One response
I say, “Here’s my situation.
Ask me the questions that you would need to know
if you were my lawyer.”
So then it asked me the question.
At that point, now it has the context.
Then I say, “Give me an informed answer
based on what I just told you.”
And then it knows, “Well, you could do X,
but since you said you’re incorporated here, blah, blah,
blah,” right?
And it can give you a smarter answer that way.
– Oh, that’s pretty good.
Have you used it for any other prompts
that are helping you solve like just like life problems
where like a therapist would help guide you
or like an executive coach?
– Yeah, I tell it, it’s my coach or it’s my therapist
or it’s my strategist or it’s my analyst.
And then I’ll either ask it the questions
or I’ll tell it to ask me the questions.
By the way, that’s one of the useful things
about ChatGPT is tell it the role upfront.
So the prompt structure that works is role, goal,
and then I think context.
And so you go role, you say, “You are my research assistant.
Your job is to find examples that support
the ideas that I’m gonna present you.
Goal.
I’m trying to write a really persuasive blog post about X.
So I need to come up with great examples
and counter examples.
And then I’ll give it the context.
The context is blah, blah, blah.
And then it knows the role, it knows the goal,
and then it has the context in order to actually do the job.
– Dude, that’s amazing.
I love ChatGPT.
