AI Writes Emails, New Tool Makes Them Human
25 Apr
Summary
- A new Chrome extension called Sinceerly can edit AI-generated emails.
- The tool adds typical human errors and removes AI writing tells.
- Sinceerly offers free and paid monthly subscription options.
A peculiar trend in the tech world has surfaced: an AI tool designed to reverse the work of other AI writing assistants. Sinceerly, a Google Chrome extension, modifies AI-generated or human-written emails. Its primary function is to reintroduce typical human errors and eliminate common AI writing patterns, such as the phrase "not just X, but Y." The tool also removes stylistic elements like em dashes, which it flags as an AI indicator.
Sinceerly provides three distinct editing modes: subtle, human, and CEO. These modes progressively make the text more casual, with the "CEO" mode even foregoing correct punctuation and appending "Sent from my iPhone." The extension is available for free for three email rewrites and operates within Gmail. A paid subscription of $4.99 per month grants unlimited rewrites, instant mode switching, and cached results for quick access.
This development, where AI text is generated only to be made more human-like by another AI, highlights a curious paradox. It potentially reflects current public sentiment towards AI-generated content. Notably, in the previous month, major publisher Hachette withdrew the novel 'Shy Girl' due to concerns about its AI generation or poor quality.
