If you would like to know what @balloonleap.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy and I think about the relationship between generative AI chatbots and the teaching of writing, we have an article for you to read! 1/ #writingstudies #genai+writing #teamrhetoric cjsdw.journals.publicknowledgeproject.org/index.php/dw...

Ocean-sized confidence by 8 computer scientists & engineers who, having designed an AI writing tool, recruited 6 of their grad students & postdocs to test it, and now advertise the results in their non-peer-reviewed preprint as: this will reshape how humans write! #writingstudies #genai+writing

"We suggest that the scientific community needs to think carefully about where we find worth in what we do. LLMs are eroding that space." #writingstudies #cdnwrds #teamrhetoric #genai+writing

Going to use this in my research writing class next week. Where we have been doing genre move analysis, so students are very ready. #writingstudies #teamrhetoric #cdnwrds

Notes on the student essay from a classic, Womack, "What Are Essays For?," 1993: The essay is "a culturally specific form of communication which has not always existed, and which depends for its existence now on some quite definite institutional contexts" /1 #writingstudies #teamrhetoric #cdnwrds

Current AI models work with snapshots of what was on the internet circa 2022. These sources in turn foreground older, already heavily cited sources. A feedback cycle that drives model collapse. #citation #writingstudies #cdnwrds #teamrhetoric

My goal this year is to post more often about interesting #writingstudies and #teamrhetoric research. Was organizing some notes from last year, and here are a few insightful quotes from Shelton, "Queer(ing) the Bias Monster and Subjectivities." 1/ journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Like, I can tell you that across Canadian universities the productivity expectations for writing studies instructors have increased—e.g., in the form of student numbers—and they are not reasonable. #writingstudies #cdnpse #cdnwrds #teamrhetoric #rhetcomp

So I think it can be too corrosive to teach students to read and write that way. A misapplied hermeneutics of suspicion, perhaps, which should be better directed, used in more productive ways. #writingstudies #genai+writing #cdnwrds #teamrhetoric bsky.app/profile/natk...

Very good thread—how mixed, disjointed modalities used to be part of how to recognize unhinged communication. Now masked by the surface polish of genAI chatbots. #writingstudies #genai+writing

Sandstead & Kibler, "Voice in L2 Writing in the Age of AI" build on Matsuda and think about how chatbot and human voice can be conceptualized in distinction from each other. With pedagogical implications added on. #writingstudies #genai+writing #cdnwrds linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii...
