A number of well-known journalists are finding their names, and presumably their talents, used without permission by Grammarly's AI editing tool. "Instead of producing what looks like a generic critique from a nameless LLM," Wired reported last week (archive), Expert Review "lists a number of real academics and authors available to weigh in on your text. To be clear: Those people have nothing to do with this process." I have no idea where this would land legally. These days, who knows? But it's definitely ethically dubious; there seems to be a difference between 'editing in the style of Jay Rosen' and 'painting in the style of Picasso'. But what that difference is, exactly, is difficult to pin down. What about 'Physics lectures in the style of Richard Feynman'?
