Killer chatgpt prompts.

ChatGPT is a powerful AI tool that can help with everything from quick explanations to creative writing. But to get the best results, you need to know how to interact with it effectively. Here’s your ultimate guide to ChatGPT prompting and general interaction.

I. General Interaction and Prompting

• Getting Information: Asking “Explain in 30 words what a mortgage is”.
• Rewriting/Refining: Prompting ChatGPT to “Please rewrite your response using 60 words and giving an example” after an initial response.
• Using Slang/Informal Language: ChatGPT understands slang, for example, “Hit me with five bullets on globalization” to get bullet points, or “Hit me with a stick” to get a refusal.
• Giving Commands or Making Requests: Both commands (e.g., “Write a happy cat story”) and requests (e.g., “Hey, ChatGPT, could you write me a story about a happy cat?”) are understood.
• Editing Prompts: Clicking the Edit button to modify a prompt and then “Save & Submit”.
• Adding Information to a Chat: Typing or pasting additional information into the “Send a Message” box to further develop a prompt.
• Regenerating Responses: Clicking the “Regenerate Response button” if the initial response is “largely on target but you’d like to see it written differently”.
• Copying Output: Clicking the “Copy button” to transfer ChatGPT’s response to the Clipboard for pasting elsewhere.
• Indicating Preference: Using “Like button” or “Dislike button” for responses.
• Dictation: Entering text quickly using dictation in the ChatGPT app.
• Fact-Checking (Distrust and Verify): While ChatGPT generates text that appears accurate, it’s crucial to “Distrust, and verify” its accuracy, as it can “hallucinate” or provide incorrect information. It cannot reliably fact-check its own output.
• Query Size Limit: Being aware that the maximum query size is 4096 tokens, and ChatGPT will warn you if you exceed it.
