Grammarly

“You used Grammarly for NLP (natural language processing) errors, I.e. to point out natural errors and draw attention to the mistake. There is a notable distinction in publishing/ editing regarding these 2 routes of AI usage.”

“Your book did absolutely use AI both in your research and with Grammarly. But I don’t think that’s what people meant.”

“Yeah so grammarly uses AI to do all of that. So basically you used AI to write the novel and are now baffled people are accusing you of using AI to write your novel. Lmao.”

“When using grammarly or other software, are you looking for synonym options for different words OR are you having the program rewrite the sentence or phrase for you?”

“I dunno if this is relevant, but I work as a freelance editor, and I've had clients "edit their book with grammarly" and when I get it I can tell -- because it reads like an AI wrote it. This is especially apparent if I've worked with the author before and I know their style”

“Both Microsoft Word and Grammarly have AI integrated into the software / websites. The second AI touches anything, it triggers a notification for AI-generation.”

“Grammarly is AI. And you use AI for research. Seems pretty clearly human/AI mixed to me.”

“Idk about grammarly, but I was using a similar program and the rearranged sentences never made any sense. Not even that it was a bad choice, most of the time it wasn’t even a complete sentence anymore!”

“Second, I am laughing because my little Grammarly G bubble is in this reply window, letting me know I have errors. Don't worry, I am ignoring them.”

“Texting oomf while using Grammarly at the same time. My texts got mixed up, and now I’m so embarrassed lol. I thought I’d need Twitter to compensate for the embarrassment”

“Same way grammarly or spellcheck works on word.”

“Grammarly is fine, just don't use the sentence rearrangement one tho. Like it tells you to write a sentence in a better way, don't use that one.”

“That is what is being flagged, there are almost always several grammatically correct ways to write something; Grammarly, like all AI, falls into detectable patterns when making those choices.”

“If someone to use Grammarly on the paid version where it smooths out the words (or however they call it) then it'll start to twig people with a keen eye for AI because, well, it's using AI models to rewrite.”

“I will say if you use the grammarly to rephrase anything it will trigger them even though you aren't actually using AI in this case. And it's honestly so annoying you can only really use grammarly to fix individual words or spelling mistakes.”

“I use Word and Grammarly for my writing and only use AI for research.”

“Don't pay for Grammarly, use LanguageTool”

“rememeber early grammarly when like it, in hindsight, was obvious they were using an early AI prototype and it sucked ass and if you used it you were an idiot”

“Copied that documentation to Grammarly and they said 0 AI detected.”

“I always laugh whenever I go to edit a @readwise quote to leave a note, and Grammarly absolutely obliterates the author's original language and sentence structure.”

“My grammar improved with Grammarly. If it flagged I would consider it.”

“Basically wiring it to function like grammarly.”

“Ask if your department has Read&Write. It’s not the same as Grammarly but it has some similar features.”

“I had grammarly before the LLMs being the thing they are now. Professors are just resisting something they cannot for no reason giving a generation headache.”

“i would not trust Grammarly humanizer and detector even a bit because it already has the reputation of not being a good tool.”
