Love this idea! My mind immediately went to "Beyond Here Lies Nothin'" by Bob Dylan.

I understand why people in education say they're turning to this technology because they have too much to do and they think it can ease the burden, but this is not an AI problem. It's a labor problem that the AI is only going to make worse over time.

Because of the structure of school, particularly the stakes of assessment, we gave students methods to avoid the struggle of writing in order to create a more convincing simulation of someone who has written, but we were truly ruining the experience of writing along the way. We made it alienating.
