The third domain of Emotional Intelligence is Social Awareness.
And a big part of Social Awareness is feeling empathy for others.
We feel empathy when we open our ears and our hearts, and walk in the shoes of other people. We feel what they feel.
This is easier said than done.
When it comes to truly understanding the feelings of someone close to us, or just like us, we can score reasonably well. On a good day!
Client companies are already seeing it… and they don’t like it.
Freelance and in-house writers are relying too heavily on AI tools like ChatGPT to write their sales copy, content, and social media updates.
The result? When you use the same tool as every other writer, you begin to churn out writing that feels generic, flat… and the same as everything else out there.
And that’s the part companies don’t like.
AI is the big thing right now.
And while tools like ChatGPT are incredible in many ways, there’s one thing they’re really, really bad at.
Emotion.
Bots don’t do emotion.
They definitely don’t write with emotional intelligence.
For a start, they have no first-hand experience of emotions. Lines of code can’t fall in love, or laugh.
And they can’t feel empathy for others. Lines of code don’t care about people, and how they feel.
