If you are a human being, you have to stop using certain words in your everyday vocabulary or risk sounding like a chatbot.
That’s right. AI chatbots love peppering their texts with highly formal adjectives—we found and listed the 100 most common AI adjectives below.
These descriptive words are so deeply ingrained in generative artificial intelligence to the point where they are now deemed to be ‘AI adjectives’.
1. Transformative
This word isn’t even recognized in many text processors nor does it appear in older dictionaries, yet it’s still a top pick.
