"I'm glad this letter reached you before you fed that assignment prompt from your Creative Writing professor into ChatGPT. I'd like to share some ideas that may be helpful as you decide whether to follow through on that plan. First of all, I'm sorry you've been finding the poetry unit of Introduction to Creative Writing so tedious and uninspiring. It's true that you probably won't be writing much poetry in your future career."
"Sure, you know your professor has forbidden the use of artificial intelligence (AI), but you also know she will not be able to definitively prove your guilt (even if she suspects it). All you need to do is copy and paste the assignment prompt into the chatbot, maybe introduce a few typos to throw your professor off the scent, and you'll be done with this assignment in minutes, free to use your time however you please."
A student faces the temptation to use ChatGPT to complete a poetry assignment quickly and with low risk of detection. Free large language models can produce poems likely to earn at least a passing grade. The professor forbids AI use, but definitive proof of misuse is uncertain. The student could paste the prompt into a chatbot and add minor typos to evade suspicion and finish the task in minutes. Three reasons emphasize exercising personal creativity rather than concerns about morality, grades, career prospects, detection risk, environmental impact, poets' rights in model training, or academic integrity.
