Designed as a supplementary text for composition and writing courses, the book explores the rapid evolution of GenAI and the many unsettled questions about its utility. Sid Dobrin provides a roadmap for students and instructors who wish to talk about programs such as ChatGPT but don't know how to begin. Writing prompts, discussion questions, and provocative short readings guide students in their consideration and use of GenAI programs, with a focus on the pragmatic: Can these programs can be used ethically in writing? What tasks might they work well for? Where do they fall short? Exercises covering the most commonly taught modes of composition make the book an ideal choice for any instructor who wishes to integrate coverage of GenAI into their undergraduate writing classroom."-- Provided by publisher.
