Calling bullshit on "AI giveaway phrases"

These articles get shared often by my English teacher colleagues:
"These words make it obvious that your text was written by AI".
I looked through the list & call bullshit.
I - & many of my colleagues - taught most of these phrases to IELTS learners.
There are no shortcuts to learning writing. No "skeleton keys" to detecting machine writing, either.
If you can't see that by stigmatising "AI phrases" you stigmatise learner interlanguage - then you don't really "get" learning, human or machine.
