"Knowledge is power. Information is liberating. Education is the premise of progress, in every society, in every family."
— Kofi Annan
It's fascinating how some perceive ChatGPT as the doer, but the truth is far more nuanced. The output is a reflection of your input—clear and precise inputs yield precise outputs. So, it's essentially a battle between your informed self and your uninformed self. Your task is to educate the latter. 💡
Remember the adage, "play stupid games and win stupid prizes." The quality of answers corresponds directly to the quality of questions. Crafting the right questions is an art; it's about breaking down queries into precise details. ChatGPT excels when provided with clear, detailed inputs. 🎯
Consider the analogy of buying a car. You wouldn't ask for recommendations without knowing what you need. For instance, if you seek a car for funeral transportation, specificity is key.
Original Prompt:
"Suggest some good cars for funeral transportation."
Tweaked Prompt:
"Suggest some good performance station wagons for funeral transportation, with mid-top variants featuring tailgates or liftgates, as well as split tailgate or liftgate features—combining an upward-swinging window with a downward-swinging tailgate, both manually operated." 🚗
Now, let's delve into another example:
Original Prompt:
"Give some good outfits and a list of gifts for a birthday party."
Tweaked Prompt:
"Tomorrow is my grandpa's 72nd birthday; he loves me so much, especially when I have long hair and dress formally. His favorite color is navy blue, and he's a huge chocolate and strawberry lover. I really want to surprise him and make him happy with my presence. Please suggest an outfit for me that will impress him, along with a decent list of gifts for him. If possible, suggest a roleplay idea for me to impress him with a surprise entry. It needs to be subtle; he's elderly, and I don't want to give him a heart attack." 🎂
Remember, having decent knowledge about the field or goals you aim to achieve is crucial. All this time, you didn't talk with ChatGPT. It's you on the other side, educating your uninformed self, and refining it to match your understanding, preferences, and objectives. The ChatGPT version of you has fewer restrictions in creativity compared to reality, thanks to its open-source nature and access to vast data. 🌐
Education precedes accomplishment. To achieve desired outcomes, equip yourself with knowledge, and employ creativity, leveraging the capabilities of Generative AI. 🚀
