Three things to give an AI so its writing sounds like yours

You've had an AI drafting your newsletter for a month, and readers are starting to notice. Asking it to sound more natural gets you nowhere, because as far as it can tell, it already does. Start with a list of the habits you keep deleting: a favorite dash, the same few stock phrases, the "it's not X, it's Y" sentence. Update it whenever you switch models, since each one has its own tics. Then describe the voice itself. Say where it sits between warm and authoritative, casual and formal, direct and polite, playful and serious, who's doing the writing, and what reading level you want. Last, hand it a few of your own pieces, as different from each other as you can find. People usually slip on the samples. If every one is long paragraphs, or two share a phrase, the AI copies that too. Choose pieces whose only common trait is the voice, and keep a separate set for social posts and sales pages. Drafts tend to come back needing lighter edits, though you will still catch the odd stock phrase by hand.
