When AI Steals Jobs: The New Role of Humanizing the Robots

Is AI really making us more productive, or are we just cleaning up after its mess?
The rise of AI in the workplace is reshaping jobs, particularly in creative fields like copywriting. As AI systems increasingly take over tasks traditionally performed by humans, a new role has emerged: editing and humanizing AI-generated content.
This involves fixing grammar, cutting unnecessary formal language, and fact-checking to correct AI's inaccuracies. Despite the promise of enhanced productivity, the reality often involves repetitive, tedious work that many find less rewarding. Copywriters now find themselves editing AI-generated articles to add a “human touch,” making the text sound less robotic and more engaging.
