Using ChatGPT as a Reviewer Over a Producer

Use AI after the first act of thought—not instead of it.

The practice

Begin with your own response, then use ChatGPT to test its clarity, structure, and blind spots. The system can become a demanding second reader, but the argument, decisions, and final language should remain yours.

What to carry into your work

01
Draft the central claim before opening the tool.
02
Ask for critique, questions, and alternatives—not a replacement answer.
03
Accept suggestions selectively and rewrite them in your own language.

The ethical question
Can you still explain and defend every decision in the final work?
