Why would anyone be "unbiased" in this situation and why would you care what this hypothetical, emotionless weirdo would have to say?

Same job. Your admin won't let you do this but chatgpt is better at MODELING basic academic writing (which is increasingly what is being demanded in testing) than your instructional coaches who are trying to teach you cute tricks and stylistic flourishes that the test evaluator will just draw a line through immediately (as will college professors later on).

Here's the process: feed the AI the contents of the prewriting--the central idea and a number of supporting details, arguments, or pieces of evidence. The AI will synthesize this content into a paragraph. No bells and whistles and perfect structure, grammar, conventions. It is a wonderful exemplar to use to demonstrate how easy and formulaic academic writing really is (something that most educators really aren't good at or knowledgeable of).

My view is that we learn to write by reading examples of good writing and imitating them...writing and reading going hand in hand so the more opportunities students have to see examples of what their output should look like the better off they are.
