Most people just give a topic. That's why it looks like a template.
Give it a topic + a visual reference instead. Point at an account you like, describe the vibe, or drop in a screenshot. That's what makes it look like you.
📋 PASTE THIS PROMPT
"Build me a 7-slide Instagram carousel on [topic]. Style reference: [your reference]. Slide 1: hook — one line that stops the scroll. Slides 2–6: one idea each, kept short. Slide 7: CTA — [follow / comment X / save this]. Square, 1080×1080."
🤖 THEN RUN THIS
"Make this look less AI-generated: one font throughout, one accent color, left-align the text, stop centering everything."
Mixed fonts + dead-centered layout is the #1 AI tell. Fix that and most people can't clock it.
⚠️ Expect 2–3 rounds of edits. The quality comes from the corrections, not the first prompt.
Go make the carousel you've been putting off.
