AI thinkers for English teachers β Julian Girdham
Links to thinkers about artificial intelligence, whose writings I find helpful in navigating its implications for English.

Institutional AI literacy. This, IMO, is the real strength of the MLA-CCCC task force report which considers "all agents in the academic enterprise: students, faculty members, programs or departments, and institutions" aiandwriting.hcommons.org/working-pape...
