"He suggested that she write out the full essay with reckless abandon for citing sources: no reference formatting, no concern for straw-manned arguments, accurate quotes, or making sure paraphrases are in her own words. Rather, just write all the ideas down first. Then, upload the essay to ChatGPT and have it run a plagiarism check, finding the sources the draft is referencing."
"She first began writing everything on her own & without AI, so the tone, style, and phrasing were hers alone. Second, while she might be inaccurate or wrong about how she alluded to or referenced sources, all that can be corrected later. Lastly, she had ChatGPT handle the critical & clerical work: suggesting revisions, searching for relevant sources, and helping her integrate them properly into whatever citation style her class required."
A student drafted an entire essay without worrying about citations, reference formatting, or exact paraphrasing. The draft was uploaded to ChatGPT to run a plagiarism check that identified the draft's referenced sources. The identified sources were then reviewed, quoted or cited properly, or excised from the draft. ChatGPT handled clerical tasks such as suggesting revisions, locating relevant sources, and formatting citations to the required style. The approach preserved the student's original tone and phrasing because initial ideas were written without AI influence, while AI reduced friction by performing verification and citation work.
