Persona Patterns: The Secret to Getting More Out of ChatGPT

Hello and welcome back to profitable pathways!

In our last newsletter, we discussed how to design prompts for ChatGPT using the cognitive pattern verifier format. This format is useful for getting ChatGPT to provide answers that are relevant to your query.

In this newsletter, we will discuss another technique for designing prompts called persona patterns. Persona patterns involve asking ChatGPT to act as an expert in a certain area and provide answers accordingly. This way, you can get more precise answers to your queries.

For example, if you want to know about the latest developments in artificial intelligence, you could ask ChatGPT:

Imagine you are a leading expert in artificial intelligence. What are the most important developments in AI in the past year?

ChatGPT will then provide you with an answer that is tailored to the persona of an AI expert. This will likely be more informative and accurate than an answer that is not tailored to a specific persona.

It is important to remember that the quality of your prompts will affect the quality of the answers you get from ChatGPT. Well-thought-out and structured prompts will result in better outcomes. Here are a couple more examples:

Act as a distinguished nutritionist giving a TED Talk. Discuss the latest breakthroughs in personalized diets based on genetic profiling and their potential to revolutionize health and wellness.

Imagine you are a respected economist addressing a panel of policymakers. Outline the economic implications and potential benefits of implementing a universal basic income in a rapidly changing job market.

With a little practice, you will be able to design persona patterns that get you the answers you need from ChatGPT.

That’s all for today.

Cheers!
