Review of AI and Writing

Abstract

In AI and Writing, Sidney I. Dobrin offers students, instructors, and program administrators a broad overview of what generative AI (GenAI) technology is, how it works, and how it changes writing in professional, academic, civic, and personal contexts. While it was written as a textbook for writing-intensive courses focused on GenAI, Dobrin’s book doubles as a starting point for thinking about how large language models (LLMs) can be incorporated into writing assignments, curricula, and program outcomes.
