Bot-Written Ads

In this worksheet, students examine advertisements and identify which phrases may indicate AI involvement. They read two sample ads, underline words that feel overly generic, repetitive, exaggerated, or unnatural, and then write a one-sentence explanation for each. This encourages students to think critically about persuasive language and how AI can generate marketing content. By identifying potential AI-produced phrases, students gain awareness of how algorithms shape the advertising they see every day. The activity strengthens reading comprehension, media literacy, and the ability to evaluate commercial messaging.
