GPT Best Practices
I find it interesting that most of these tactics can be summarized into: "write clearly and provide ample information."I have a side business for ACT/SAT prep. I teach English, and often have to remind students about sentence structure and word flow. For example, I can't say "My mom, my grandma, and I went to her favorite store" -- in that example, there is no clear way to know who "her" is.Similarly, I see many people claim GPT-n is "dumb", yet when I see their prompt, I realize it was a bad prompt. There are clear logical inconsistencies, there is inadequate information, and there is confusing word usage.I've been astounded by GPT-4 and have nearly 5x-ed my productivity with it (for coding and for parsing documents). But I think my experience is a result of my habitual "standardized testing" writing style, while others' poor experience is a result of their more layman writing style.
