Writes and Write-nots

Writing is inherently difficult. In his recent essay Paul Graham argues that in about 20 years not many people will possess strong writing skills delegating the job to AI in professional and educational settings. This will divide a world into writes and write-nots without the middle ground. Will it be a world of thinks and think-nots bearing in mind that writing requires clear thinking?

Some words and phrases have become red flags for research writers as they pop up as AI-generated content.

Why did it happen?
The answer lies in the way AI models are trained. They are mostly fed on the texts from books, articles, and websites that feature the same formal vocabulary and patterns. Consistency is the AI strength and weakness. Interestingly, some research writers share this feature sticking to what they know to work, and  repetitively use certain words and phrases.

What to do?
Avoid predictability by diversifying your language. Overused repeated patterns result in an AI detector's educated guess that a text might not be entirely human and in the text becoming almost meaningless.

Hyphen (-) joins two or more words to show that they have a combined meaning.

Examples: three-digit, low-to-middle-income, real-world, self-correction, school-like environment, charge-discharge efficiency
