AI is not a tool – it’s a transformation. But before jumping into prompts or pilots, we need to ask the right questions: What exactly do we mean by "AI" in the context of technical communication? What expectations are realistic? And how do we align this powerful technology with editorial goals, user needs, and existing infrastructures? This talk explores the complexity of strategy development and outlines the key dimensions to consider – from compliance and data privacy to workflows and content quality. A must-attend for those who want to shape the future instead of chasing buzzwords.

Takeaways

You will gain a clearer understanding of AI in tech comm, explore the complexity of strategic integration, and take away practical ideas and methods to kick-start or refine your own AI strategy.

Prior knowledge

This presentation is for people who have experience of how technical writing teams work in organisations and the challenges they face.
