       2nd Source: What Students Are Saying About Learning to Write in the Age of A.I. - The New York Times

Analysis: Through this opinionated article, Bruni’s goal was to give to different and also sharing views of AI and the necessity of being able to write through the opinions of high school students. This source brings us to the larger questions we face now with AI taking over the way humans think and create new ideas.

       3rd Source: The Importance Of Integrity In Personal And Professional Life

Analysis:  Rachel Burgess editorial article serves the purpose to not just give a definition of integrity but to show its principle. How integrity not only shows one's character but builds their moral values; whether they succeed in life (general guide of one's pathway in life). This editorial article is ultimately the opinion of Burgess published by BRAINZ. But it's a very universal and important opinion that we shouldn’t just bypass because integrity does play a huge role in our lives despite circumstances. 

When it comes to writing and technology, integrity is very significant. Whether you're writing for high school or even papers in college. Integrity isn’t something that’s taken lightly. Personally, it's a core value that’s been instilled in my brain since middle school. So, when it comes to the use of AI and technology in our writing. It’s important to still hold these moral values in our writings and ideas.
