Yes. Writing is not a second thing that happens after thinking. The act of writing is an act of thinking. Writing *is* thinking. Students, academics, and anyone else who outsources their writing to LLMs will find their screens full of words and their minds emptied of thought.

Right on. Great writers know this. Pressing a button on ChatGPT to "write" doesn't teach you to reason things through.

Autocracy vs. Democracy in leadership. It's a complicated question, but our research shows that democracy wins. Here's why. joshbersin.com/podcast/democr…
