Write, rewrite, edit, and rewrite with a single prompt

Today's prompt is the ultimate guide to making ChatGPT or any chatbot tool write great pieces of content for you.

October 31, 2024

One of my favorite types of writing prompts uses a multi-step process. We don’t highlight these a lot, but today we’re going to show you a quick way to have any tool edit itself in a single prompt with a step-by-step list.

Today’s Prompt: Write, rewrite, edit, then rewrite again.

Step 1: Compose a 200-word article discussing the importance of creating detailed prompts when interacting with AI. The article should highlight the differences between human communication, which often includes implicit context, and the explicit context that AI systems require to operate effectively.

Step 2: After completing the article, revise it to make it more direct, succinct, and focused. The aim is to streamline the content while retaining its core message.

Step 3: Act as an editor and look through the revised output from Step 2. Make suggestions of sentences, phrases, and wording that could be edited to make the piece say something impactful that evokes emotion

Step 4: Rewrite the output from Step 2 based on the editor notes from Step 3.

Why we like this prompt:

  1. Clear Step-by-Step Structure: Each step is clearly numbered and logically sequenced. This structure informs the model to take on one task at a time.

  2. Requirements for Each Step: It specifies distinct goals for each step: composition (Step 1), conciseness (Step 2), editorial review (Step 3), and rewriting (Step 4). This makes it clear what is expected and prevents ambiguity.

  3. Iterative Refinement : By setting up an iterative review and rewrite process, it works in multiple steps to create a polished piece of writing.
