Has this ever happened to you? You write a message with the help of AI and forget to delete the original line:

“Here’s a revised version of your message…”

Pro tip for AI users, using ChatGPT as example. Add the following to ChatGPT’s “custom instructions”:

“Mark the introduction paragraph where you explain what you’ve done clearly, separated at the top with the line
⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

And at the end with the line
⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️”

This way, the raw AI output stays clearly separated from your own work, keeping your message both human and professional. You may need to add this in all languages you use with chatgpt.
