Gotta say that this is some extremely creepy language. And the argument basically is... that if the prevent people from treating gender dysphoria (adults, in this case), that they'll just... stop having it? That's not at all how any of this works.

Grammarly Is Facing a Class Action Lawsuit Over Its AI β€˜Expert Review’ Feature The feature, which Grammarly shut down Wednesday, presented editing suggestions as if they came from established authors and academicsβ€”without their consent.

I'm suing Grammarly over its paid AI feature that presented editing suggestions as if they came from me - and many other writers and journalists - without consent.

State law requires consent before someone's name can be used for commercial purposes.

Thanks for the quick responses everyone. I see they claim after pushback it will be taken down, let's keep sending angry emails though. Totally disgusting and because these technologies are so often made and released without guardrails who knows how many versions of this are floating around.

Someone tell Grammerly to exclude us from the narrative - no one wants to be a part of this it's so dystopian and nonconsenual it feels physically gross

From another perspective, this entire administration has been a masterful campaign of destruction laser targeted at american agriculture, for incredibly unclear reasons

Mind-boggling to me. Makes me feel insane. This is not a complicated issue of people "jailbreaking" bots or creatively subverting guardrails. This is a failure of basic text filters.

But then again: this is a self-regulating industry beholden to nothing really but its own TOS

Character.AI Still Hasn't Fixed Its School Shooter Problem We Identified in 2024 Character.AI continues to host chatbots explicitly modeled after real school shooters β€”Β a clear issue Futurism flagged more than a year ago.

In December 2024, we reported that Character.AI was hosting many popular chatbots modeled after real mass killers.

As of today: CAI is *still* hosting dozens of these bots. They're discoverable via simple keyword search, and often housed under killers' full names.

Oh this is definitely me. I was told I'd grow out of my ADHD, I did not. I was not told it would get worse, it absolutely has.

Greens cry foul as Trump administration drops protection for once-rare storks A spindly wading bird found in South Carolina’s wetlands is losing protection under the federal Endangered Species Act.

β€œThe Trump administration is working quickly to remove federal protections from species that [it claims] no longer need them.”

Sickening parallelism here to the admin’s being in a hurry to drop protections for refugees. The facts don’t support these moves in either case.

I don't think grammarly should just get to do "sorry deleting now" after ventriloquizing living and dead people without their consent to make money

The reason I want students to have to struggle with difficult texts is because I want them to have the capacity to make meaning in and of the world on their own.

Missed this from a hearing last week. Rep. Jamie Raskin highlighting Judge Young's finding in AAUP v. Rubio that the Trump admin's policy of targeting student protesters for their pro-Palestinian advocacy is "disingenuous, squalid, and dishonorable."

AI autocomplete doesn’t just change how you write. It changes how you think AI-powered writing tools are increasingly integrated into our e-mails and phones. Now a new study finds biased AI suggestions can sway users’ beliefs

β€œOverall, the study participants who saw the biased AI text shifted their positions toward those espoused by the AI.”

amazing how many aggressively stupid β€œIt’s the Future!” nonsense can be ruled out with just one question:

Kim: The vast majority of what I hear in these classified briefings can be said publicly, but they intentionally do this to as a tactic to be able to prevent the American people from hearing and questioning what it is that they're doing.

They know that the American people do not want a war
