Controversy

Following the Academy Award win for the documentary "Navalny," The Grayzone published an article by Lucy Komisar that criticized the film. The article, which included inaccuracies, was identified as having been generated using Writesonic's AI content software. Lucy Komisar stated that her use of information was derived from the platforms "Chatsonic" capabilities, which were advertised to write content based on Google search results.
