"The world of writing is changing.
Things have moved very quickly from keyboards and predictive text. The rise of
generative artificial intelligence (AI) means bots can now write human-quality
text without having hands at all.
Recent improvements in speech-to-text software mean even human “writers” do not
need to touch a keyboard, let alone a pen. And with help from AI, text can even
be generated by decoders that read brain activity through non-invasive
scanning.
Writers of the future will be talkers and thinkers, without having to lift a
finger. The word “writer” may come to mean something very different, as people
compose text in multiple ways in an increasingly digital world. So do humans
still need to learn to write by hand?"
