Season words serve as coordinates that fix the time of the scene, and the more unnecessary explanation and metaphor are reduced, the more actively the reader completes the meaning. In particular, an ending that stops with a noun rat…
There is no reason for the humanities to shrink in the age of AI. On the contrary, an attitude that avoids AI tools may leave the humanities behind the times.
