In this episode, we'll examine these claims through the lens of technical writing. We'll:
- Examining recent claims about AI's lack of ROI
- Exploring how these claims stack up in the world of technical writing
- Looking at the potential benefits and pitfalls of AI for our work
- Discussing what factors might influence whether AI is worth the investment
Whether you're an AI enthusiast or a sceptic, stick around. Let’s figure out where AI really stands in the world of technical documentation.
We'll also publish a transcript of this podcast on the Cherryleaf blog.

The way users want to access information may be undergoing a seismic shift. Some have suggested technical communication is rapidly moving towards a question-and-answer (Q&A) paradigm. As user behaviour moves away from reading and towards asking, we discuss how chatbots, AI, and Q&A-driven interfaces are reshaping the expectations and responsibilities of technical communicators. Takeaway quote: "It’s not about crafting a list of 20 questions. It’s about building a robust knowledge system that can handle any question and deliver meaningful answers."

1 156: Privacy and AI: Risks and Solutions for Technical Writers 22:13
22:13 나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요22:13
나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요Summary: In this episode, Ellis Pratt explores the critical issue of data privacy for technical writers using AI tools and chatbots. He delves into the potential risks, from data leaks and copyright infringement to compliance violations and intellectual property concerns. The episode also provides practical solutions and strategies for mitigating these risks, empowering technical writers to leverage AI responsibly and ethically. Key Discussion Points: The Promise and Peril of AI: AI offers significant productivity gains for technical writers (content creation, first drafts, automation of tasks), but introduces critical privacy risks. Potential Risks of Using AI: Data Leaks: Inputted data becoming part of the AI model, accessible to others. Copyright Infringement: AI generating content based on competitor data. Data Breaches: Risk of AI providers being hacked. Data Sovereignty: Data stored in different countries potentially conflicting with regulations. Compliance Violations: Risks related to regulated industries (healthcare, finance). Intellectual Property Rights: Ambiguity over who owns AI-generated content. Practical Solutions and Mitigation Strategies: Sanitising Content: Replace sensitive data (API keys, product names) with placeholders. Generic Examples: Use generic rather than actual customer data. Limiting Data Input: Provide only the minimum amount of data required. Review and Redact: Carefully review content before inputting to AI. Check Public Domain Status: Determine if the content is already publicly available. AI Provider Privacy Policies: Review data retention policies and opt-out options. Choosing Secure Tools: Select tools with better data deletion options (e.g., Google GeminiAI Studio, Claude). Managing Data Controls: Understand how to control data collection settings (e.g., ChatGPT). Private/Managed LLMs: Consider private, self-hosted, or managed AI models for sensitive data. Develop Policies and Procedures: Create guidelines for team use of AI, tiered approaches based on document sensitivity. Content Filters: Implement filters to check for sensitive information. Audits and Assessments: Engage IT security for impact assessments and security audits. Actionable Takeaways: Prioritise Data Sanitisation: Make it a core practice before using any AI tool. Review Privacy Policies: Understand the data handling practices of your AI providers. Implement Security Measures: Protect proprietary and confidential information through policies, technology, and human oversight. Collaborate with Security and Legal: Engage relevant internal teams to ensure compliance and minimize risk. Start Small and Stay Informed: Gradually introduce AI with low-risk documentation and keep up to date on the latest privacy risks and solutions. Quotes: "AI and chatbots offer in technical writing…a huge promise of a way to be more efficient and more effective in what we do. But…we do need to be aware that there is a privacy risk, and we need to address that." "AI…is both a powerful productivity tool and a potential risk. So we need to think about those two aspects and manage it." "So we're going to be on a tightrope, a privacy tightrope." Want Help Improving Your Documentation?

In this episode of the Cherryleaf Podcast, we explore the challenges of receiving and responding to criticism as a technical writer. Documentation plays a crucial role in user experience, and receiving feedback—whether constructive or harsh—can be an opportunity for growth. We discuss practical strategies for handling feedback, evaluating its validity, and implementing improvements to enhance documentation quality. Key Topics Covered: ✅ Why receiving feedback (even negative) is better than receiving none ✅ How to separate personal feelings from professional criticism ✅ The importance of acknowledging user feedback and addressing concerns ✅ Types of criticism: Constructive vs. Unconstructive ✅ Methods for evaluating the validity of feedback ✅ Tools and techniques to measure documentation quality (e.g., IBM Quality Matrix, analytics, usability testing) ✅ Addressing common documentation challenges: clarity, findability, audience mismatch, and linking ✅ Steps for implementing improvements and tracking their impact ✅ Preventative measures for reducing future criticism Key Takeaways: Criticism is not personal – It’s about improving the documentation, not attacking the writer. Acknowledging feedback is crucial to building trust and ensuring continuous improvement. Evaluating feedback critically helps differentiate between valid concerns and personal preferences. Quality measurement techniques (analytics, support ticket trends, usability testing) can validate feedback. Structured improvements through linking, clearer writing, audience targeting, and prioritization can make a big impact. Continuous monitoring is necessary to ensure long-term effectiveness. Mentioned Resources & Tools: 🔹 IBM Quality Matrix for documentation assessment 🔹 "Every Page is Page One" by Mark Baker 🔹 Google Analytics & support ticket analysis for measuring documentation success 🔹 Usability testing tools (e.g., video session tracking) 🔹 Style guides, templates, and content governance Want Help Improving Your Documentation?

나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요We talk to Daniel Foster, Director of Strategy at TechSmith, about the contentious relationship between technical writers and video content. A growing trend among technical writers is the integration of video content alongside traditional documentation and visuals, offering a dynamic and immersive medium to enhance user understanding and engagement. However, writers generally prefer words because they’re easier to reuse and scale, as well as being more efficient for their overall business. This leads to a rather contentious relationship with video elements...especially with clients specifically requesting more of them. Daniel regularly works with technical writers on how to bridge this gap and effectively leverage video content to complement their writing. We discuss how technical writers can effectively manage this contentious relationship. We will publish a transcript on the Cherryleaf blog.

나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요It's been about three months since ChatGPT was launched. And we thought it would be good to look at really the status of what ChatGPT might mean for the future of technical communication. And we did a blog and we did some experiments back in December, as have others, and people have reflected on the pros and cons of it. And we thought it would be good to take a look at it today. -- We'll post a transcript to the Cherryleaf Blog.
