Writing allows you to devote more of your mental faculties to other things. Couldn't the same be true of AI-assisted writing?

Just because an idea is new/old doesn't mean it's good/bad

This is the point I'm trying to make (but apparently not very well)!

I see no advantage to students using AI and many problems.

Unless and until I see an advantage to a new tech, I hold my reserve. Obviously, a typewriter will give you better copy than a quill pen, and a word processor beats both.

But all three of those require the writer to come up with their own ideas.
