Does Artificial Intelligence (AI) Pose a Threat to The Future of Grant Writing and Grant Writers? 🧐 [Video]

Does Artificial Intelligence (AI) Pose a Threat to The Future of Grant Writing and Grant Writers? 🧐

Curious about how AI (artificial intelligence) will impact the future of grant writing? Will grant writers even be needed? 😨

An article we read on AI concluded that AI works better when partnered with humans. ✋ We think that is going to be the same story when AI enters the field of grant writing.

No, you’re not getting written out of the picture when it comes to creative writing. ✍️ We do think there are certain writing jobs that will be replaced by AI, including financial reports published daily.

Curious how you could get into grant writing and build a career in it? Here is a free training on how to do that without volunteering or having prior experience: https://www.learngrantwriting.org/webinar-videos/discover-grant-writing

When looking at a software solution to streamline the grant writing process, it was found that the skill is really human centered. The structures in which you operate as a grant writer are still painfully slow. 🐢 This is not exactly an industry that is pioneering the way forward to be super progressive.

Using standardized language to plug in and adjust per the application? Even that is too complicated as every grant application is nuanced and you have to answer the question precisely. 📏

If anyone is going to know about the role of AI entering into the world of grant writing, it’s the team at Learn Grant Writing. We’ll figure out how to take out the mundane parts of grant writing so the best parts are still saved for our creative thinking minds. 🧠

✨ TL;DR: Don’t let the fear of AI hold you back. It’s not something that’s coming anytime soon for the grant writing industry. ✨
