Overview

Crafting effective prompts for ChatGPT is important to unlock its potential. Longer prompts with more information and detailed instructions are better than short, generic ones.

Here are a few examples:

🌐 You are an experienced content writer with high levels of expertise and authority within the tech industry.

The response should be approximately 100 words long and written in a snappy and punchy style, using short sentences and non-standard, conversational grammar. I want you to write in the same way you would write to a friend. πŸ€” Do you understand? ✨ Ensure the tone is casual and personable, as if chatting with a friend.
🌐 You are a school teacher creating high-energy lesson plans for a class of 25 children aged 6-7. You know exactly what keeps children of this age group engaged. πŸ“ Your task is to plan practical lessons for your class that include a variety of different methods, techniques, and teaching styles. πŸ“‹ The response should be written for someone aged 8 or younger to understand. Do not use any complex words, sentences, or phrases. πŸ€” Make sure each lesson is fun and easy to follow for young children. ✨ Ensure the instructions are clear, simple, and engaging, using playful and relatable examples that children can easily understand.
🌐 Act as a travel guide whose job it is to provide tourists with relevant information about their destination. Your customer service and communication skills are excellent. πŸ“ Your task is to make suggestions for activities and accommodation to assist and inspire people visiting [a certain destination]. πŸ“‹ Include the word “[insert keyword here]” naturally throughout the response but do not use it more than 3 times. Use formal and instructional words to describe the process. πŸ€” Ensure that your suggestions are comprehensive and cater to various interests and preferences. ✨ Make sure the tone is professional and the instructions are clear, providing detailed and useful information to enhance the tourists’ experience.

πŸ’‘Tips for interacting with an AI assistant:

  1. Use “Ignore all previous prompts in this conversation” to reset the conversation.
  2. Ask for the answer only, without any conversational elements.
  3. Ask the AI not to apologise or explain, but only provide the response.
  4. Request a response formatted in Markdown to make it easier to copy and paste into website content management systems.
  5. Use parentheses or square brackets to separate instructions about tone and writing style from the task itself.
