As an English professor, I hear people at every level talking constantly about the use of AI in writing, but nobody seems to be talking about the thing that matters most: AI cannot write. Writing has language, and writing has communication, but the communication does not live inside the language. This is a video essay about what writing is. Meetings of the mind with Stephen King, Gertrude Stein, Lewberger, Max Teeth, CyberGrapeUK, and others--but by necessity *not* with ChatGPT.

Recorded on a Macbook Pro using OBS and a little bit of editing trickery. If you look at the timestamps on the files you can probably deduce that when I say "two weeks ago" I mean about four months ago.
