“Story upon story, and generation upon generation are embedded in the land—earth baked into tablets that record our first writings, the humus that makes us human, and the rare earths that are gathered and shaped into large language models. What is at stake is each other, our selves, our home, and what’s best in our humanity, including our capacity to think, feel, and connect deeply. We are tiny manifestations of Earth’s generativity, and it is our birthright to participate in the regenerative cycle of the cosmos, creativity. Generating your own words matters because writing isn’t just something you do with your body. Writing is something you do with the Earth.”
