Using qualitative & computational methods to study writers on the internet. I study how machine learning experts communicate. I study the interaction between writers & audiences. Professor @ University of Illinois, Urbana Champaign
Last Friday I gave a keynote at the University of Kentucky, titled, “A Spectrum of GenAI Use in the Classroom.”
