Medium’s new TK app brings AI assistance directly into the writing process

Medium has released a new writing app called TK that incorporates AI assistance directly into the writing process. The app allows users to ask for help by typing “@TK” followed by their request or prompt, and can provide answers to questions, access previously saved writing, and offer editorial feedback. The app is available on the web and is part of Medium’s efforts to bring AI technology deeper into the writing process, despite controversy over its role in publishing. TK can pull in bits of writing previously saved in the app, answer questions like how many days are in a particular month, and offer editorial feedback, headline feedback, and other skills that match the user’s draft to the style guide for Medium publications.
