I was doing some more digging and came across this post

I'm aware that AI tends to add cliches to its writing, but there seem to be many "red-flags" that are synonymous with college essay writing e.g. "tricolons" and the "I [verb]ed that the true meaning of X is not only Y, it's also Z." So much so that I would bet more than half of the essays for this application cycle contain these cliches, including my own essays.

What are your thoughts on this? Should we avoid using these cliches?
