Formatting[ ] You’ll notice in my prompts that I bundle the style guide inside brackets. [Like this.] Still experimenting, but brackets seem to prevent the style from bleeding into the content itself. Otherwise, you may find your style words coming up in expected ways.

–
Warning: ↳ Style tends to drift back to standard Even within a single passage, I found that it would start off with my style directions, but gradually revert to the more standard ChatGPT way of writing. More experimentation is needed here.

Warning: ↳ Too much style doesn’t work very well I tested combing different styles. This a common technique with AI art models to improve the results. But with text, too many instructions resulted in average content. (You can still add formatting instructions.)

🔸 Emulate a Writer
— Rob Lennon 🗯 | AI Whisperer (@thatroblennon) 13 janvier 2023
For writers who have large bodies of work, language models can emulate their style.
Instead of describing the voice and tone you want, try asking it to write as someone. pic.twitter.com/I0NhBHRhk1Emulate a Writer For writers who have large bodies of work, language models can emulate their style. Instead of describing the voice and tone you want, try asking it to write as someone.

🔸 Conversational English
— Rob Lennon 🗯 | AI Whisperer (@thatroblennon) 13 janvier 2023
I discovered this while trying to get the AI to consistently speak in broken English.
The result, is, perhaps ironically, very clear and easy to read.
Another good alternative to "write like a 5th grader" that's more specific. pic.twitter.com/3bMvX0SFmwConversational English I discovered this while trying to get the AI to consistently speak in broken English.

If you ask ChatGPT to write like a copywriter, it will try to sell you stuff.
I guess I don’t blame it for having that impression of us.
But if you want well-written copy without the salesy vibe, use this. pic.twitter.com/FQl5BsiKmvPersuasive Storyteller If you ask ChatGPT to write like a copywriter, it will try to sell you stuff.

🔸 Format Using Markdown
— Rob Lennon 🗯 | AI Whisperer (@thatroblennon) 13 janvier 2023
Asking for extra formatting is a sweetener that I use regularly in my prompts.
I find it much easier to work with the output versus longer paragraphs stacked together.

🔸 Conversational + Relatable
— Rob Lennon 🗯 | AI Whisperer (@thatroblennon) 13 janvier 2023
AI writing can be dry and stuffy.
But it doesn’t have to be.
It knows perfectly well how to talk normally, that’s just not the default.

How to prompt AI for simple clear writing

🔸 Clear. Concise. No Jargon.
— Rob Lennon 🗯 | AI Whisperer (@thatroblennon) 13 janvier 2023
An easy hack is to ask it to write at a 5th grade level.
But that’s also an ambiguous idea for a language model.
