The Impact of AI on Writing and Data Analysis
AI technologies significantly enhance the efficiency of writing and data analysis. An example is Seth's experience where what used to take him four days to analyze could now be completed in four hours with AI tools. He dedicated a month to writing 'Who Makes the NBA' and used AI for the data analysis and illustrations, allowing him to focus on creative and intellectual aspects rather than menial tasks. This shift underscores the transformative potential of AI, enabling authors to produce high-quality work in drastically reduced timeframes.
