Miguel Afonso Caetano"It’s true that citing the names of specific people can be a powerful way of shaping an LLM’s response. Plenty of prompts start by telling Claude something like, “You are ________, the world’s leading expert in ___________.” You could ask ChatGPT: “Rewrite this essay in a spare, understated style using clear, direct language and short sentences, favoring simple vocabulary over ornate phrasing, emphasizing concrete details and action over explanation, avoiding abstraction and sentimentality, and conveying emotional depth indirectly through precise, unadorned prose.” Or you could just type “Rewrite this like Ernest Hemingway” and save some keystrokes.1
But does that LLM’s response mean the Hemingway estate is now owed money? And does Grammarly saying “This suggestion is inspired by Joshua Benton’s ‘Nieman Journalism Lab analyses'” mean Mehrotra owes me a steak dinner?
Check out the full Decoder episode to hear their vigorous back-and-forth over how, as Patel puts it, “people don’t understand the difference between copyrights and trademarks and names and likeness,” and that “AI is collapsing those differences faster than ever before.”"

The Atlantic's Kaitlyn Tiffany explores Grammarly's controversial "Expert Review" feature, before it was shut down. She attempts to discover what it would be like to be edited by herself, what tweaks other famous writers would perhaps suggest and whether the creative writing industry should be concerned about being replaced.
