I have seen a lot of cursed stuff in my time in academia but this is among the *most* cursed. Grammarly is generating miniature LLMs based on academic work so that users can have their writing ‘reviewed’ by experts like David Abulafia, who died less than two months ago.

@ceaubin.com Right but the main use case of this is going to be getting the LLM of yourself to do your work for you.

That, and academics who feel ignored can pretend to have attention from famous people. 😆
