DESCRIPTION:Long-standing SENSE member David Barick is a freelance teacher 
 of academic writing and has worked at various universities and teaching ho
 spitals in the Netherlands. For many years\, he was the convener of the SE
 NSE Ed SIG. His talk will be based on a presentation originally created fo
 r the METM 25 conference in Barcelona. He writes:\n'Academics all over the
  world are having to deal with the increasing use of AI for writing academ
 ic assignments. For lecturers in scientific writing like myself who assist
  PhD candidates writing complex empirical research articles\, AI did not i
 nitially appear to be a particularly reliable source of advice. But the AI
  field is developing by leaps and bounds\, and universities are now taking
  it very seriously\, producing a steady stream of workshops and exercises 
 devoted to applications of generative AI for the classroom. If this keeps 
 up\, how much room will be left for the input of human teachers?\nIn this 
 presentation\, I will summarize the most interesting takeaways from AI wor
 kshops I have attended and evaluate the efficacy of new AI exercises that 
 I have been exposed to. In particular\, I will concentrate on how well AI 
 performs when asked to comment on higher-level aspects of writing\, such a
 s the structure of sentences and paragraphs. The presentation should be of
  interest to any language professionals who wonder how successful AI can b
 e in producing original texts.'\nRegistration for this Zoom meeting will c
 lose on Thursday 27 November at 17:00 CET\, and the link to the Zoom meeti
 ng will be emailed to everyone who registered.\n{show accesslevels='Regist
