How to Write HumanLike Articles Using ChatGPT

 

Let me share a secret with you: most AI written articles are quite poor. They are robotic, repetitive, and full of made up facts. The good news is, you can use ChatGPT to write better articles faster while still maintaining your human touch. I used this method to write 100+ blog posts (and none of my readers ever guessed that I used AI to help). 

Here is exactly how to do this, step by step. No technical skills required. 

 

 Step 1: Find the RIGHT Topic

 

ChatGPT is not great at everything, so to not get hedachy: 

✅ Write about evergreen topics (nothing that is changing all the time!) 

✅ Don't use opinions (AI can't argue itself out of a paper bag!) 

✅ Write in lists (like "the 10 best..." or "5 ways to...")  

 

Here some examples: 

 

Bad Topic: "Latest AI Trends in 2024". (ChatGPT knowledge stops in 2021!) 

Good Topic: "Best Fonts to Use in Word". (Evergreen + list-type)  

 

Step 2: Mine for Gold with ChatGPT

 

Do not just say "write me an article about fonts". First, ask some smart questions: 

1. "Why would anyone search for best fonts in Word?" 

2. "What makes a font easy to read?" 

3. "What mistakes do people make when choosing fonts?" 

 

These get ChatGPT thinking a bit more like a human writer. You are going to want to copy and paste the answers into a doc because you will use it in step 4.

 

Step 3: Create a Fantastic Outline

 

Now think:

"From the information above, write an outline for an article on best fonts for Word."

 

Then you can revise your outline like this:

Remove any overlap.

Add your own examples ("Why I quit using Comic Sans")

Add audience questions ("Do fonts affect productivity?")

Pro Tip: Refer to the "People Also Ask" section on Google on your topic, note those questions, and use all of them in your outline!

 

Step 4: Write using AI (but write human)

 

For each section of the outline, you can simply ask ChatGPT:

"Describe why Helvetica is a good font for resumes. Use conversational style."

Then EDIT LIKE THIS:

Add jokes/more personal examples ("My resume was in Papyrus... oops!")

Take out any fluff ("In conclusion, in the end, lastly...")

Change any jargon into digestible terms ("kerning" → "space between letters").

 

 

 

Step 5: Fact-check the AI 

 

ChatGPT is a source for misinformation. Always be sure to ask, 

"Does this article contain errors or mistakes?" 

 

ChatGPT may reply, 

"I made a mistake saying, Martin Sheen designed Calibri. It was actually Lucas de Groot. now it was 2002" 

 

Double-check: 

 release information of font 

 designer names 

 and accessibility prediction statements  

 

 Step 6: Include visuals that a human can create  

 

AI cannot make these (yet): 

1. Custom graphics. Use Canva to create a font comparison chart  

2. Real examples: Screenshot bad and good examples of using fonts 

3. Photos of yourself. Image of your workroom, with your favorite font.  

 

Pro Tip: Add alt text to images for SEO: Example: 

"Image: Comparison of a resume created in Helvetica against a resume created in Times New Roman."

 

 

Step 7: The SEO Insert (Without Being Gimmicky)

 

1. Use free options such as AnswerThePublic to get keywords

2. Ask ChatGPT "What the heck am I missing in this piece?" (it will furnish a few FAQs to include)

3. Keywords naturally included:

    a. Bad: "Best fonts fonts best fonts for Word fonts"

    b. Good: "When you are choosing fonts for your Word document, remember that readability is more important than style."

 

Step 8: The Last Human Check

 

You should read your article out loud.  If it sounds robotic, it means one of these to fix:

     a. Too formal? Use some contractions ("you are" becomes "you're")

     b. No personality? Opine a little ("I hate Wingdings—here's why")

     c. Boring examples? Use examples from pop culture or current events. ("This font is the Comic Sans of 2024")

 

Why do this?

     a. Time saved: Research/writing 5 hours > 1 hour

     b. Quality: Merge the efficiencies of AI with the creativity of a human writer

     c. Google friendly: Creates genuine value to avoid Google penalties for "AI content".

 

My Ethical AI Writing Guidelines

 

1. NEVER publish AI text what is written by it word-for-word (always edit it!)

2. Disclose your ai usage (follow your platforms guidelines)

3. That's not ai can not do: add your own personal stories, your own original research, humour

 

 

Tools I used for this article

Your Turn: Give This A Go Today

 

1. Identify a live topic to write the listicle (ie;. "7 easy pasta recipes"

2. Use ChatGPT to research and writing outlines

3. Write your sections, ai will help with reference and editing

4. Add your own unique image

5. Publish and watch the traffic roll in.

Summary: The Benefits of and Pros/Cons to Using AI to Improve Writing Ability

 

Let's be honest - no one of us is going to be put out of a job by an AI in the near future, especially if they take this advice to use it. But if we do pick our times and purposes for using AI wisely, it can help us write faster, think bigger and cover our blindspots.

 

The secret is this: AI makes a draft, and you make it good.

 

• Use ChatGPT for mindless tasks (research, outlines, and fact-checking)

• Make sure your voice, your humor, your experience is front and center

• Fact-check always (AI hallucinations are real… a lot!)

• Visuals that only humans can make (screenshots, personal examples)

 

The best articles weren't made only by AI or only made by people - the best articles are made with both. Much like a sous-chef sets up all the ingredients so that chef can do the cooking, AI can do the heavy lifting on the boring tasks so that authors can tell a great story.

 

You can try it today:

 

1. Pick an easy 'best X' topic

2. Use AI as a research/outline helper

3. Write a section with the support of AI and your voice

 

You will be shocked at just how much better (and faster) you will write!
