I taught an ai robot to write blog posts like me. Here is what I learned.

Jessica Malnik February 3, 2022

As a copywriter and content strategist, I have two choices. I can either be quick to dismiss the new tools that claim they can replace writers or, I dive in headfirst to learn them. Such is the case with AI writing tools. However, tweets, like this one, only add to my skepticism. But, I put aside my skepticism and embraced learning the ins and outs of a few of these AI tools.
