The rise of generative AI has transformed nearly every sector in society--higher education perhaps chief among them. Sidney I. Dobrin's AI and Writing is an indispensable guide to this new landscape, preparing students to use GenAI both responsibly and effectively--skills now essential for academic and career success. It addresses key questions: Can these tools be used ethically? What writing tasks do they best support? Where do they fall short? Rather than chasing ever-changing technical specifics, Dobrin focuses on durable, transferable skills in the context of rapid technological change. He also confronts disquieting ethical issues such as author integrity, plagiarism, copyright, bias, and the material consequences of AI. Discussion questions, writing prompts, and short readings appear throughout.

The second edition includes more classroom activities and exercises for integrating AI across all phases of the writing process. It includes advice on prompt engineering, and material on workplace readiness and platform bias has been expanded.
