Many of us often joke that our jobs and daily chores will be completely replaced by technology one day. Instead of having to do the dishes or take the rubbish out, one day a robot may do it for us. And in the future, modern technology may well replace us at work too!
With this in mind, more and more people are becoming interested in the incredible potential for AI writers: computer programs that can write things for you, be it a poem, speech, essay or something completely different. It's thought they could make the most difficult, time-consuming or simply just boring writing tasks easier and quicker, delivering whatever you ask the AI writer to write to your computer within just a few seconds.
The AI tech currently taking the world by storm is ChatGPT, developed by OpenAI (an American artificial intelligence research company) which launched in November 2022 and has been designed to "interact in a conversational way" with users. After logging in to the program, users can ask ChatGPT a question on anything and it will use its huge database of information of a wide range of topics and themes to give you an answer, written in "human-like text", the way you'd converse with a friend or colleague. You can also ask ChatGPT to write poems, songs or essays for you that match a theme or feature a key word. In other words, it's a lot more advanced than asking Siri, Alexa or Google for something.
