What else can you ask once this one’s working?

Keep a running file of 10-15 sentences you've written that sound like 'you' and reuse it every time. Also: Ask specifically: 'what's the one phrase here that sounds most like AI wrote it?' and cut just that. Also: Run your own final draft through this once before publishing anything public-facing.

Ask AI to sound like you, not like AI

Steal this promptRewrite this so it sounds like a real person wrote it — specifically me. Here are a few lines I've actually written so you can match my voice: [paste 3-5 sentences you wrote]. Cut generic AI phrasing ("in today's fast-paced world," excessive hedging, uniform sentence lengths), keep it human, and keep any opinion I stated instead of softening it. Text to fix: [paste]

What you'll get

Writing that sounds like you on a good day, not like a corporate FAQ.

Why this actually matters

AI-generated text has recognizable tells — reputable AI educators have written whole guides on stripping them out. The fix isn't a special tool, it's giving the model real samples of your actual voice to match.

How to do it

1

Open your AI assistant

Open the AI you use (in any chat). This works in all the popular ones.

2

Paste the prompt and fill the blanks

Copy the prompt below, paste it in, and replace anything in [brackets] with your details.

3

Read it, then refine

Read what comes back and ask it to adjust — shorter, warmer, more detail. Two tweaks and it’s perfect.

Take it further ↑

This is a one-off you can run in any chat. The real magic is making it repeat — ask AI to do it every week, keep it as a living system, or have it build you a tool that does it for you. That jump from "neat trick" to "runs my work" is exactly what the ∞ apps are for.
