News are filled with articles which tasks AI can take over, thus replacing the human even in creative tasks.

What does that mean for the job of a Technical Writer? Actually, AI can formulate sentences, AI can structure according to examples, AI can translate, AI can check whether regulatory requirements are met and change the text accordingly, AI can derive terminology, and AI can do the research work beforehand.

What is left? Is this really the reality or are there any additional requirements not been taken into account so far?
