This is a fun challenge, I think: make the AI generate text with no obvious AI shibboleths. I haven't found a good way to do it at all yet, the more you ask it not to, the more you lower the output quality, which paradoxically makes it more sloppy, not less. Funnily enough I think "lower-power" LLMs are much better at this, like Haiku is much better at keeping voice on track with those kinds of instructions.

I have done it for a long time now. It's actually pretty straight forward to do it, but you have to run it in a pipeline, and you have to add deterministic checks as well.

There was an odd key to unlocking it sounding like a human. I spent like a month on this topic last year, and I randomly stumbled upon something that ended up massively improving generated tests.

It was a shot in the dark after failing so often. And then it suddenly sounded good.
