Artificial intelligence has transformed content creation, allowing writers to generate articles quickly and efficiently. However, AI-generated content often lacks the human touch—it can feel robotic, repetitive, or overly structured. We asked Andrew McGinney, founder of TechNetNews.com, to provide us with some tips on tools that can help refine AI-generated writing and make it more human-like. To make your AI-generated content feel more natural and relatable, consider using these strategies that can help add a more conversational tone.

1. Use AI Humanization Tools

One of the easy ways to make AI-written text more human-like is to use tools designed to refine the content and remove AI patterns. Several tools, such as HumanizePro.com, can humanize AI-written content.

These tools can help transform AI-generated text into natural-sounding human content. They adjust sentence structures, add variety, and enhance readability without compromising the original message. Using such tools may significantly reduce AI’s detectability in your content while improving its overall quality.

2. Personalize the Writing Style

AI-generated content tends to be generic. Personalize it by adding your unique voice, opinions, and experiences to make it feel more human.

• Use first-person or second-person pronouns (“I,” “you,” “we”) to create a conversational tone.
• Include anecdotes and real-life examples to make the article relatable.
• Inject emotions and personality—humor, curiosity, or storytelling elements can make a huge difference.

For example, instead of a generic sentence like:
“AI can help businesses generate content faster.”
Try:
“I remember the first time I used AI to write an article—it was fast, but something felt off. That’s when I realized a little human touch was needed to make it engaging.”

3. Vary Sentence Length and Structure

AI writing follows a predictable rhythm, using medium-length sentences without much variation. Humans, however, naturally mix short and long sentences, making the text more dynamic.

• Use a mix of short, punchy sentences and longer, descriptive ones.
• Add rhetorical questions to engage the reader.
• Avoid repetitive phrases and sentence patterns that make AI-generated content sound monotonous.

Example:
AI-written: “Marketing is important for businesses. It helps them grow and reach customers.”
Humanized: “Think about the last time a brand caught your attention. Was it through a clever ad, an engaging blog, or a viral tweet? That’s the power of marketing—it connects, persuades, and ultimately drives business growth.”

4. Add Fluff and Imperfections But Not Too Much!

Humans don’t always write ideally structured sentences. A minor casual imperfection can make your content feel more authentic.

• Use contractions: “you’ll” instead of “you will.”
• Add transitional words like well, so, so, and honestly.
• Break grammar rules occasionally, like starting a sentence with And or But.

However, don’t overdo it—keep a balance so your content remains professional.

5. Fact-Check and Remove AI Mistakes

AI sometimes generates incorrect or misleading information. Always fact-check and correct errors before publishing.

• Verify statistics and references from reliable sources.
• Cross-check dates, names, and historical facts.
• Logical flow—sometimes, AI-generated content repeats ideas or contradicts itself.

6. Use AI-Detection Tools to Check Your Content

Even after making human-like modifications, you should test whether your content still looks AI-generated. You can use several tools to check if an article is written using AI. Examples are GPTZero and Copyleaks AI Detector

These AI-detection tools can help analyze text and highlight sections that seem AI-generated, helping you tweak and refine those areas. They often identify ChatGPT and AI written content and provide a percentage of human vs. AI analysis. 

7. Read Aloud and Get Human Feedback

Sometimes, a great way to help your content sound human is to read it out loud. If it sounds unnatural, revise it. You can also:

• Ask a friend or colleague to read and provide feedback.
• Use text-to-speech tools to hear how the content sounds.
• Take a break and review it later with fresh eyes.

Final Thoughts

AI-generated content can be helpful, but it still requires human refinement to make it engaging and authentic. You can help feel more natural and reader-friendly by using humanization tools like HumanizePro, personalizing your style, and checking your work with GPTZero.

With the proper adjustments, your AI-assisted writing can sound as compelling as content written by a skilled human writer. So, next time you generate AI content, take the extra step to humanize it—you’ll see the difference in engagement and readability!
