What Still Matters: Technical Writing Skills That Survive and Thrive with Agentic AI
Scott Abel
Abstract
As agentic AI begins to reshape documentation workflows, many technical writers are asking the same question: which of our traditional skills still matter? In this session, Scott Abel, The Content Wrangler, explores the enduring value of the core technical communication skills that go beyond drafting and editing. From style mastery and information gathering to content reuse, conditional processing, and editorial judgment, he shows why these capabilities remain essential in AI-augmented environments.
Rather than positioning AI as a replacement for technical writers, Abel examines how AI can strengthen the work of professionals who know how to structure information, manage complexity, and govern content for accuracy, consistency, and trust.
