Now there's an AI tool that adds typos into your emails — so it looks like you didn't use AI (www.businessinsider.com)

A new Chrome plugin called "Sinceerly" has emerged, allowing users to intentionally insert typos into their AI-generated emails. Developed by Harvard Business School student Ben Horwitz, this tool addresses a surprising shift in email etiquette where typos are now perceived as a status symbol, reflecting a more personal touch compared to the sterile perfection often associated with AI writing. Users can choose from three modes—"Subtle," "Human," and "CEO"—each providing different levels of brevity and error, effectively mimicking human typing flaws. This innovation is significant for the AI/ML community as it highlights the evolving perceptions of digital communication and the growing scrutiny around AI-generated content. As more people turn to AI tools for writing assistance, the expectation for flawless grammar may inadvertently signal a lack of originality. Horwitz, inspired by his own typing struggles, designed Sinceerly partly as a playful response to the influx of AI in everyday correspondence. As the integration of AI continues to shift cultural norms, tools like Sinceerly may soon become a staple for those looking to reclaim a sense of authenticity in their communications.
