    Last time I posted one of my articles here, I was really happy with the response and ability to engage with people through my writing. It ended with a brief comment exchange here, but I did end up getting some emails, which was nice. While I don’t post much with this account, and haven’t written in a while, I am back with some ramblings on writing and then some thoughts on the most recent MIT study about chatGPT usage and essay writing.

    In short, I did find the rhetoric around the released paper to be a bit misplaced, but have issues with the study design itself (EEG usage, task suitability, reported ownership and memory, and human consistency and bias). I am happy that they released everything so publicly, and wanted to share my thoughts.

    As always, just looking for readers, and looking for different perspectives, conversations, and critiques of my writing so that I can accelerate my own learning, and the value I can bring to others.
