Let’s jump right into it, shall we, fellow human?

Here are dead giveaways of lazy AI copy-pasta:

  1. When Your Headlines Look Like This I Know It’s Bad AI

2. “Not only… but also…”

3. “delve” (no human uses it)

4. Ethical Implications, Continuous Learning wombo combo

5. EMOJIS + Hashtags. Because you’re not good enough at prompting to remove them.

Honest question: do you really think you can fool humans with that lazy copy pasta?

And do you know how much it’s damaging your brand?

Part 2

How to use AI properly:

1. DON’T copy-paste. Use the AI as a draft, change it to sound human.

2. Prompt better.

3. Use a different model, like Claude or Gemini. They have a more “human voice”.

4. Can you PLEASE remove the rocketship emojis or fix your prompts? I can teach you for free.

5. Just spend 30 seconds to read what you got and learn what “AI hallucinations” are.

It might save your career.

Takeaways: it’s not the fault of AI, but of lazy humans.

It’s a great tool, for smart people.
