The author says AI has changed how people write so much that they now delete perfectly good punctuation to avoid looking like ChatGPT.
- The thread lists common “AI tells” in writing, such as overused words like “delve”, sentence starters like “certainly” or “absolutely,” and openings such as “in today’s fast-paced world…”
- It also criticizes repeated structures like “not only... but also...”, overly even paragraph lengths, and filler phrases like “it’s important to note that…”
- The overall advice is to make writing sound more human by being direct, varied, and less formulaic.
