Thoughtful piece on "AI" and college essays, from Teen Vogue! (In short: write your own essays, folks. Do you really want to try to sell some contrived bot-version of yourself to a university admissions committee? Of course you don't!) https://www.teenvogue.com/story/ai-college-admissions-essays-chatgpt?fbclid=IwAR2MItC---Tu6AYOlFbI_TgrCqJRoXZkS47tC9NS3yTBlxHNHmIpWVMP7pU

Hello there!

Welcome to Merv Academic, a highly experienced provider of academic services ranging from tutoring and test preparation to academic writing and research mentorship. Named for the ancient Central Asian city of Merv, one of the great cosmopolitan centers of the storied “Silk Road,” Merv was undoubtedly a global center of knowledge and learning, science and literature, trade and exchange, and a fitting if perhaps unconventional metaphor for an academic site that envisions education not merely as a means to an end, but as a magnificent, life-changing journey in itself.
