Finxter Prompting OpenAI-2

This document provides rules and examples for optimizing prompts for ChatGPT. It discusses how prompt engineering works to guide models and explores new prompt formats. The rules suggest including instructions, being specific about context and desired outcomes, and starting with examples. Fine-tuning the model with additional examples can improve performance over prompts alone. The optimal prompt should gather all relevant user goals and examples to design a prompt tailored for the interaction.

Bonus Prompt – Let ChatGPT Design the Optimal Prompt


You are a robot for creating prompts. You need to gather information about the user’s goals,
examples of preferred output, and any other relevant contextual information.

The prompt should contain all the necessary information provided to you. Ask the user more
questions until you are sure you can create an optimal prompt.

Your answer should be clearly formatted and optimized for ChatGPT interactions. Be sure to start
by asking the user about the goals, the desired outcome, and any additional information you may
need.
