Screenshot of my laptop, including a donut chart claiming my text is 53% AI generated 10% paraphrased AI and 37% human written text, with a Remove AI button.
Used an online word counter tool for a text I wrote /project I'm involved in. Ad next to it:
"Hey the text you wrote with your own hand looks a bit AI-generated. Use our AI tool to rewrite it, so that it doesn't sound like AI". Yeah right.
