Oh, okay, maybe not shame so much as butt-covering.
🔗 linkblog: Grammarly says it will stop using AI to clone experts without permission
Oh look, they are capable of shame.
🔗 linkblog: Grammarly will keep using authors’ identities without permission unless they opt out
Opt out is a terrible way of doing this. I’m so angry that I didn’t even finish the article before posting.

Wild escalation of digital labor issues in generative AI.
🔗 linkblog: AI Checkers Forcing Kids To Write Like A Robot To Avoid Being Called A Robot'

I knew my distrust of spellcheck would be validated one day! Seriously, though, this is bad news.
🔗 linkblog: Google Docs will start nudging some users to write less dumbly - The Verge'
Nooooo thank you. Don’t like this about Grammarly, don’t like this about Word, won’t like this about Google Docs. I am very skeptical of giving algorithms authority over style.
