Are you struggling to resist the temptation of ChatGPT? Are you worried that your writing doesn't sound human or authentic? This presentation will discuss the cognitive effects of relying on generative AI in the writing process and emerging implications for critical thinking. You will gain strategies for reconnecting with the discovery process of writing, as well as ways to enhance your academic voice through practices like novelty moves and stance-taking language.
