Join us at the next Write the Docs London Meetup
Join us for an honest, practical conversation about what to automate, what not to, and how to stay relevant as the tools keep changing.
This event is aimed at technical writers and those working in closely related roles. The discussion will focus on automation and AI specifically in the context of technical documentation and technical content workflows.
Topics covered
If you’re not automating yet… you probably are.
Be honest: how much of your job are you already secretly automating, and how much of it is just automation in disguise?
In this session, Ellis Pratt, director of Cherryleaf, will look at automation in technical communication. He’ll rewind to where things stood just over a year ago, then discuss what’s changed since.
We’ll explore how automation shows up across the technical writing lifecycle, and common pitfalls that come with it.
Finally, we’ll look ahead. What does increasing automation really mean for our careers as technical writers and documentarians?
