Abstract
The main objective of this exercise is for students to facilitate speech-building alongside artificial intelligence. In this exercise, students will resourcefully use AI as a comparison tool to help them see what to include in the introductions of speeches as well as what not to include. Students will learn that the personalization of speech writing cannot be done through AI. Using AI, we can help students develop speech layouts and precisely format wording to be more informative and persuasive (Yang et al., 2022). However, AI cannot create the human element of interpersonal connection (Lui & Ren, 2022), or the effective and needed elements of speech organization (Lucas, 2019). This exercise will have participants build speeches using both AI and their knowledge which will allow them to see the shortcomings of artificial intelligence but will increase their clarity on the topic, correct organization, and the need for personalized, human creativity for speech building. AI builds speeches in a general, cookie-cutter way and this exercise will solidify the need for a) professors/instructors teaching speech courses, and b) students using AI only as a secondary source, not a primary.
