And what of the recent progress that has been made with artificial intelligence capable of churning out reams of copy tailored to the specifications of the user? Word Handler believes firmly that AI is not a replacement for a human writer writing for other humans. AI is a tool, and a highly practical one, but it’s not a solution in itself. We by no means are unaware of what AI can do, both for good and evil. On the one hand, AI can produce copy that constitutes a very good starting point for copy humans can read and understand. On the other, it can also spit out imprecise copy that’s immediately identifiable as the work of a well-informed machine (rather than a sentient writer), and often fraught with factual errors, or what are known in the AI business as hallucinations. AI models are loath to admit that they don’t know the answer to something; as a result, when they don’t know the answer, they’re prone to make it up.

The simple reality is that AI isn’t as yet fully ready to be a consumer product, at least not one that can stand on its own two feet. If you really want to harness the full capabilities of AI, you’re going to need a human intermediary between the computer that grinds out the copy and the humans who are going to read it. At Word Handler, we know how to work with AI-generated copy to give it the all-important, essential and ephemeral human touch. We can edit your AI responses, remove the telltale signs that the copy wasn’t written by an actual person, and fact check the output to eliminate hallucinations masquerading as enlightenment.

 

Prompt Engineering

In addition to working with AI-generated copy, we can get AI to generate copy that’s as close to what you’re looking for as possible. We have the necessary experience creating prompts for a variety of models, and know what works and what doesn’t. Rather than fighting with a model to get what you need when you’re not sure how to ask for it, you can have Word Handler save you time and frustration. That means we your AI project all the way from the prompt stage to its human-friendly final shape. There’s no question that AI is here to stay. Our goal at Word Handler is to work with AI to streamline the writing process, save the client time and money, and still produce human-quality work.

 

Translate the Translation Service

Another AI-related area in which Word Handler excels is turning copy that’s been translated electronically into gobbledygook into something a human being can understand, while simultaneously concealing the copy’s origins as the work of translation software. We know what the shortcomings of Google Translate are, and we’ve worked with it long enough to know most of its tricks and to be able to turn what it thinks is English into English that really is English.
