I Paid 3 Fiverr Writers to See Who Used AI ($15 Test)

I Paid 3 Fiverr Writers to See Who Used AI ($15 Test)

Jul 8, 2026

I ran an experiment. I ordered three articles from different Fiverr writers — same brief, same topic ("5 AI tools that can make you money in 2026"), $5 each. Then I ran every article through Originality.ai to see which ones were actually written by humans… and which were AI.

Then I tested my own AI-assisted script. Goes to show the tool works — and that being intentional about how you use AI matters more than hiding it.
