How to review AI text before publishing

Short answer

Review AI text by looking for generic phrases, missing evidence, unclear audience, weak firsthand signal, and risky claims. The useful question is not whether a detector thinks the text is AI-written, but whether a reader can trust and use it.

Avoid detector theater

AI detector scores can be misleading. A practical publishing review should focus on visible content quality: specificity, evidence, originality, audience fit, and human editing.

  1. Remove boilerplateDelete assistant disclaimers, generic introductions, and vague phrases that do not help the reader.
  2. Add evidenceUse sources, dates, examples, test notes, or firsthand observations where the draft makes factual claims.
  3. Check the audienceA draft for creators, engineers, students, or buyers should make different choices.
  4. Turn claims into tasksUse a checklist so a human can verify the risky parts before publishing.
