Killing the "AI Voice"

ClaudeWriting From a course

Generic AI writing tends to over-use certain patterns (excessive "moreover," perfectly balanced sentences, hedge-everything tone).

The prompt

Here is a sample of my writing style: [paste 2-3 paragraphs you wrote]. Write a new [blog post/caption] about [topic] matching this voice — sentence rhythm, vocabulary level, and tone. Avoid these overused AI phrases: "in today's fast-paced world," "it's important to note," "unlock the power of," "delve into."

What to replace

Swap these placeholders for your own details before running the prompt:

[paste 2-3 paragraphs you wrote]your own value
[blog post/caption]your own value
[topic]your own value

Pro tip: Feeding a real writing sample is the single biggest lever for making AI output sound human — better than any instruction alone.

How to use this prompt

Copy the prompt using the button above.
Replace [paste 2-3 paragraphs you wrote], [blog post/caption], [topic] with your own details — the more specific you are, the better the output.
Paste it into Claude and run it.
If the answer feels generic, add constraints: audience, length, tone, and what to avoid. That single change fixes most weak output.

Professional editing is two separate passes: a structural pass (does the argument build? is anything missing or redundant?) and a line pass (rhythm, word choice, cuts).
