How to Wash the Smell of AI Out of Your Text

AI is very good at writing text that sounds like writing. That doesn’t mean it’s good.

If AI wrote this description, it might urge you to “unleash your inner writer,” “supercharge your text,” or some such nonsense. But this isn’t AI—I promise. It’s me, Sara, a longtime copywriter who wants to share some solid writing tips with you so you can build your very own sentences from scratch. Or, if needed, wash the smell from your AI text.

The goal isn’t to swear off AI. It’s to stop letting it do your thinking.

You’ll leave better at spotting bad writing, more confident in editing AI output, and more comfortable trusting your own words.

Key takeaways:

•    Fire up your empathy and connect with your reader
•    Stop prompting and start persuading 
•    Use your humanness to your advantage
