorial and content must writing must too. If ti follows suit to most other industries a certain bottom percentage of the job is taken over leaving the top % the role. Things like fact checking, investigation, research and seeking the truth amongst the lies will become more prominent for these roles

No. What’ll happen is that a person who uses effectively ChatGPT will take away writing jobs from people who doesn’t use ChatGPT.

Exactly.  There have been some publicized stories about CHATGPT being wrong, or even lying.  However if you provide the text and facts to CHATGPT it does an amazing job rewriting things.  I am a terrible writer.  As a public speaker, I am much better.  I used to record myself and then type up that &#34;speech&#34; to improve my writing.  Now I just ask CHATGPT to rewrite my rambling paragraphs.  It has been fantastic.  BTW - I did not use CHATGPT on this and it shows  ;)<br><br>

Completely no, probably for selective content writing.

Editorials drive opinions based on the editors and the publications stance on specific issues.

When there can be multiple views and inferences on any subject, how will AI decide which one to take as a stance; maybe driven by the leading question? But that is driven by the human !

I am optimistic about the potential of AI to enhance and improve the editorial and content industry. While AI is already changing the landscape of these jobs, it is important to recognize that it will not replace human workers. Instead, AI can be used as a powerful tool to augment and enhance the work of human professionals.
