Our readingWhat is a korrent?

AI-assisted writing creates an illusion of greater creativity while actually reducing the originality of the ideas expressed.

Drawn from what Adam Grant said

What these subjects mean

creativity Making something new: where ideas come from, what conditions let them come, and whether a machine can have them.

AI and human skill Practised abilities decaying because a machine now does them: writing, thinking, reading anything long.

AI writing Prose a model wrote: what gives it away, what it does to reading, and whether anyone should publish it.

ideas vs execution Whether the idea or the execution behind it is what actually decides an outcome, and who deserves the credit.

Where does creativity come from?under our view: Machines produce sameness; the new ideas still come from people Why does writing matter, now that a model can write for you?under our view: Writing your own words keeps the mind fit, and handing them to a model hands over the thinking

What Adam Grant actually said

  1. Adam Grant Organizational psychologist and professor at the Wharton School
    although students' personal statements seem more creative because they use more varied words, they actually feature less original ideas. AI writing produces an illusion of creativity.
