Today’s episode dives into an article from senior technical writer Curt Robbins about the impact of government policies on technical writers and documentation experts.
Hosts Daphne and Fred share their spirited analysis of this educational article from Robbins, including advice about how technical writers can best prepare for a world of sometimes disruptive governmental oversight, including lifelong learning and staying current on government regulations and the latest technology (such as artificial intelligence).
They also recommend several relatively new tools that can help technical writers, including Confluence, Jasper AI, Grammarly, and Notion.
