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 can't even fathom this
Like this level of bullshit is why the Hollywood guilds went on strike, no? And so many people said they were overreacting to AI
How do you even find if your name is on that list?
@evacide I found this tech crunch article mentioning @caseynewton and @timnitGebru were offered experts, but not the full list.
I'm still sitting here exclaiming "wow!"

It was crazy news, and now with
@evacide 's update it's even crazier. It would be so good to put this nonsense to an end. Grammarly has been getting worse and its snowballing.
