It's a lazy Sunday afternoon. I'm chilling with my buddy Mike, cold beers in hand, solving the world's problems one sip at a time.

Then Mike hits me with this: "How can I make AI sound more like... well, me?"

Here's my friend, expecting me to pull an AI Houdini act right there between beer number two and three.

But here's the thing - this wasn’t the first time I got asked this question. This isn't just Mike's problem, it's everyone’s.

I gave Mike my 3 simple tips and I’m about to do the same for you now. So buckle up, grab your coffee (no more beers for now), and let’s get into it.

How To
Make AI Sound Authentic

AI-generated content is like unseasoned tofu. No taste, not great to look at, it’s just meh.

But let me tell you. Tofu can be fucking delicious. It just needs a bit of love and seasoning.

The same goes for AI-generated content. It needs your flavor, your personality, your personal touch.

Without it, you’ll end up with boring content with no flavor. So here’s how to add that flavor.

1/ Ditch the Robot Language

AI has a vocabulary problem. It's like that one friend who only speaks in jargon.

So first, get rid of all the signs that scream "This was written by a machine!"

You know the ones: "delve," "landscape," "moreover," "furthermore."

Think about it: when was the last time you used "plethora" in casual conversation? Exactly.

It's like trying to pass off a microwave dinner as a gourmet meal. Nobody's buying it.

Try this: Instead of "Moreover, this solution provides numerous benefits," go with "This trick? It's a game-changer."

The formula: Identify robot words → Replace with your go-to phrases → Sprinkle in casual words you like.

2/ Add Your Personal Touch

Bad example: "Incorporating personal interests can enhance content authenticity."

Good example: "Throw in your obsession with vintage teapots or your inferior fear of pigeons."

The bad example sounds like it was written by a committee of office drones. The good one? It's got personality!

Humans are drawn to other humans' quirks. By sharing the “weird stuff,“ you're sending a signal to your tribe.

3/ Embrace the Cringe

Meet the "Cringe Authentic Framework" (CAF). It's simple: the more you make yourself cringe, the more authentic you become.

Take Gary Vaynerchuk, for example. The man built an empire on being unabashedly himself, cringe and all.

How does it work? Share those moments you'd usually hide - your failures, your awkward stories, your questionable life choices.

Why is this effective? Because it creates a "shared embarrassment bond." When you share something cringeworthy, your audience collectively cringes with you, creating an instant connection.

Real-world example: Remember when Elon Musk tried to demo the "unbreakable" Cybertruck windows, and they... broke? That moment humanized him more than any PR campaign ever could.

The formula: Identify your cringiest story → Resist the urge to sugar-coat it → Share it boldly → Watch your authenticity skyrocket.

4/ Takeaway

There’s no magic trick to make AI sound like you. No prompt, no tool, no hack.

To make AI sound like you, you take the content it generates and you make it your own.
