🔑 Top Takeaways:
🔹 AI is a Powerful Tool, Not a Replacement:
Danielle explained that while AI can speed up early drafts and idea generation, it cannot replace the nuance, authenticity, and emotional connection only a human can bring to a story.
🔹 Humanization is the Next Competitive Edge:
With more AI-generated content than ever, the demand for “humanized” writing—real stories, personal anecdotes, and tailored voices—is skyrocketing. Human editors are essential to transform flat AI text into captivating narratives that resonate.
🔹 Transparency and Ethics in Publishing:
There’s a growing push for transparency around AI usage. Platforms like Amazon KDP now require authors to disclose AI involvement, and major publications frequently reject AI-only submissions. The conversation around ethics and originality is just getting started.
