Being a well-paid writer no longer means just writing print or journalistic content.

Thanks to the age we live in, the writing industry now spans across a ton of formats.

In fact, in online content alone, there are 10+ content types.

  • Blogs
  • Ebooks
  • Web pages
  • Whitepapers
  • Landing pages
  • Sales copy
  • Headlines and taglines
  • Email
  • Video transcripts
  • Video summaries

…and more!

The amount of content on the web is fueled by the consumption of a global audience doing an astounding 7 billion searches/day on Google alone.

With the increase of content consumption comes an increased need for writers to produce fresh and engaging content at volume.

That’s good news for you as a writer.

But also bad news.

Brain fog. Lack of creativity. Inability to call up the writing muse. It can all stop even the best writer in their tracks.

That’s why artificial intelligence can and should pave our future. Instead of looking at this technology in terror, it’s time to embrace AI writing tools—simply because of how much easier the writing process becomes when incorporating AI into the process.

Ours, HyperWrite, gives you access to powerful generative text tools that will speed up the writing process – allowing you to meet the growing demand for new content. Get first dibs on a free trial now.

Why Accepting Modern Technology Will Save Your Business

Since the mid-20th century, our world has been immersed in the age of technology.

Society shifted from traditional forms of industry to information technology. Businesses had to accept the advancements in technology – or be left behind.

Case in point: Back in 1888, Eastman Kodak was founded – growing to be a multi-billion-dollar supplier of cameras and film. Yet, by 2012 they were filing for bankruptcy because they couldn’t compete with digital cameras. It wasn’t until Kodak embraced new technology that their business began to recover.

Polaroid, Blockbuster Inc., Borders Group.

Recognize those names? They were each hit by the dawn of technology – but didn’t adapt right away.

Adopting advanced technology is the only way to survive in this tech-focused world.

Generative text tools have entered the world of writers. Are you ready to take your writing into the new age?

How to Embrace Scary, New, Modern AI Technology in Your Writing

But wait – if AI is generating text for people, are human writers going extinct?

That is a common fear, but, I’m here to share that this isn’t true at all.

People need more content than ever before!

77% regularly read blogs.

More than 7 million new posts are published daily.

Of those new blog posts, the most competitive content is long-form content. These are posts with more than 3,000 words that rank at the top of Google.

How is all that new content produced? Writers – like you.

Compare today’s landscape to the year 1999, when there were just 23 blogs on the internet.

In less than 10 years, this number exploded to a huge 50 million blogs by 2006.

Times have changed, and the way businesses produce content needs to change with the times. An article written even one year ago can easily grow outdated if it isn’t regularly updated with the latest statistics and research.

Readers have access to an ocean of information that is updated daily. If you aren’t sharing the most updated statistics, readers will lose their trust in you. But – if you keep the readers informed of the latest changes in your business, you can quickly grow to be a leader in your industry.

What is the solution? How can writers afford the extra time needed to meet this demand?

The answer is AI.

If you want to avoid your own Kodak moment – and fall behind on the times – embrace new technology. For writers, this means bringing generative text tools into your writing process.

These tools aren’t replacing you as a writer. They are replacing the blank page to speed up the writing process.

You don’t need to generate dozens of new pieces of content from scratch each week. Just use generative text tools to help you create outlines and rough first drafts.

Good writers can shorten the time it takes to come up with new ideas by harnessing AI to help them form the basis of their outline – saving businesses hours of legwork.

What is a Generative Text Tool?

What is text generation’s meaning?

Generative text tools are software – like HyperWrite – that produce text from algorithms that reproduce human-like writing.

This is not an easy accomplishment. Writing is a creative task, not like math and other sciences that are based on regular patterns. Words and language involve more complex issues like semantics, jargon, and catch-phrases that don’t always follow set rules.

There is an entire field of study specifically dedicated to copying language subtleties. This area of study is called Natural Language Processing (NLP). Text generation NLP uses this technology to understand patterns in writing.

Deep learning is a branch of AI which goes beyond just understanding humans to being able to recreate human actions – like how AI learns to drive cars for people. Text generation using deep learning is what gives AI writing a natural flow.

How Generative Text Tools Learn to Write Like Humans

Generative text tools need to be trained to write – just like people.

HyperWrite, our own AI writing tool, has been trained on millions of books and articles. It studies the patterns of language, then replicates those same patterns in its text suggestions.

Once a writer begins typing, HyperWrite analyzes each word, then pulls from those materials. With a quick scan of common sentence patterns, it can predict the most likely paragraph or sentence that should come next.

Another way HyperWrite learns is from you as the writer. It can pick up on your unique style of writing, then copy those same patterns in its suggestions.

If generative text tools have so much information, how do they know what’s relevant?

You have control over how much information your generative text tool knows about your project. With HyperWrite, you can input an outline, theme, or important facts you want included in your project. This will act as a guide for HyperWrite to suggest only the most relevant sentences and thoughts.

How Generative Text Tools Help Writers

All this complex technical knowledge is interesting, but useless unless you know how it fits into your job as a writer.

What can generative text tools do for you?

Generative text tools help you write faster, more accurately, and more creatively.

Here are some specific ways you can see this in practice.

Writing Faster with Generative Text Tools

To keep up with the demand for new information, a writer needs to produce regular content – creating 2-3 new posts each week.

The most successful bloggers will take around 4 hours to write each post.

That is equal to half a workday in a 40-hour workweek just to create one post.

Generative text tools can cut that time down 2-5X through three simple ways:

  1. It produces sentences in seconds, saving you writing time.
  2. It generates new ideas, breaking any writer’s block.
  3. It crafts an outline for you, giving you ideas to begin writing.

It won’t replace your writing, just your first draft by generating ideas you can build on. Once you have that initial content on the page, your job as a writer becomes ten times easier. Just take those initial ideas and outline, then flesh it out with engaging statics, edits for flow and headlines that will capture your audience.

Once you input the topic, you can add a short description.

The description section can include a short topic sentence, general outline, or paragraphs of facts and figures.

The second option for generating text is available whether or not you have ThinkAhead selected. Find it at the bottom left of your tool – marked with the HyperWrite logo. Clicking it will give you three suggestions for text continuations.

These sentences each take the topic in a different direction.

In this specific example, the writer could continue discussing generative text by discussing the purpose of generative text, the uses of generative text, or the dangers of generative text.

If the writer decides they do not like the results, the suggestions can be refreshed for a new set of sentences.
