The Power of Prompts
Prompts, How & What
What is a Prompt?
A prompt is asking a question or giving a command to a smart assistant. You tell SafeGPT what you need, and it helps you.
Why Use Prompts?
By giving a clear prompt, you help SafeGPT understand exactly what you are looking for. It is the key to a useful result.
Do I need to be a prompt engineer to use SafeGPT? No, you don't. You can ask questions to SafeGPT as you would to any other person. Additionally, we offer many features that do not require prompting skills and are easy to use. However, if you take the time to learn how to create effective prompts, you will find that you can achieve better results.
How to create powerful prompts?
Here are some rules to follow for creating good prompts:
Make sure you are clear and specific: Tell exactly what kind of text you want to write or edit, including the topic, tone, and purpose.
Use examples: If you want a certain text style or tone, provide examples of similar texts that appeal to you.
Ask targeted questions: If you need specific information, formulate direct questions that SafeGPT can use to give relevant suggestions.
Provide context: Explain why you are writing or editing the text, who the target audience is, and what message you want to convey.
Use keywords: Use relevant keywords that reflect the content, atmosphere, and style of the text.
Be concise: Keep the explanation short and to the point to avoid confusion and maintain focus.
Use positive language: Formulate the explanation positively to help SafeGPT generate suggestions that align with a positive message.
Make it personal: If you are writing a text for a specific person or occasion, provide personal details to help SafeGPT empathize with the situation.
Specify the desired outcome: Indicate what you hope to achieve with the text, for example, persuading the reader, informing about a topic, or providing entertainment.
By following these rules, you can create more effective and targeted prompts.
Examples of Prompts
Here are some example prompts for different types of textual processing:
Summary: "Can you provide a summary of the following article on climate change?"
Paraphrasing: "Can you rewrite this sentence using different words without changing the original meaning?"
Requesting information: "What arguments are mentioned in this essay against genetic modification?"
Text analysis: "Analyze the tone and perspective of the author in this article."
Creative writing: "Create a dialogue between two characters arguing over a lost book."
Corrections and improvements: "How would you improve this text to make it more convincing?"
Comparisons: "Compare the arguments for and against the use of artificial intelligence in healthcare as described in these articles." "What are the similarities and differences between the two characters in this novel?"
By using these prompts, you can practice and improve various aspects of textual processing.
Writing Prompts for Images
The basics of a prompt remain the same, whether you want text or image as output. But if you want an image as output, you need to be even more specific and at the same time not too specific, as that can limit the creativity of models like DALL-E.
Be goal-oriented: determine what the purpose of the image is.
Use active language: use active verbs and concrete nouns to create a dynamic image that captures the imagination.
Be descriptive: describe colors, shapes, textures, and atmospheres to sketch a clear picture.
Specify the color palette: provide a specific color palette or describe a range of colors you want to set the tone of the image. For example, “Use warm autumn colors, such as orange, rust-red, and golden yellow” or “Limit the palette to monochrome blue tones for a calm and serene atmosphere.”
Provide context: offer enough information about where and when the image takes place. Is it in a futuristic city, a trendy office, or in outer space?
Stimulate emotion: indicate what emotion or mood the image should convey. This can strongly influence the direction of creativity.
Specify the perspective and describe the composition: suggest a specific perspective, for example, bird’s-eye view or worm’s-eye view, or a close-up versus a wide shot.
Define the focal point: clearly indicate what the primary focal point of the image should be.
Be consistent: if the image is part of a series or theme, indicate that the color usage should be consistent with the rest of the works. Providing earlier work helps.
Create depth: encourage the use of techniques to create depth, such as atmospheric perspective, overlapping elements, and playing with light and shadow.
Use metaphors and symbolism: if you want to explore abstract concepts, try using metaphors or symbols.
Limiting factors: if necessary, set constraints to focus creativity, such as using only two colors or excluding certain elements.
