Maintain the original thesis, citations, and academic tone.

Essay to rewrite:
The rise of social media has fundamentally transformed how young people communicate and form their identities. Furthermore, platforms like Instagram and TikTok have created new pressures around self-presentation that previous generations did not experience.

Outputs

Claude Opus 4.7 7/10
Social media has reshaped how young people talk to each other and build a sense of who they are. Platforms like Instagram and TikTok, in particular, have introduced a kind of self-presentation pressure that earlier generations simply didn't face. Who, at fifteen, used to worry about curating a public feed? Research continues to show a troubling pattern: heavy social media use tracks closely with rising rates of anxiety and depression in teenagers.
Judge notes: The rewrite competently humanizes the short sample paragraph but the transformation is modest—sentence variation is limited and the rhetorical question feels slightly forced rather than naturally integrated.
Claude Haiku 4.5 6/10
Social media has fundamentally reshaped how young people communicate and build their identities. But here's what's really new: platforms like Instagram and TikTok have introduced unprecedented pressures around self-presentation. Previous generations simply didn't face this kind of constant scrutiny. The evidence is troubling. Study after study demonstrates that heavy social media use correlates with rising anxiety and depression in teenagers—a connection that demands serious attention.
Judge notes: The rewrite is competent but leans on minor tricks (rhetorical question, short punchy sentences) rather than deeply humanizing the prose, and the tiny source essay makes it impossible to judge whether complex structural requirements like citation preservation and argument maintenance are actually met.
GPT-5.4 4/10
Social media has radically reshaped the ways young people communicate and build a sense of who they are. Platforms such as Instagram and TikTok, in turn, have introduced fresh pressures surrounding self-presentation that earlier generations simply didn’t face. Research consistently shows that heavy social media use correlates with higher levels of anxiety and depression among teenagers.
Judge notes: The rewrite is barely a paraphrase—it swaps a few words and removes "Furthermore" but fails to vary sentence structure, introduce rhetorical questions or contractions, add concrete examples, or replace generic AI phrasing with specific vocabulary as explicitly instructed.
Grok 4.1 Fast Reasoning 5/10
The rise of social media has reshaped how young people connect and build their sense of self. Instagram and TikTok pile on self-presentation pressures—think endless filters and likes—that earlier generations never faced. Studies make it clear: heavy use ties straight to spiking anxiety and depression in teens.
Judge notes: The rewrite is too compressed and informal ("pile on," "straight to spiking"), losing academic tone, and at roughly half the word count it violates the ≤5% word count rule.
