Welcome to episode 076 of the AI for Technical Writers podcast from the Curt Robbins & Associates Technical Writing Agency. This podcast is targeted at IT professionals and technical writers. Subscribe today to never miss a single episode!

Today’s episode reviews a new report from Anthropic entitled "Which Economic Tasks are Performed with AI? Evidence from Millions of Claude Conversations" that was published on February 10.

Hosts Daphne and Fred share their spirited analysis of this insightful report and unpack its assessment of the current job market and the role that AI plays in a variety of job types and industry segments.

The pair discuss the findings from the report, including how technical writers and IT professionals are being affected by AI, including how they can best prepare for the future and a world filled with AI.

They also confront the controversial topic of job disruption and whether AI will replace technical writers. They determine that AI is currently best positioned as a supplement to human skills and that the most successful technical writers and documentation specialists will be those who embrace AI and learn how to use it to boost efficiency and improve productivity.
