  1. 0:00Most people try to fix AI flops after
  2. 0:02Claude is done. That's the wrong time.
  3. 0:04The fix happens before Claude writes a
  4. 0:06single word. That's what this video is
  5. 0:08about. Give me 6 minutes. You'll never
  6. 0:09have to type humanize this into Claude
  7. 0:12again. Okay, so before we build
  8. 0:14anything, let me show you what we're
  9. 0:15actually dealing with [music] here. Open
  10. 0:17Claude. Ask it, "Write a LinkedIn post
  11. 0:19about using AI to save time." Here's
  12. 0:21what comes back. See that? In today's
  13. 0:22fast-paced world, three M dashes, a
  14. 0:24conclusion that starts with ultimately,
  15. 0:26polished, safe, completely
  16. 0:28fake-sounding. That's what Claude does
  17. 0:30without [music] a system. Typing
  18. 0:32humanize this after the fact doesn't fix
  19. 0:34it because Claude is still guessing what
  20. 0:35human [music] means to you. What you
  21. 0:37need is a filter, something that shows a
  22. 0:39Claude what AI writing looks like before
  23. 0:41it starts, so it [music] knows exactly
  24. 0:43what to avoid. Here's how to build it.
  25. 0:45Step one, research AI writing patterns.
  26. 0:48Open Chat GPT deep research. It pulls
  27. 0:51from multiple sources at once and goes
  28. 0:52deep fast. Ask it to find [music]
  29. 0:54everything about how AI writes. Common
  30. 0:56AI words, overused phrases, robotic
  31. 0:59sentence structures, big professional
  32. 1:01tone, LinkedIn [music] AI language, weak
  33. 1:03introductions, empty transitions,
  34. 1:05generic conclusions. Here's the prompt.
  35. 1:07Do a deep research on common AI writing
  36. 1:09patterns. Find every [music] word,
  37. 1:11phrase, and sentence pattern that keeps
  38. 1:13showing up in AI content, LinkedIn
  39. 1:15posts, emails, YouTube scripts, blog
  40. 1:18articles, all of it. Leave nothing out.
  41. 1:20Hit send and let it run.
  42. 1:28You want a serious document, 20 to 50
  43. 1:30pages. This is the foundation of the
  44. 1:31whole system. Step two, [music] build
  45. 1:33the word document. Organize everything
  46. 1:35into sections. Common AI words, AI
  47. 1:38sentence patterns, AI email habits, AI
  48. 1:40LinkedIn habits, AI YouTube script
  49. 1:42habits, weak introductions, weak
  50. 1:44conclusions, human alternatives, natural
  51. 1:47sentence rhythm, conversational
  52. 1:48examples.
  53. 1:59You're building a blacklist I reference
  54. 2:01Claude checks against before writing
  55. 2:03anything. Step three, add outside
  56. 2:05references. Search online for articles
  57. 2:07about AI generated writing and what
  58. 2:08makes it feel fake. Wikipedia works too.
  59. 2:11Search AI writing or AI generated text.
  60. 2:13[music] Take useful notes, save source
  61. 2:15links, keep the document clean.
  62. 2:24Step four, convert to markdown. [music]
  63. 2:26Open the Word document, upload it into
  64. 2:28Google Docs.
  65. 2:38Click file, [music] download, choose
  66. 2:40markdown, save it as anti-ai-writing.md.
  67. 2:44That file is what we upload into Claude.
  68. 2:46Step [music] five, test Claude before
  69. 2:48and after. Open Claude, ask, "Write a
  70. 2:51LinkedIn post about using AI to [music]
  71. 2:53save time."
  72. 3:08Keep that output [music] on screen. Now,
  73. 3:10upload your anti-ai-writing.md
  74. 3:12file. Ask the same question again and
  75. 3:14add, [music] "Write the response without
  76. 3:16using any words, tone, structure, or
  77. 3:19writing patterns listed in this file."
  78. 3:35Look at the difference. The first one,
  79. 3:37polished, safe, suspicious. Sounds
  80. 3:39impressive until you read it twice. The
  81. 3:41second one, sharper, less constructed.
  82. 3:43The tone relaxes. It actually sounds
  83. 3:45like a person wrote it. Most people stop
  84. 3:47here and think that's [music] the
  85. 3:48system. It's not. This is just a test.
  86. 3:51The real setup is the next step. Step
  87. 3:53six, turn it into a Claude skill. Open
  88. 3:55Claude, go to customize, go to skills,
  89. 3:57[music] turn on skill creator, create a
  90. 3:59new skill, name it anti-AI writing,
  91. 4:01upload your anti-AI writing.md
  92. 4:04file, write the skill instructions. Tell
  93. 4:06Claude to avoid all listed AI words,
  94. 4:08[music] avoid robotic sentence reading,
  95. 4:10avoid fake professional tone, avoid
  96. 4:13overused internet phrases, keep natural
  97. 4:15conversational flow, preserve the
  98. 4:16original meaning, remove filler, check
  99. 4:18every response [music] against the
  100. 4:20anti-AI writing file before finishing.
  101. 4:22Save it, enable it, test it. To call it,
  102. 4:24type dollar in the chat window and
  103. 4:26select anti-AI writing. Claude writes
  104. 4:28with the filter already active. No
  105. 4:30uploading, no repeating [music]
  106. 4:32instructions, it just runs. If the
  107. 4:33output still feels off after setup, go
  108. 4:35back into the instructions and tighten
  109. 4:37them. Without the skill, you open
  110. 4:39Claude, hunt for the file, upload it,
  111. 4:41then start. Half the time you forget.
  112. 4:43With the skill active, [music] you just
  113. 4:44write. Claude already has the filter
  114. 4:46loaded. Every chat, every session. Now,
  115. 4:48here's why this works when humanize this
  116. 4:50never did. Every time you type that,
  117. 4:52Claude had no reference point. It just
  118. 4:53rewrote the same content [music] with
  119. 4:55slightly softer words. Nothing changed
  120. 4:57because nothing told it what change
  121. 4:59looked like. This system gives it that,
  122. 5:01a document full of patterns to avoid, a
  123. 5:03skill that loads those rules
  124. 5:04automatically. Claude stops guessing and
  125. 5:06starts filtering and it works [music]
  126. 5:08everywhere. LinkedIn, emails, YouTube
  127. 5:10scripts, blog posts, the cold formal
  128. 5:12tone disappears. That stiff sign-off
  129. 5:14nobody actually says in real life,
  130. 5:16[music] gone. What's left sounds like
  131. 5:18you wrote it. Use the skill inside
  132. 5:19Claude chat, Claude core, Claude quote,
  133. 5:21every session. One setup, better [music]
  134. 5:23writing every time. Believe once, use it
  135. 5:25forever. Like and share this with
  136. 5:27someone still typing [music] humanize
  137. 5:29this into Claude. Subscribe if you want
  138. 5:30more of this. That's it from me. Go make
  139. 5:32Claude useful.
