What does this mean for the art of writing? According to longtime writing teacher John Warner: not very much. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eMore Than Words \u003c\/i\u003eargues that generative AI programs like ChatGPT not only \u003ci\u003ecan \u003c\/i\u003ekill the student essay but \u003ci\u003eshould\u003c\/i\u003e, since these assignments don't challenge students to do the real work of writing. To Warner, writing is thinking--discovering your ideas while trying to capture them on a page--and feeling--grappling with what it fundamentally means to be human.
