In this last lecture of this section, I want to provide you with some additional resources and walk you through some other resources that I have in this Basics of Prompting section for you to work with. So far, we have covered Output formats, where you can ask GPT for different format structures. But there is more that ChatGPT can do. You can use a specific template or style guide, such as the Ida framework, to write blogs or other creative projects. ChatGPT can also work with headers and different types of headings.
When creating prompts, keep in mind that you can assign tone and voice, provide more details using quotes or references, use data or statistics to provide evidence, and provide step-by-step structures or detailed explanations of a process.
Define an audience for your task or project. Not only tell ChatGPT what the role of the model is, but also help it understand who the audience of the output will be. This will ensure that the output is tailored to the specific audience.
Define the purpose or goal of your task. Assign a specific goal or purpose that may be different from the instruction. For example, if you want to write a sales email, you can specify that the goal is to increase the click-through rate or maximize revenue. ChatGPT will take this purpose into account when generating the prompts.
Provide context for the task. Depending on the task, you can provide industry information, an outline structure, keywords for SEO, competitors or comparisons, branding guidelines, and more. This will help ChatGPT understand the context and generate more relevant prompts.
Please note that ChatGPT is not yet equipped to work with links or images, but once that functionality is available, you can use Bing to perform tasks related to images.
By following these optimization techniques, you can create more effective prompts and get better results from ChatGPT.
