Tired of AI sounding like a robot? Teach it to write like you. 🎤 Learn how to create an AI style guide that nails your tone ✨ #AIwriting

The AI Style Guide Method: Train AI to Write in Your Voice

AI writing tools are great for speed, but they often churn out content that feels like it was written by a robot. If you’ve ever cringed at an AI-generated sentence that sounds nothing like you, you’re not alone. Your writing voice is your fingerprint—distinct, personal, and impossible to fake. But with the right method, you can teach AI to mimic it so well that even your closest friends won’t know the difference.

This guide will show you how to:

  • Pinpoint the quirks and traits that make your writing unique.

  • Build an AI style guide to act as a cheat sheet for your voice.

  • Write prompts that ensure the AI stays in line with your style.

  • Troubleshoot when the AI inevitably gets it wrong (because it will).

By the end, you’ll have an AI assistant that writes like you, minus the typos!

The Problem: Why AI Misses the Mark

AI doesn’t “know” you—it’s just guessing based on patterns in its training data. That’s why its outputs often feel generic or awkwardly formal. For example:

  • Your blog post turns into a stuffy essay.

  • A playful Instagram caption ends up sounding like a corporate memo.

  • eMails ooze with sales-y buzzwords no one likes.

The issue isn’t the AI itself; it’s that it doesn’t have a clear blueprint for how you write. Without guidance, it defaults to blandness—and let’s face it, bland doesn’t sell, engage, or connect.

The AI Style Guide Method

To fix this you need to create a style guide for your writing voice—a detailed set of instructions that tells the AI exactly how to sound like you. Here’s how to do it:

Step 1: Define Your Writing Voice

Start by analyzing your own writing. What makes it you? Look at:

  • Tone: Are you snarky, warm, professional, or all three depending on your mood?

  • Vocabulary: Do you use simple words or sprinkle in industry jargon?

  • Structure: Are your sentences short and punchy or long and lyrical?
