Show HN: AI Slop Detector – 120 patterns that make writing read like AI (github.com)

A new tool called the AI Slop Detector has been released, highlighting 120 writing patterns that contribute to text resembling typical AI-generated content. Organized into nine categories, each pattern includes an explanation, a bad example, and a suggested rewrite. Writers can use this list before drafting or to refine existing text by checking for these patterns, which aim to enhance clarity and human-like quality in writing. Notably, the tool does not differentiate between human and AI authorship; rather, it identifies stylistic issues that both can encounter. This development is significant for the AI/ML community as it addresses the growing concern over the authenticity of text produced by AI systems. By providing a structured method to avoid common "AI slop," the tool encourages better writing practices among users of AI text generators, fostering more engaging and communicative outputs. The availability of a structured data format for implementation and the ability to integrate with platforms like Claude Code and ChatGPT means that developers and writers can easily adapt the skills to their workflows, ultimately improving the quality of AI-assisted content across various applications.
