How AI will affect Academic Writing and What this Means for the Student

Dear Student,

I am sure you have heard about some of the most recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI). One of these advances that have taken the writing world by storm is ChatGPT. This software can help individuals create content in a fraction of the time it would have taken in the past. But what do these tools mean for you as a student?

This is the question I want to answer in this email to help you determine how to leverage these tools in your research, find ideas, and write better content.

Professors Will Start Using AI Detecting Tools

The main advantage of AI is that it can help students pool a lot of research about a subject from different sources in a short period. It can be a considerable advantage for understanding and accessing arguments around a specific topic.

Because many students will start using AI when writing assignments, colleges and professors will now start employing AI detection tools to determine whether work submitted by students was written using AI tools.

For example, Turnitin has just launched an AI detection tool available to professors. Of course, it’s a long way before these tools become reliable. However, as a student, you must start considering how to leverage AI for learning but still produce human-written content.

How to Turn AI Writing into Human-Written Content

As a student, AI tools can have a vital role in your life if you use them responsibly.

Here are some ideas on how you can leverage AI to help you produce great work:

  • Edit and paraphrase your AI written assignment and ensure that the content in any paper is customized to the subject you are writing about so that you can avoid general statements that give away that a piece of writing was done using AI.
  • Ensure consistency in your writing so that there is no deviation between styles when submitting your work, as this can make markers suspicious.
  • Ensure that your papers include direct quotes because AI writing often removes them.
  • Write analytically instead of describing, showing that writing is a product of human thought.
  • Remove fake citations invented from AI-generated work.
