AI is compressing the timeline from idea to publication—but faster doesn't have to mean sloppier. In this 30-minute session, Second Draft Labs, a new publishing company, walks through their publishing process, showing how AI tools can accelerate drafting, editing, and production without sacrificing the judgment and craft that good publishing depends on. Attendees will leave with a clear picture of what a modern, AI-assisted publishing workflow actually looks like in practice, where human editorial decisions still matter most, and a roadmap for getting published.
