She provides examples from brands, job seekers, and CEOs who strategically use mistakes to show authenticity.

"proof of human touch"
Typos have become a sign of intelligence. Spending hours writing something only to discover an error moments after you've hit send is one of life's universal experiences. But no, it's nothing to be ashamed of. Brands are sending out emails with typos in the subject line. Job seekers are intentionally adding errors to their applications. CEOs are publishing posts with a few strategically placed mistakes. Instead of being a sign of laziness, it's a sign that you used your own brain instead of AI. There's even a new AI tool that undoes AI writing and makes it messier and more human. This is all part of the broader proof of human touch trend that's happening in marketing right now. Apple did a whole campaign about how they made the campaign for their MacBook No launch. Chamberlain Coffee detailed exactly how a campaign was made and tagged all of the humans involved. Now it's a competitive advantage to show that you don't use AI. Because when AI can generate anything, proving you have the capabilities and creativity to make work without it is the most valuable signal you can send.
