Grammarly Is Facing a Class Action Lawsuit Over Its AI ‘Expert Review’ Feature The feature, which Grammarly shut down Wednesday, presented editing suggestions as if they came from established authors and academics—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.

“Misty Woods”, an 18”x24” oil painting of a dark, closed-in forest with breaks of sunlight and fog. Streaks of light shine through the dense canopy as a small, hidden feline watches the surroundings from a safe enclosure.

Forest on a snowy light.

On a dark night, in a cold place, I am grateful for light.

A watercolour painting I did of a path winding off into the distance. The light is that of a hazy winter afternoon. Either sides of the path on the horizon are what looks like hills that form a valley, the sky colour on the right is a warm yellow sky as the sun dips behind the hill. The light is hazy, and suggests the time of day is in the afternoon, the sky colour on the left still has hints of blue. This is watercolour, then touched up with acrylic.

Swatch card for the botanic tile pattern
I created for author Idris Grey. Swatch card is a rectangle with the title and stamp logo on the lower right side. Inside the frame is the pattern large scale. The swatch card is on top of the pattern at a smaller scale. Pattern is in tones of muted deep lavender, dark navy, warm blue and creamy beige taupe. The pattern is a mosaics of tiles in alternating colours with vignettes of abstract botanics and fruit illustrations. Fruit illustrations include a pear, a strawberry, a pair of cherries and a pair of peaches. The botanic abstracts are symmetrical and inspired by tin tile ceilings and florals including daisies.

Low level platform with train looking towards historic entrance of station

Arriving in Antwerp by train is always a pleasure.
Tip - if you have luggage and arrive on low level when the escalator is broken then walk towards entrance and take the lift at the end of the platform.

I really hope there is a huge lawsuit to put this issue to bed once and for all. It used to be common knowledge that you can't just use someone's name and likeness to promote your business without permission. When did we stop enforcing right of publicity? AI doesn't introduce any shades of gray here

The last 2 years I changed my internet diet to cut out all short form video content and most short form text content, replacing it with long form videos, newsletters, podcasts, joining niche communities and groups, and playing games with my partner.

The intensity and vividness of the colours in this window were achieved through the emulation of medieval techniques.

Painting en plein air at #TannersWines in #Shrewsbury! There’s nothing like capturing this historic timber-framed landmark on location. I had to hide in the shade - direct sun on the paper makes judging colours impossible!
Finished piece coming next.

I will not be using the Human Authored mark on any of my books.

Mainly because these people who are so-called champions of human art are using AI.

Work in progress oil painting. a woman looking at her left, she's wearing a dress, her shoulders are bare, she's floating above some stairs. There is a city shrouded in the mist behind her.

I'm so slow with my new works, sorry. Here's one of my wips. I have no idea what I'm doing, lol
