10 tools based on AI that will change your freelancing career – TNW

Is your career endangered by AI?

The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race. It would take off on its own, and re-design itself at an ever increasing rate. Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldnt compete, and would be superseded.

Stephen Hawking told the BBC

Artificial intelligence is not science fiction any more, it is real. Furthermore, it is something that is happening now and there is a huge chance that you are working with a robot even at this particular moment (lets just remind you about A.I. gals like Siri and Cortana). With all the buzz around A.I. many people worry that they will lose their jobs and be replaced by bots and robots. Well, the fear of intelligent machines is justified and there are many studies, articles and pieces of research that go in favor. Worried, right?

Everything we love about civilization is a product of intelligence, so amplifying our human intelligence with artificial intelligence has the potential of helping civilization flourish like never before as long as we manage to keep the technology beneficial.

Max Tegmark, President of the Future of Life Institute

On the other hand, when it comes to (human) productivity, artificial intelligence can be a great ally. Many company owners claim that robots arent replacing human jobs, but making it even easier for people to do them. Since many pieces of research show that a majority of repetitive tasks can be done by bots and robots, rather than wasting precious human intelligence and knowledge, why not combine them and get impeccable results? Companies like Hitlist, Cable and Wireless or Alaska Airlines saw the mentioned A.I. potential and (successfully) brought it into service.

Hey, and what about freelancers? The recruiting department of the biggest freelance platforms such as Upwork and Peopleperhour, claim that the majority of freelancers provide services in niches that are very likely to be replaced by AI. Yup, web design, copywriting and SEO jobs can be in danger, but then again if you employer prefers (human) quality over quantity, you have nothing to worry about. On the contrary, here are 10 tools based on A.I. almighty, to utilize in order to make the most out of your work and uplift your productivity
