I am trying to use Gemini Pro API to generate personalized content for emails in a campaign.
When I use prompt manually in Gemini Web Chat, result follows my instructions much better and is a lot more "human", than doing same request in API.
Previously I tried making same thing work with ChatGPT, and I had the same issue. Looks like a lot of other people have same problem: https://community.openai.com/t/different-results-chatgpt3-5-vs-api-gpt-3-5-turbo/123712
I tried using system prompts and various other hacks, but couldn't get it to work.
So I switched to Gemini, but now facing the same problem.
Generate cold email.

Which is just what I want...
But if I do same thing in API:
POST: https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/models/gemini-pro:generateContent?key=
{
"contents": [
{
"parts":[{
"text": "My Prompt goes here"}]},
]
}
I get back:

It is not bad, but it is not as concise or direct as the Web. And it doesn't have much human feel to it.
I ran the same prompt multiple times on Web Chat and through API and results are consistently better on Web Chat.
What parameters do I need to pass to API to match the quality of results to Gemini Web Chat?
