The Best AI Detection Remover Tools to Use in 2024

We’re already three-quarters of the way done with 2024, and AI models like ChatGPT are becoming much better at writing papers, essays, business plans, and projects.

However, AI-written content is being threatened by AI detection tools. These tools are often relied on by teachers and employers to figure out if a piece is genuinely human-written or machine-generated. But they’re imperfect — and some students will agree, especially the ones whose lives were ruined by TurnItIn.

After using ChatGPT for years, I can almost immediately tell when someone has written something completely using ChatGPT. It just sounds so robotic and lacks any semblance of creativity.

I'm not saying ChatGPT isn't good. It's actually too good. It writes so much better than a normal human does (unless you prompt it in weird/unique ways or when it has the occasional AI hallucination.)

So to generally "remove" the AI from your writing, you literally just have to make it look more human-like. How do you do this? Changing vocabulary, sentence structure, etc.

While I really do appreciate all the detectors and use them to vet my own writers that I hire, I've completely recognized they could be faulty at times, especially when you’re using the wrong one — both false negatives and false positives. Sometimes you're just using ChatGPT to help you get over some writer’s block. That's where these tools will help.

Now I'm not going to claim these are perfect, they are not. Anybody telling you such would be lying. These tools generally help to make your ChatGPT writing more human-like, but every software does have its faults. Here's how to remove AI from your ChatGPT writing:

1) Scramble Your Writing with Undetectable.ai

Undetectable AI stands as a reliable tool for scrambling and paraphrasing human content. It shuffles text quite well, though it may miss the mark slightly with more sophisticated writing (or just rewrite something that doesn't make sense at all. However, it's quick, affordable, and easy. If you need to scramble and create undetectable writing for SEO purposes, try their AI SEO tool (it works a lot better for larger articles, and it's from scratch)

Running the main tool just involves pasting your text and hitting the humanize button. The system processes your request in seconds, and you can check for any detection flags across various detecting platforms.

On a humorous note, expecting an AI model to create content that another AI can't detect is a funky paradox.

Though it may sound counterproductive, the truth remains that any output from an AI like ChatGPT is based on predictable patterns, and AI detection tools are designed to catch them.

2) Try HideMyAI for a Second Scramble

Another tool like Undetectable is HideMyAI. It works almost identically to Undetectable but offers a different engine to rewrite AI writing. You can modify 550 words for free when you register for an account. I've had good levels of success switching between this and UD on different types of writing.

It clearly removes traces of AI both in the readability sense and the detector sense. You'll generally pass a lot more AI detectors and still keep the original meaning of your writing (something these paraphrasing tools can often remove).

You can modify the type of writing (like what vibe you're aiming for), the academic/educational level of reading, and perspective (like I did below). These also pass most of the leading AI detectors.

3) WriteHuman is the New Kid on the Block

I’ve been using Undetectable AI and HideMyAI (the former even more so) for the longest time now, and although I don’t really have any incentive to look for a new tool, I’m always on the lookout for something better.

Spoiler alert: I haven’t found one yet, but I did find a great contender: WriteHuman.

Like the two I mentioned earlier, WriteHuman is an AI bypassing tool. I’ve been using this platform for a while now and I have come to the conclusion that it’s a better writer than Undetectable AI (relies less on adding “human errors” to appear less AI) but is generally more detectable.

Here’s the thing though, it lacks the additional customization features that Undetectable AI and HideMyAI have. You can’t change the use case, modify the readability level, or switch between more human/more AI. It’s just a paraphrasing tool at its core — but one that performs its job well.

4) Paraphrase with QuillBot

I really enjoy using QuillBot to paraphrase articles and essays, but I really only take certain paragraphs with a grain of salt.QuillBot shares Undetectable AI's functionality but with an added feature. QuillBot lets you regenerate sentence structures continuously until they meet your standards.

Although it requires more tinkering, QuillBot provides more flexibility to users, allowing customization in a simple format. Some people actually like adjusting the output within the tool even better.

The only problem that I can see with QuillBot is that, even though it’s free, it doesn’t really hide from AI detection that consistently. You have to remember that it’s a traditional paraphrasing tool, and not an AI bypasser. This means that it focuses more on readability rather than humanizing your text like Undetectable AI and HideMyAI.

5) Manually Scrambling Words

While AI-produced vocabulary may come across as fine, it still possesses a predictable pattern that human writers could exploit to their advantage.

As silly as it sounds, try to literally rewrite anything you get from ChatGPT. If you're trying to use it as inspiration, have a tab open showing it and then take the content and rewrite it as your own. Don't copy, but use it as inspiration. You should also remove some telltale signs of AI writing like overuse of repetitions and certain AI words (delve, utilize, etc.).

This is pretty much the most "sure" way of getting rid of AI detection in a piece of writing, it just takes the most time because you're applying human intuition to all of this.

So, Now What?

With these tools, it is possible to evade detection by these less-than-perfect detectors even in 2024, but at the end of the day only human writing can perfectly evade them.

We're in the middle of a really weird time with AI generation & detection. Though we hear less issues about false positive AI detection now, I’m sure that it’s still a disruptive mess because there’s still no reliable way of identifying human and AI writing. And at this point of uncertainty, it’s really such a shame that students are getting the wrong end of the stick.

What is your take on AI detection issues and detectors? Have you had any of your content wrongly flagged?
