Recommendation

ChatGPT (Chatbot Generative Pre-trained Transformer) is a potent AI language model that learns from vast text data input. It understands prompts and responds to them with human-like language derived from more pre-September 2021 information than one human brain could ever hold. To wield this awesome power, learn to write good prompts. While fears surrounding ChatGPT abound – how it will take white-collar jobs, how students are using it to cheat on essays, how it will become sentient and take over the world – why not use this technology to make your job, which you might soon lose to the machines, easier?

Summary

Effective ChatGPT prompts provide specific context, a clear framework and restrictions for the expected answer.

When you use a large language model, you get what you give: The more precisely you design your prompt – which can take the form of a question, a statement, an instruction or a blend of all three – the more discerning, accurate and creative the response. A prompt is akin to a conversation starter; it sets the direction and tone for the ensuing dialogue. If you learn to craft effective prompts, you’ll end up with answers that not only give you exactly the information you need but also delight and surprise you.

A powerful prompt feeds the AI with enough context to generate useful, germane responses. It communicates the parameters of your search and tells the AI what you expect from an answer. A well-phrased prompt inspires the AI to be creative, and it sets strict parameters to avoid receiving responses that don’t align with your needs. 

ChatGPT churns out the best results when your prompts are pertinent, pithy and informative. Be specific, provide necessary context, include guidelines...
