For months, I’ve been asking AI chatbots to do something that should be simple: sound like me.
I’ve fed them hundreds of my articles, texts and emails. I’ve corrected tone, nudged phrasing and explicitly asked them to match my voice. The output is always technically fine — but emotionally wrong. The sentences land, yet the cadence doesn’t. It’s the uncanny valley of writing: polished, competent, and completely off-vibe.
