A Human Being Wrote This Poem - 9781534552692

Poetry may be the most expressive, emotive form the written word. From sonnets to free verse, humans have long been working through their thoughts, feelings, and experiences through poetry. Today, GenAI could likely create a poem in a snap—but do we want it to? This book invites readers to consider what’s special about a human being writing poetry as well as the pros and cons of using GenAI in the process of creation. Concluding prompts invite readers to write their own poetry without technological aid.
