Ho no, I used the reformating and rewording machine to do something that I was doing for years and still suck at doing. I can’t write a legible well formated sentence to save my life. I just feed it whatever it needs to say, it plays it’s magic and get something that looks understandable to my coworkers.
Okay I am exaggerating, but I really struggle to be either concise and this helps me.
This comment completelt encapsulates what is wrong. MLA essays? The format is going to die? You have issues with shitty teachers, where are there problems due to the systems in place, you are alright with AI taking away an important human experience? Like come on. Can we stop using AI and critically think for a bit.
I had the same experience, but I recently helped my sister with a homework essay and she had a full page with the exact requirements and how they were graded.
90% of the points were for content, the types of arguments, proper structure and such. Only 10% were for spelling and punctuation.
Meaning she could hand in a complete mess, but as long as her argument was solid and she divided the introduction, arguments and conclusion into paragraphs, she’d still get a 9/10. No grumpy teachers docking half her grade for a few commas.
She gets similar detailed instructions for every subject where I used to struggle with vague assignments like “give a good presentation”. It was so bad sometimes, the teacher let the class grade each other.
If that report and paperwork is inane, rat race stuff, i won’t be as hard. But if that is part of school work, you’re mentally cooked then.

But this is a problem with society. AI won’t fix this at all. It will just exacerbate the issue.
