Confronting the CEO of the AI company that impersonated me Superhuman CEO Shishir Mehrotra responds to the Grammarly “expert review” controversy, and whether AI is extracting more value than it creates.

Recently, Grammarly shipped a feature called Expert Review, which allowed you to get writing suggestions from AI-cloned “experts,” and reporters at The Verge and other outlets discovered that those experts included us.

So today on Decoder, @reckless.bsky.social is talking with CEO Shishir Mehrotra.

Sure. How much do you think you should pay me to use my name?
It's really important to think about attribution and think about impersonation, and so on. As an expert, you have a trade you make on the internet. The idea is that when you put content out there, myself included, you hope people use it. You want to refer to other people's content.
You want people to link to you. You really, really hope they attribute you when they do. When somebody uses your content, should they attribute you? Of course. And to attribute you, you have to use your name.
There's a different line which is, should people be able to impersonate you? And I think that is a very different standard. And we saw the lawsuit. Respectfully, we believe the claims are without merit. The idea that the feature is impersonation is quite a big stretch. Every mention was very clearly, "This is inspired not only by this person, but also inspired by a specific work from this specific person, with a clear attributed link to get back to them." It's far from that test lof impersonation].

Here’s my interview with Shishir Mehotra, the CEO behind Grammarly’s “expert review” feature which attributed writing advice to people - including me lol - without permission. Or, as you will hear us talk about a lot, compensation. www.theverge.com/podcast/8987...

Do it! Take a long break from doom scrolling and read up on your favorite British shows. Or perhaps find some new favorites.

Reposting this for the afternoon crowd. I've been reading as many short stories as I can make time for, lately. It's SUCH a good way to reduce doomscrolling.

I read this one earlier today, and I just loved it. I want to narrate it for It's Storytime.

As I understand it, Alcott's publisher insisted on Jo being married off, so that would be why you'd get that feeling.
