Writing With AI: Artificial Intelligence Writing Applications And Tools Using Natural Language Generation (NLG)

“This is not a race against the machines. If we race against them, we lose. This is a race with the machines. You’ll be paid in the future based on how well you work with robots … It is inevitable. Let the robots take our jobs, and let them help us dream up new work that matters.” Kevin Kelly, The Inevitable: Understanding the 12 Technological Forces That Will Shape Our Future

Artificial Intelligence is moving into the realm of writing with natural language generation tools, as discussed in my book, Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain and Virtual Worlds: The Impact of Converging Technologies on Authors and the Publishing Industry. 

You can read/listen to the chapter on Writing in an Age of Artificial Intelligence here. This list includes companies, tools and services that offer Natural Language Generation (NLG) powered by Artificial Intelligence across various industries, from journalism to content/article writing, marketing, and creative writing.

Some of these tools are enterprise-level at premium prices, and others are free and experimental. [I have not used most of these services, so these are not recommendations, merely a place to start for your own investigation.]
