In the age of Artificial Intelligence, technical communication is teetering on the brink of a major makeover. Our presentation, aptly titled "Shit in Shit out – Now with AI!", takes a candid and insightful look at how AI is reshaping the landscape of technical documentation. We slice through the pervasive AI hype to uncover what’s genuinely transformative and what remains mere buzzwords. From writing tools that might give your least favorite editor a run for their money to chatbots you actually want to talk to, we explore the current AI arsenal available to technical communicators. But it’s not all high-tech wizardry—we delve into what it takes to elevate AI from a simple writing assistant to a strategic powerhouse, emphasizing the indispensable roles of structured content and metadata. Additionally, we confront the critical issue of ensuring that AI-generated content adheres to approved standards, maintaining quality and compliance. Join us for a balanced and engaging journey that equips technical communicators with the knowledge to harness AI’s potential effectively, without getting lost in the noise.
