How to make your paper less AI-like

Dear students, the process of reducing AI traces in your paper is essentially a process of regaining control of academic writing. This is not about opposing technology, but about learning to coexist with it — using AI for mechanical tasks and your brain for core thinking. When you no longer regard papers as "assignments to complete," but as "carriers to express your own viewpoints," and are willing to spend time reading original works, polishing viewpoints, and optimizing expression, your writing will naturally exude a unique human touch and academic depth. Remember, what editors and supervisors truly value is not a paper with "zero AI traces," but a work that reflects your thinking ability, creativity, and academic potential. In the future academic world, those who use AI as an auxiliary tool will not be eliminated, but those who over-rely on AI and lose the ability to think independently will. I hope today's sharing helps you find a balance between technology and originality, allowing you to write academic papers that are truly your own and have a soul. Next time, we will analyze critical thinking expression in top journal papers and see how outstanding scholars convey unique viewpoints through words. Stay tuned.
