The anatomy of a real apology
A sincere apology has a few key parts: acknowledge specifically what you did and its impact, take responsibility without excuses or "if" ("I'm sorry you felt…" is not an apology), express genuine regret, and say what you'll do differently. Ask the AI to follow this and avoid defensive language.
Give it the situation and how the other person was affected, and ask for a sincere, non-defensive apology. Keep the focus on them and your accountability, not on justifying yourself.
Make it genuine
- Be specific about what you did and its impact.
- Take full responsibility — no excuses or "but".
- Avoid "I'm sorry if…" — it dodges responsibility.
- Say what you'll do differently going forward.
- Edit it to sound like you, sincerely — not scripted.
