How to Use ChatGPT to Write YouTube Scripts in Your Own Voice

One of the hardest parts of using AI for YouTube is making sure the script still sounds like you. Most people just ask ChatGPT to “write me a YouTube script about X” — but that’s why it ends up feeling generic.

The trick? Ask specific command questions that guide ChatGPT to mirror your voice, pacing, and personality. For example:

Instead of: “Write me a script on credit cards.”Try: “Write a YouTube script in a casual, funny, but authoritative tone. Keep sentences short, add rhetorical questions, and end each section with a call-to-action.”
Instead of: “Make it engaging.”Try: “Start with a hook in the first 3 seconds, break down the main problem in under 1 minute, then use a storytelling example before explaining the solution.”

💡 Pro tip: You can actually teach ChatGPT your style by making a short questionnaire for yourself (“What phrases do I say a lot? How do I explain things? Do I use humor or analogies?”) or by uploading a CSV of your answers. That way, your prompts always have a reference point to pull your voice from.

👉 My question to the group: What are the specific prompts or command styles you’ve used that make your AI-written scripts feel like they’re actually YOU speaking?
