How To Write *Without* Sounding Like AI

Don't sound like AI

If you only have a minute… readers can feel AI writing within a sentence or two, mostly from its patterns: sentences all the same length, paragraphs on the same template, hedging where a position belongs, and lists of three everywhere. So vary your rhythm, get specific, take a position (even a small one), cut the smoothing words, and use the words you'd say out loud.

What if you could become someone who consistently generates life-changing ideas, whenever you want to?

The practice is inspired by a concept from James Altucher called The Idea Machine. I encountered it more than 10 years ago and found it so helpful I already wrote a blog post at that time – How To Become An “Idea Machine” —…
