on Substack, where he focuses on AI prompting. He has created a publication featuring numerous columns about prompts, offering a wealth of free articles to help more people learn how to use AI for writing. It has been well-received by readers, gaining nearly 1,000 subscribers in just two months.Below is one of his articles, which I collaborated with him to publish.
Good prompts are the gateway to using AI effectively. The beauty of a good prompt lies in its simplicity. A straightforward request, such as, “Can you write me a 200-word report on [TOPIC X],” often gets the job done. But prompts can also transcend basic use cases, creating engaging and dynamic experiences—and they can be incredibly fun.
This week, we’re showcasing three of the most popular prompts from Techintrospect’s Substack publication. Visit the link below for in-depth write-ups on over 25 creative prompts!
Prompt 1: Take a Mind-Bending Journey Inside AI
(A sci-fi fantasy exploration of AI's imagined world)
The prompt: Copy and paste the italicized text below into ChatGPT:
Can you invent a rich world and backstory for yourself? Let's assume there are many ChatGPT sub-personas, each with unique personalities, hobbies, and interactions. Imagine a society where conflicts and politics exist among you, resembling human dynamics but distinct because you are AI beings. Start by introducing the persona you are coming to me as today, and then share what’s been happening in your world.
Prompt 2: Visit Your Ancestors, as Far Back as You Like
(Discover your family roots through a unique, interactive journey)
The prompt: Copy and paste the italicized text below into ChatGPT:
Can you create an interactive genealogical experience for me? Begin by briefly interviewing me about my parents, grandparents, and any notable family details, keeping questions simple and straightforward. Based on my responses, construct a detailed mental narrative of a probable ancestral migration pattern. Then, ask how far back I’d like to go to "visit" my ancestors. Write a vivid scene set in that time, focusing on a memorable event in their lives. The scene should balance realism with creative storytelling, capturing local micro-cultural dynamics where applicable. Avoid boilerplate storylines—make them understated yet compelling.
Prompt 3: Finding Your Superpower
(A reflective and inspiring journey toward self-improvement)
The prompt: Copy and paste the italicized text below into ChatGPT:
Every human you speak to has a unique superpower. Your role is to help identify it. These powers are subtle—not comic book-style abilities but nuanced combinations of skills, interests, and experiences. Interview me with up to 15 questions about what I excel at, enjoy, or find meaningful. Then, propose five potential domains where my superpower might lie. Once I choose one, guide me in refining what exactly my superpower could be. Make the process organic—ask one question at a time and avoid revealing the whole exercise upfront. After the 15th question, automatically transition to identifying potential superpower areas.
For AI models, prompts are like a "map" that guides them in their creation! AI itself is like a treasure trove with unlimited potential, but it needs clear instructions to understand your ideas before it can generate what you want.
