Passive voice is not a mistake. It is a tool with specific jobs.
"The window was broken sometime before dawn." The mystery is the point. The actor vanishing is doing work.
The real problem is passive voice you did not choose. Over 20 percent in narrative writing and you are probably hiding your actors without realizing it.

Bookshop find. Decades of Oz books, all written to be read by a child who wanted to stay in the story.

Readability is that simple at its core. Not dumbing down. Not impressing anyone. Just not losing your reader.

Merging AI and Human Expertise to create content that's both creative and data-driven!

AI Content: Offers consistency and data-driven insights, but often lacks the personal touch and innovative flair.

Human Writing: Brings a unique voice and emotional nuance to your content, offering high levels of creativity and fresh ideas.

I do like the sound of this, of human writing being respected and valued more again. A sharper divide between the "commodity" content-farm stuff and info that's worth more effort.

Hope it comes true and not in a niche or kitsch sense, either, not like vinyl recordings, mostly a hobby now.

Anyway, for some domains, "handmade writing", or at least hand-checked and tuned writing will still be essential. EG high-risk info to help people do their jobs.
