Prompt against neuroyaz in ChatGPT texts

Prompt to Clean Up ChatGPT-Style Writing

Social media is flooded with posts that scream AI from the very first line. Complex phrasing, pompous language, and clichéd turns of phrase make content feel artificial. Readers sense it immediately, even if they don't know why. To make your text sound human, use a special editing prompt. It removes the typical signs of "AI-speak" and brings your material to life.

A simple prompt works fast: paste your text and get a cleaned-up version. It's a basic tool for authors who generate content with AI.

What is AI-Speak

AI-speak refers to artifacts from neural networks: bureaucratic language, choppy sentences, excessive punctuation. Such texts try to sound smart but end up alienating readers. The author is pleased with the result, but the audience leaves.

The problem lies in the patterns AI copies from its training data. Without editing, posts blend into a gray mass. Cleaning changes that: the text becomes conversational and natural.

Quick Starter Prompt

Start with the basic version. It solves 80% of problems:

Edit this text and remove AI-speak: pompous language, bureaucratic phrasing, "not X, but Y" constructions, choppy phrases, excessive dashes, unnecessary quotes, and the word "this." Make the text simple, lively, and conversational.

Copy it, paste your text after, and run it. The result is clean content without the fluff.

Full Prompt with Rules

For precise work, use the extended version. It breaks down the text point by point. Here it is in full:

Edit the text I send you. Remove all AI-speak from it.

Editing Rules:

1. Remove pompous introductory phrases like "in the modern world," "in today's rapidly changing reality," "nowadays," and similar.

2. Remove negative parallelism and pseudo-drama: "not just..., but...," "this is not..., it is...," "not X, but Y."

3. Eliminate consecutive choppy sentences. The text should flow naturally, like spoken conversation.

4. Minimize the use of long dashes. Use them only where they are truly necessary.

5. Remove unnecessary quotation marks. Keep quotes only where they are essential.

6. Reduce the use of the word "this." Rewrite phrases so the text sounds natural.

7. Remove artificial lists like "firstly, secondly, thirdly" if they aren't needed.

8. Delete bureaucratic constructions: "this approach," "is of great importance," "allows for increased efficiency."

9. Remove empty expert phrases: "it's important to note," "it should be considered," "thus we can conclude."

10. Eliminate hyper-generalizations: "every entrepreneur," "in modern business," "in our time."

11. Simplify redundant formulations. Instead of "an effective strategy for sustainable growth," write simply and clearly.

12. Make the text lively: add a conversational tone, natural transitions, and simple phrasing, as if the author were writing a message to a friend.

13. Preserve the meaning of the text, but rewrite it so it sounds human, not like AI-generated text.

Output only the edited text without any comments.

This prompt preserves the essence but removes all the excess. Test it on your own materials.

Practical Application

Take a text from ChatGPT and run it through the prompt. Before: long-winded constructions and pompousness. After: short sentences, like in a chat.

Example before editing:

"In the modern world, it is important to note that this approach not just allows, but actually increases efficiency."

After:

"This approach increases efficiency."

Such changes make text readable. For blogs and social media, this is a must-have.

• Choose your model: GPT-4 or Claude yield better results.
• Test iteratively: edit 2–3 times for the best outcome.
• Check manually: read it aloud to catch any remaining issues.
• Add a personal touch: insert your own experience for authenticity.

Key Takeaways

• Pompous and bureaucratic language kills engagement: readers leave clichéd texts behind.
• The prompt removes 12 typical errors: from dashes to generalizations.
• The result is lively content: as if written by a human.
• Suitable for blogs and posts: improves engagement in feeds.
• Preserves meaning: editing doesn't change the facts.
