We’re here to show you how to solve this problem for good and make ChatGPT write like a human so you can cheat on your homework, write your cringe wedding vows, or even get your ex back. Not really, though.
These prompts will help you make ChatGPT produce content that feels authentically human and fantastically real.

Understanding Human-like Content
So, what does “human-like” content even mean? How does something sound human? Well, it involves several key elements:
- Personas: Tailoring the AI’s voice to mimic a specific individual.
- Personal Experience: Incorporating unique stories and insights.
- Fact Insertion: Using up-to-date and relevant data.
- Perplexity and Burstiness: Varying sentence structure and vocabulary.
AI is not good at naturally doing these things unless you specifically instruct it to do them. So, now you have a new job: hack ChatGPT’s natural robotic voice and replace it with one that sounds like it has a pulse. You’ll be fooling everyone in no time. Let’s party.
