I have seen a lot of cursed stuff in my time in academia but this is among the *most* cursed.
Grammarly is generating miniature LLMs based on academic work so that users can have their writing ‘reviewed’ by experts like David Abulafia, who died less than two months ago.

Can’t believe this. He was a big part of my following chess again over the last 2.5 years. An unbelievable educator, brilliant commentator and incredibly passionate chess fan

Both Karaganov and Trenin have gone off the deep end ages ago. Will still read the book, but don't think I can take it seriously for my research

4.5/7 in the end. Not great, but respectable for the first tournament, coming 9th out of 42
