I know that bad news is coming when a co-worker messages me with "You're gonna be so mad..."

Grammarly has rolled out an AI-powered "expert review" feature where its simulacrum of me makes suggestions for your text. My real edits are usually along the lines of "Throw this into the sea."

@evacide I saw that they're offering an "opt out" feature for experts, but it's still 100% total bullshit that they did this.

@jessamyn @evacide using an opt-out system for a use case where it would have been entirely feasible to ask everyone affected for permission is just incredible assholery

@0xC01DC0FFEE @evacide Absolutely. And from what I heard they only added the opt out after people got rightly furious with it.

@jessamyn @0xC01DC0FFEE @evacide because they knew what the answer would be.

I would like to opt-out of opting out.
