When you have some AI tools saying "if you paste the text, you are wondering about, I can help you rewrite it to sound more natural and human" we are going full circle, aren’t we? What a turnaround!

I just took a peek, and to my surprise, when I started reading I realized after only a couple od sentences everything had been AI generated, I mean the text. It’s either an AI translation or AI-generated marketing articles. It read so unnatural, weird and stiff. It was a printed brochure. I know marketing people use automation and AI a lot, but I never knew they would actually print out something like that. I stopped reading after 3 sentences, as it was so disengaging and terrible to read. I’m 100% sure this marketing campaign was funded by their sponsors whose products are in the leaflet, and then they use AI. Food manufacturers always have a big marketing budget, mind you.
These were not short slogans or tag lines, but actually long engagement articles with narrative structure, which made AI sound even much worse.
