“We assume professionals use certain resources and abstain from using others. A carpenter doesn’t hide his use of a hammer, neither does a cook hide his use of a can-opener. However, if a homemaker dresses up a bakery cake such that it appears she made it herself, and if she accepts compliments on the cake without qualification, she is guilty of deception. Similarly, if a classical Christian school—an institution that promotes itself as a place where thinking and writing are taught well—decides to outsource their thinking and writing to robots, that school no longer deserves to be taken seriously. Can anyone at your school write? If so, pay them to write your copy. If not, tell parents. I’m sure they’d like to know before signing reenrollment forms.”
