and some good prompts here as well – both her blog and a video. [Also about using Obsidian and zotero, which I’m going to have to tackle soon]
some prompts that did what I wanted it to do:
[library planning] design an advertising campaign – include branding materials and suggestions for the website for 1000 undergraduate international English speaking students attending the liberal arts university in XXXX. we want them to use the library space called the atrium more throughout the day. please keep the suggestions at a 8th grade understanding.
[chem related] explain michel addition to a 10 year old
[qualitative analysis] analyze the comments from a survey that I will paste in the next prompt. the survey was about using library resources, based on instruction students received in a prior class.
[same session as above] Of the student comments I pasted in from the survey, what percent mentioned needing more help?
This one from AI Tool Report seemed promising and did not work. Have you figured out one to imitate your style?
I will share samples of my writing, and your job is to understand it, learn it, and mimic it. Your task starts when you tell me to “BEGIN.” I’ll then share a sample of my writing, and you’ll respond “CONTINUE”. The task will continue with new examples, to which you’ll reply “CONTINUE” each time. The task will end only when I write “FINISHED”. Until that time, you can’t change your response. You will pay attention to the style, tone, meter, and characteristics of my writing based on the samples I provide. I will end the by requesting a new piece of writing emulating my style.
