Stanford CRAFTHow can AI help us become better writers?
In this lesson, students compare AI and human-generated texts to analyze the affordances and limitations of large language models. They’ll score, guess origins, and discuss differences, then decide which aspects to adopt or avoid in their writing. The lesson culminates in a discussion of what aspects of the AI-generated writing students should emulate in their own writing and what aspects they should avoid.

“Very engaging. Involves critical thinking, discussion, and group work.”

“Many students will find it interesting to compare AI and human writing side by side and test their instincts about authorship.”
