AI English: Humans, Machines, and the Future of Writing
Professor Laura Aull is an internationally recognized scholar in writing studies and linguistics, known for her corpus-based research on stance, generality, and knowledge construction in academic writing. Her forthcoming book, AI English: Humans, Machines, and the Future of Writing (Cambridge University Press), examines linguistic patterns distinguishing human and AI-generated texts and explores their implications for writing pedagogy.
