This site explores the philosophy of writing in the age of AI, not as advocacy or opposition, but as genuine inquiry into questions about authorship, creativity, and what writing means when machines can do it too. The essays provide context people haven't considered and let them draw their own conclusions.

About the writing
This site should be transparent about its process: these essays are written in collaboration with AI (specifically Claude by Anthropic). Chris develops the editorial direction, the ideas, and the arguments; the AI produces the prose; and the result is shaped through conversation and revision. This is, of course, exactly the kind of arrangement the essays themselves examine.
