Rhetorical Innovation with AI Integration: A Guide to Finding Your Most Authentic and Engaging Voice, Together with AI addresses the intersection of rhetorical skills and artificial intelligence (AI), focusing on authenticity in the age of digital assistants. This peer-reviewed book emphasizes the importance of one's unique voice and perspective in writing, arguing that while AI can enhance and amplify an individual’s expression, it should never overshadow the human element that makes communication engaging and meaningful.
The content spans a variety of topics such as the cultivation of good ideas, understanding reader engagement, and the role of creativity in both AI-assisted and independent writing endeavors. It delves into the usefulness and structures of writing through traditional and non-traditional forms, while considering organizational strategies and the limitations of AI in capturing human experience and thought.
Appropriate for courses in writing and rhetoric, composition, communication, and multimodal writing, Rhetorical Innovation with AI Integration helps students enhance their authentic voice and perspectives with AI. The book equips readers with strategies to successfully balance technological assistance and personal storytelling, laying the groundwork for enhancing written communication without losing authenticity.
