How To Make ChatGPT Sound Human

What Are Personas?

A persona is a fictional character that represents your target audience. The persona has distinct tones, styles, and characteristics.

For example, if you’re a yoga podcaster, your target audience is females looking to build flexibility and fitness.

You can train ChatGPT with the particular persona you want. So, the AI adopts this voice when generating content. This helps create a consistent and authentic experience for your audience.

Setting a persona allows you to write in a voice that resonates with the audience you’re targeting. This will help you generate content that’s more relevant and engaging.

Toasty AI comes with a lot of persona you can choose from. You can find them for categories like:

• Business
• Creative Arts
• Developing
• Education

You can create templates for different outputs such as:

• Social media posts

3. Prompt ChatGPT to use the persona and template

You then use the persona and template to instruct ChatGPT that your output needs to be based on that.

Suppose I’m a yoga podcaster and I have the persona for my listeners who are yoga enthusiasts. And my template is to generate the podcast episode structure. Here’s an example prompt I would use to do this:

I’m a yoga podcaster and my listeners are yoga enthusiasts who want to learn more about yoga and advanced techniques. I’ll give you the persona of my listeners so you can tailor the results based on it. I’ll also give you the template to generate the podcast episode structure. I’ll need you to use the persona and template to create the podcast episode structure for me.

Use ChatGPT’s Custom Instructions With Personas

You get the option of using Custom Instructions with ChatGPT. Which means you can set guidelines about the tone, style, voice for all of your ChatGPT interactions.

You already have your persona created and you can use that to feed these Custom Instructions.

Example Setup for a Persona:

• • How would you like ChatGPT to respond?
    • • “Use an enthusiastic and knowledgeable tone, with occasional humor. Incorporate technical jargon where appropriate, but ensure explanations are clear and accessible.”

Now, every interaction with ChatGPT will have the persona of “The Tech Guru”. You’ll get content that resonates with the audience of this persona.
