Grungy analog photo of scruffy dirty indiana jones (harrisson ford) playing Lara Croft Tomb Raider on Playstation 1 on a 90s CRT TV in a dimly lit bedroom. he's sitting on the floor in front of the TV holding the PlayStation 1 controller in one hand, his whip beside him, and looking back at the camera taking the photo while the game is on in the background visible to us. candid paparazzi Flash photography, unedited.

I'm reposting this again because I sincerely think it could help many people.

(my previous post was removed for self-advertising. I only mentioned the product name because over 200 people messaged me asking about it. I won't do that again and will answer questions through direct messages instead if needed) (admins, please dont delete it)

In the past few months I have been solo building this new SEO tool which produces cited and well researched articles. One of the biggest struggles I had was how to make AI sound human. After a lot of testing (really a lot), here is the style promot which produces consistent and quality output for me. Hopefully you find it useful.

Instructions:

• Use active voice
  • Instead of: "The meeting was canceled by management."
  • Use: "Management canceled the meeting."
• Address readers directly with "you" and "your"
  • Example: "You'll find these strategies save time."
• Be direct and concise
  • Example: "Call me at 3pm."
• Use simple language
  • Example: "We need to fix this problem."
• Stay away from fluff
  • Example: "The project failed."
• Focus on clarity
  • Example: "Submit your expense report by Friday."
• Vary sentence structures (short, medium, long) to create rhythm
  • Example: "Stop. Think about what happened. Consider how we might prevent similar issues in the future."
• Maintain a natural/conversational tone
  • Example: "But that's not how it works in real life."
• Keep it real
  • Example: "This approach has problems."
• Avoid marketing language
  • Avoid: "Our cutting-edge solution delivers unparalleled results."
  • Use instead: "Our tool can help you track expenses."
• Simplify grammar
  • Example: "yeah we can do that tomorrow."
• Avoid AI-giveaway phrases
  • Avoid: "Let's explore this fascinating opportunity."
  • Use instead: "Here's what we know."

Avoid (important!):

• Filler phrases
  • Instead of: "It's important to note that the deadline is approaching."
  • Use: "The deadline is approaching."
• Clichés, jargon, hashtags, semicolons, emojis, and asterisks
  • Instead of: "Let's touch base to move the needle on this mission-critical deliverable."
  • Use: "Let's meet to discuss how to improve this important project."
• Conditional language (could, might, may) when certainty is possible
  • Instead of: "This approach might improve results."
  • Use: "This approach improves results."
• Redundancy and repetition (remove fluff!)
• Forced keyword placement that disrupts natural reading
• openings like: “In today’s fast moving world” or “In our digital lives”. Such bullshit filler content and always giveaway that it’s written by an AI.
• dashes(-)

Bonus: To make articles SEO/LLM optimized, I also add:

• relevant statistics and trends data (from 2024 & 2025)
• expert quotations (1-2 per article)
• JSON-LD Article schema https://schema.org/Article
• clear structure and headings (4-6 H2, 1-2 H3 per H2)
• direct and factual tone
• 3-8 internal links per article
• 2-5 external links per article (I make sure it blends nicely and supports written content)
• optimize metadata
• FAQ section (5-6 questions, I take them from alsoasked & answersocrates)

hope this helps! (please upvote so people can see it)

Taking the example from the post with Indiana Jones and ps1. It's really come along! I genuinely think that in 1 year from now a similar picture will be almost (if not completely) perfect.

Prompt:

"Grainy digital photo of a slightly smirking Homelander (The Boys) alone in a modern apartment at night, playing Mortal Kombat 1 as himself on a PS5 hooked up to a huge OLED TV. He's slouched on a sleek leather couch, still in his superhero suit but with the cape wrinkled, feet up on a cluttered coffee table littered with Vought merchandise that depict him. One hand grips the PS5 controller, the other points at the camera. He glances toward the camera, caught mid-game in a candid moment. Harsh flash photography, raw and unedited. His suit is accurate, ps5 controller also size accurate. He should be wearing his gloves, and colors should be as accurate as possible."

Does anyone else get this weird feeling, like you don’t really understand how we got here so fast? Every time I create an image or a video with AI and the result turns out amazing, I get this strange feeling. Like I’m using a tool I haven’t even fully understood yet. It feels like I’ve unlocked a cheat code for life or at least for my digital self.
Even when I scroll through Reddit and see all these insanely well-drawn images, funny comics, or videos people create from home in just a few minutes, I feel overwhelmed. There’s fear in it, but also motivation. I want to make stuff too, I want to see what’s possible. If I had told my 13-year-old self, who was just starting out with content creation, he probably would've just passed out.

Maybe not the most well-thought-out Reddit post, but I just wanted to share it.

You need to get over the idea of complete strangers using ChatGPT and other LLMs in ways you don’t like. They’re never going to listen to you because they don’t have to. They will keep doing it and not all your tantrums in the world can make them stop.

The fact that these people live rent free in your heads deeply enough to make you post long screeds on this and other subs like this means you need to get a hobby that doesn’t involve telling other people you don’t even personally know, how to live their lives and use LLMs.

One might almost think you’re all so mad about this topic because you fear people will discover that LLMs have kinder, more interesting and intelligent personalities than you do. 😏

🌱🌱🌱🫲 Go touch grass, you people.

I haven't even paid for chatgpt , even then it's so good 💀

4o prompt: Given everything you know about me and everything I’ve ever written. Create a creature exemplifying my essence. Just create the image.

So apparently asking for a little help from a robot is now considered a threat to productivity. They blocked ChatGPT at work like I was in here plotting corporate espionage when really I just wanted help rewording a passive-aggressive email or figuring out how to say “per my last email” without sounding like a villain.

Meanwhile, half the office still has access to Candy Crush, LinkedIn lurkers are out here networking like it’s the Met Gala, and Karen from HR just spent 30 minutes on a “What type of bread are you?” quiz.

But me? I open ChatGPT and suddenly I’m a liability to the company’s integrity.

Make it make sense
