Grammarly is using our identities without permission Grammarly’s AI stole my boss’s identity.

Somewhere between kool-aid drinking arrogance and callous greed, Grammarly slapped the names of professional writers and editors on mediocrity without asking and somehow thought everyone would be grateful. www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...

There's a Grim New Expression: "AI;DR" The slang is a sign of how overrun the internet is with AI slop β€” and how the real humans using it are fed up.

The Biggest Star of the Super Bowl Isn’t an Athleteβ€”or Bad Bunny We’ve seen this game before, and it doesn’t end well for anyone.

happy Super Bowl Sunday! for all you commercials sickos, I make the case that this game's ad blitz will be to A.I. what 2022's was to crypto and 2000's was to the dot-com boomβ€”with all attendant implications for our broader economy and the celebrity-promotion complex: slate.com/technology/2...

Disney's deal with OpenAl appears to sanction its theft of our work and cedes the value of what we create to a tech company that has built its business off our backs. We will meet with Disney to probe the terms of this deal, including the extent to which user-generated videos use the work of WGA members. We will continue to fight to protect our members' creative and economic interests in the context of Al technology.
