Why students use style refiner by Litero AI?

Why a Humanizer is Good for AI and Humans

Writing is so necessary that it's very, very easy to overlook how important it is to have text that is not correct but sounds good, and awkward text is possible whether you use AI or not. The idea that we need to humanize AI is not entirely groundbreaking, but programs like these become even more important when we consider how we're all capable of writing odd sentences even without AI. A humanizer helps address rigid text and gives you a fast and easy way to edit your text without much hassle.

What Does It Mean to Humanize a Text?

The simple answer to this is that humanizing a text makes it sound more natural, and this is particularly important if your writing skills are still developing and the AI's vocabulary is a bit too advanced for what you're writing right now. Moreover, sometimes AI-generated text sounds rigid and too direct, and while people can sound like this too, it doesn't mean that awkward sentences are the best way to go. When you humanize a text or use an AI text humanizer, you're searching for phrases that look complicated and maybe longer than necessary, and then you're transforming these odd phrases into simpler ideas, arguments, or statements that match the tone and vocabulary of the average user. The same is true for the inverse where a text is too casual and needs to be more professional. There are many ways to make a text sound more human, and it all depends on the text's intention and its audience.

How Does It Work?

An AI humanizer works by comparing the current text to patterns that match those of AI text, and then it gives you the option of rewriting them or paraphrasing them as necessary. A humanizer is basically an AI to human text translator that identifies phrases that could be AI and gives you options to make it sound more natural. Now, sometimes AI humanizers and AI detectors highlight something that isn't AI or that has nothing wrong with it. What you should do is not to accept any proposed change but rather to think about what that phrase means within the whole text. Sometimes programs like these detect AI text when there isn't any, which can be very frustrating. However, you're still in charge of the writing process, so you get to decide which changes you accept and which ones you reject.

It's Flexible and Prevents Further Issues

One of the best things about using a program to humanize AI text is that it works with you and doesn't force you to make any changes you don't like. When you're using programs like Litero, you can always have it run the AI detector and give you options to humanize your text, email, essay, memo, notes, and any other thing you've written. Even if the options the humanizer gives you don't work, you can always use functions like paraphrasing to have more depth, to be simpler, shorter, more academic, etc. depending on what you need and want. Moreover, you don't have to run an AI detection test just to use the humanizer. Litero gives you the option of humanizing text at any point because it's perfectly possible that yes, that sentence is correct and factual, but it sounds stiff and awkward even though you just wrote it. A humanizer can prevent issues down the line because it's part of the editing process, and with enough practice, you can detect weird-looking phrases that need some changes, allowing you to create better writing and be faster.
