"description": "When writing content, avoid common AI writing patterns that make your output sound artificial. Follow these guidelines:",
"how_to_use": "Rules are tagged with the source they came from and the year. AI tells rotate as models update, so treat the dated vocabulary lists as perishable and the structural rules as durable. Between the 2025 and 2026 research bases below, the overused-vocabulary list turned over almost completely and the em-dash finding reversed outright. Match the underlying habit, not just the words on the list.",

"description": "Don't consistently organize ideas in triplets or use three examples/points. Vary your structural patterns with different numbers of items or asymmetrical organization. This is one of the most heavily measured tells: every major model groups ideas in threes more often than human journalists or novelists do, and ChatGPT does it far more than any other model."
