Kevin Gannon: No one has satisfactorily answered the fundamental question of why I should bother to read something you couldn't be bothered to write

Almost everything I’ve seen about using “ai” to help you write essays straight up ignores the aspect of invention with writing. Simply put, writing helps you clarify what you think and leads to new insights. I remain unconvinced that generative tools are making that process “better.”

“A bottleneck of writing is sentence generation—getting ideas into sentences…That is a big task. That part is really costly in terms of cognitive load.”

How can students use AI to improve your writing?- Fast Companywww.fastcompany.com The professors call their approach “restrained generative AI,” and they’ve already built a prototype software tool that is being piloted in 10 courses at the university this semester.

No good answer is forthcoming. Ever.

Always on the way, never actually arriving

that is EXACTLY what I've been saying to my students since this nonsense started last year.

How else are you going to leverage those synergies Kevin

For day-to-day stuff, the way *I* say it isn't the *only* way to say it and may not even be the *best* way to say it, but tell you what, when my predictive text starts guessing correctly what I'm going to text on the regular, then let's talk.

so you can see the numbers you get over on threads. while not being on threads. if you search threads for your name, posts come up from people expressing they miss your tweets. SWAK!

You'll send your AI bot to read it.
