  And what about that sweet, glorious feeling when a conversation suddenly turns to a topic you’ve written an essay about, and you know it’s your time to shine?!<br><br>Great video!

  As a current college student, AI is killing the essay and it makes me so sad. This year, most classes that used to have essays have resorted to short form in class writing and tests even in humanities classes that would otherwise have essays.

  Regular mini essays are a great way to make formal academic essays less stressful

  Damn this is crazy because I LOVE Jane Austen, like LOVE, and I keep thinking like wow I wish I could have been assigned an essay on Pride and Prejudice or Persuasion in school, particularly on the tension between foreshadowing and dramatic irony in the books, but I studied biology so no dice. Idk if I&apos;m stupid but it legitimately never occurred to me I could just.. write one 😭

  When I was younger, I journaled alot; &nbsp;writing down my thoughts made them visible <b>and</b> stopped them from swirling in my head. &nbsp;It was invaluable for clearing my mind so I could concentrate on the present.

  Here&apos;s what I tell people who say I&apos;m never gonna re-read them. That&apos;s true—but what I&apos;ve found is that when I write on a particular topic, it becomes crystal clear. If I talk about it six months later, it&apos;s still as clear as the day I wrote it. The wonderful part is that I&apos;m not reciting from memory—I&apos;m actually articulating it from my understanding, and the thoughts just flow. All because I wrote it once and thought it through

  Preach! I brute forced my way into enjoying it, and in just 6 months people started complimenting my wording skill. That&apos;s when I realized the bar was far lower than I thought.

  High Tech Engineer here...<br>I used essays as tools for project management my entire career.<br>Even in computer programming, an essay in plain language that describes the project is essential for concept development and for understanding by the entire team.<br>Essays about new technologies are essential for disseminating or adopting new tech.<br>Essays are an important part of intelligent work productivity.<br>---<br>Relative to this video, Essays in the workplace help guide development processes. &nbsp; Essays often begin as bullet points scribbled on a marker board in a meeting room. &nbsp; Team-writing happens.<br>Eventually someone is tasked with compiling the scribbles into a cohesive document, a formal essay. &nbsp;That essay becomes the guiding light of the project.<br><br>It&apos;s IMPORTANT!<br><br>(If y&apos;all use an LLM (AI) to organize the notes, you missed the whole point of the essay process. &nbsp;No learning happens. &nbsp;Plus, creativity gets muddled when fed through a machine. &nbsp;Don&apos;t use machines for creative work, unless you want mechanical results.)

  It&apos;s too bad that teachers and professors don&apos;t explain essays in this way. If they approached education in this way more students might engage more with the process. Grounding and inspiring video. Thanks!! Hope it reaches a huge audience.
