Tip: 5 red flags to avoid when creating AI-generated content đźš©

AI is a fantastic tool for creating content at scale. But if you don’t avoid these 5 red flags, you’re the real tool.

1. “As an AI language model…”

The amount of blogs, reviews, and even published academic journals that include this tell-tale phrase is alarming. Remove it before publishing or face our eternal wrath.

2. Unnecessary waffle

Good writing is succinct. Hemingway once wrote a tear-jerking 6-word story. So when editing AI-generated content, cut the crap. There’s often a lot of it.

3. Statements instead of explanations

AI can fall into the trap of making endless statements. “The sun is hot, so you should wear sunscreen.” But why, exactly? And why should the reader care? Watch out for series of statements with no clear explanations.

4. No links

AI tools can’t yet add in-text links to their sources. Even if a fact they’ve included is correct (which it may not be), you still need to find the OG source and add links.

5. Repetitive cadences

Unless you’ve specified how you want to write—not just what—then AI-generated content can have an incredibly dull, repetitive cadence. The solution? Ask your AI tool to mimic the lessons shared by Gary Provost in the image below.
