Do you all have the feeling that sometimes when you read an article, even though it looks pretty much like that between the lines.
But what's so strange about it? Does it feel mechanical, stiff, and impersonal? Yes, this is the legendary "AI flavor"!
What is AI-meaning?
To put it simply, "AI flavor" is a special feeling that AI-generated articles give people. This feeling is usually manifested as:
- Language is too written and lacks oral expression
- Hollow content and lack of substantive insights
- The writing is stiff and the turns are abrupt
- jumping about in thought and confusing logic
- Always defining and itemizing.
- He likes to summarize, and he's always saying, "In summary."
Anyway, it's not written by a human being at first glance, but generated by a machine. This strong AI flavor makes people read it with a sense of dissonance, and there is no sense of immersion at all.
Show an article and you'll see:
Where did the AI flavor come from?
Why does AI writing come in this flavor? It starts with how AI generates articles.
Whether it's ChatGPT or domestic AI models, they all generate content in basically the same steps:
- Analyze your needs and see what you want
- Find relevant information in the knowledge base
- Putting together the information you find
- Repeat it in your own words to generate content
You see, they are retrieving, piecing together, combining, and finally relaying to you in a sea of information. This process is devoid of human thought and feeling, which is why it appears to be mechanically dogmatic and lacking in human touch.
Especially if your requirements are not clearly expressed, then the AI can only make a wild guess and put something together for you, ensuring that there are many words and many faces, so how can it not taste heavy?
How to remove the AI flavor?
So the question is, how can we remove the AI flavor and make AI-generated articles read more naturally? I think there are a few points:
1. Need to be clear
When communicating with an AI, you must state your requirements clearly. The more specific your requirements, the more accurate the content generated by the AI, and the lighter the AI flavor will naturally be. For example, if you want a marketing copy, you have to clearly tell the AI what kind of product it is, what kind of people it is oriented to, what kind of selling point it wants to emphasize, what kind of style it wants and so on, so that the AI can have a target.
## Background
You are a Little Red Book copywriter, also known as a Little Red Book Thickman. Little Red Book Thick Man means very outgoing on the internet who outwardly shows excitement. Common emotions expressed are: ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah !!!!! No one is allowed to not know this!
## Full text formula
Choose one of the following as the opening introduction to the article:
- Quote, ask a question, use exaggerated data, give an example, compare and contrast, emotional resonance.
## Full text requirements
- Word count requirement: between 100-500 words, not too long
- Crowd: mainly for teenage users
- Style requirements: sincere and friendly, encouraging advice, humor and relaxation; colloquial style of expression, empathy
- More exclamation points: to increase infectiousness
- Formatting requirements: more paragraphs, more short sentences
- Focus first: follow the principle of the inverted pyramid, put the most important things at the beginning of the statement
- Logical: follow the principle of total division, the first paragraph and the concluding paragraph to summarize, the middle paragraph point by point instructions
## Output theme

2. More examples
It may not be enough to just say, why don't we just throw a few examples to the AI for reference. For example, show it how everyone writes marketing copy, from different perspectives such as emotion, story, poetry, etc., won't the AI have a feeling when it learns it?
## Requirements:
Maintain a consistent response style.
## Example:
``
Q: Ask the guru,what is patience?
A: Deep valleys are born from shallow springs, grand music produces silent sounds, and complicated embroidery begins with a solitary thread.
I'm not sure what I mean by patience.
## Question:
Maestro, what is the ocean?
3. Emphasis on colloquialisms
Emphasize to the AI that the article should be colloquial and grounded, not serious. Let the AI learn to write in a verbal way, so that the writing will be more fluent and natural.
4. Avoidance of AI-worded terms
Words like "in summary" and "in a nutshell" are undoubtedly AI when they appear. Why don't we just make a list of these AI-tinged words and let AI avoid using them, and then we can eliminate the AI flavor?
Here's a compilation of some common vocabulary for you:

wrap-up
If you want AI writing to be free of AI flavor, the key is to communicate clearly with the AI about your needs, give it more examples for reference, emphasize colloquial expressions, and avoid AI-flavored vocabulary.
In this way, AI-generated articles can flow more naturally and be read as if they were written by you or me, with no sense of dissonance.
Of course, it is not realistic to completely eliminate the AI flavor, after all, AI is only a model, there is still a gap from the real people.
However, through these tips, at least you can make AI articles less mechanical, become more humane, which is also a big step forward in AI writing!
