Generative artificial intelligence (AI) continues to make headlines in text editing! among other areas. The famous Canadian software publisher Druide! a pioneer in this field! offers its customers two new ways to reformulate their texts in the Antidote software .
Six months after launching reformulation using generative AI ! Antidote is expanding this feature to help its customers make their texts even more dynamic and more precise. One small drawback is that these features are currently only available on Antidote Web.
Three types of reformulation
According to Druide informatique ! these new stylistic reformulations make it possible to avoid long sentences; passive turns of phrase and impersonal turns of phrase! according to documentation sent to the press last week.
“Unlike many other generative AIs! Antidote’s reformulation engine was trained with a corpus of exceptional quality data! compiled by our linguists. This contribution of human intelligence to linkedin database artificial intelligence gives you a positive angle to talk about this technology to your readership!” according to the publisher.
How does it work?
Once logged into your Antidote Web account! simply go to the tab offering style adaptations. When the AI detects a problem! it suggests a reformulation in the window on the right of the screen.
For example! she suggests replacing “On the Sunrise Community (UPC) site! a thread dedicated to “Change Day” has been opened to answer user questions” with “The Sunrise Community (UPC) site has opened a thread dedicated to “Change Day” to answer user questions.
To be improved
This example is interesting because this reformulation is not very stories in the web version happy. Indeed! a website cannot open a discussion thread itself. Its owners or administrators! yes… Everything is first of all a question of meaning! as our favorite literature professor reminded us in essence at university…
Once again! generative AI! which I regularly like to present as buggy to the core! does not understand the material submitted to it and what it does. I specify that this is the first example I used! like the other day with the Gemini assistant. No need to nitpick…
In the end! my advice remains the same. Don’t use school email list Antidote offers two new generative AI if you can’t verify the results produced. We could add: and control everything down to the smallest detail. Which brings me to my final question: to what extent do these AIs really save us time.
