👤 Prompts to Make ChatGPT Sound More Like a Real Person

How to Make AI Sound More Human?

ChatGPT is an AI language model that was developed by OpenAI. It's like a chat buddy that can discuss almost anything and usually gives pretty human-like answers.

But sometimes, ChatGPT can sound more like a robot than a person.

In this article, I'm going to show you a really easy way to make ChatGPT sound more like us. The secret? It all comes down to how it talks. When ChatGPT uses a friendly, straight-to-the-point style and avoids big, fancy words, it sounds much more like a real conversation. That's the key to making AI conversations feel more human.

Implementation in Prompts to Rewrite AI

To make ChatGPT sound more like a real person, we can add specific instructions to our prompts to guide how it responds. For instance, we can include a phrase like "Tone: conversational, concise, simplify the language." This tells ChatGPT to:

• Be informal: Use everyday language, as if it's a casual chat between friends.

• Be concise: Keep responses brief and to the point, cutting out unnecessary words.

• Simplify the language: Avoid complex or specialized business language that might be hard to understand.

By setting these guidelines, we're steering ChatGPT away from sounding formal and robotic and more towards a natural, human-like style of communication.
