Any tenured faculty member who is promoting AI as a method to research or write is abdicating their responsibility as an educator and should resign and let one of the many adjunct faculty members who actually wants to teach take their job.

It includes links to references, from my work and that of others.

I tried to tag the authors whenever they are on here, in case you are interested in following their work.
