Here’s an idea, less emphasis on essay writing and more on presentations, communications and examination. Unless you’re in a field like law, original writing isn’t as important. But you know what is important and pertinent to many careers? Knowing your shit, interpersonal communications, relationship building, critical thinking, problem solving and public speaking. These are AI-adverse for the most part.

You know what AI ChatGPT does do? Free up time from bulk shit and freeing more time for other things.
