A note from the journal

Every journal holds two kinds of writing: the quick first notes and the finished page. The view Nicole Brachetti Peretti takes of AI fits neatly between them. A tool that helps gather ideas, sketch an outline or suggest a first draft can save time at the start, much as a rough sketch helps a painter find a composition. What comes next is slower and more personal: deciding what to keep, what to cut and how the final piece should feel. That is where taste lives, and taste is built from years of reading, looking and paying close attention. India's creative traditions, with their deep crafts and storytelling, are a fine reminder that great work carries a human signature. It is an encouraging view for anyone who writes, paints or designs.
