It’s a dead giveaway, and it can kill engagement. But I just stumbled upon an incredible solution from a savvy professional that completely changes how an AI “thinks” about writing. The mind behind it created something called a PRISM meta-prompt, which acts as a personality layer you can apply to any new chat to make the output feel genuinely human.

This is a fantastic approach to getting more natural-sounding text. The original poster designed this prompt to systematically override the AI’s default patterns.

Here are the key insights:

Injects Human Imperfection: The prompt tells the AI to stop being a perfect content machine. It instructs it to vary sentence rhythm, use sentence fragments, and even make occasional natural digressions. This is what makes writing feel authentic.

Establishes a New Persona: Instead of the default AI assistant, you’re giving it a new identity: “Human with personality quirks, not optimized content machine.” It even tells the AI to break the rules when it “feels right,” which is a fascinating instruction for a logic-based system.

Super Simple to Use: The best part is its simplicity. You don’t need to bake these complex instructions into every single prompt. The creator explains that you just start a new chat, paste this one “kernel” prompt, and then follow up with your actual request. It layers this humanized personality over everything else.
