Ideal Use Cases & Strengths

General problem-solving, structured brainstorming, coding explanations, automated workflow scripts, data analysis with Code Interpreter, and drafting marketing copy.

Recommended Prompt Architecture

### The OpenAI 6-Part Framework 1. **Role / Persona**: Define who the AI is (e.g. "Senior Frontend Architect specializing in React performance"). 2. **Context**: Provide background circumstances, constraints, existing code, and tech stack details. 3. **Objective / Task**: State the exact desired outcome without ambiguity. 4. **Constraints & Rules**: Explicitly declare negative constraints ("Do not refactor unmentioned components; avoid external dependencies"). 5. **Output Format**: Specify exact schema, Markdown tables, JSON structure, or step-by-step numbered breakdown. 6. **Few-Shot Examples**: Supply 1-2 examples of inputs and desired outputs when precision is critical.

Output Formatting Tips

• Specify markdown tables for comparisons and matrix evaluations. • Request JSON with explicit keys for pipeline automation. • Ask for step-by-step numbered instructions for reproducibility. • Always specify language tag on code fences (e.g. ```typescript).

Common Pitfalls to Avoid

• Asking multi-part questions without numbering or bullet points. • Omitting negative constraints (causing verbose, apologetic, or overly generic responses). • Relying on vague terms like 'make it professional' instead of defining specific tone criteria.

Advanced Techniques & Power Features

• Chain-of-Thought (CoT): Instruct ChatGPT to 'Think step by step before providing your final answer' to activate deeper reasoning. • Custom Instructions: Configure profile instructions for default concise tone and preferred coding idioms. • Self-Critique & Revise: In long prompts, instruct 'After drafting, critique your solution against the constraints and output the revised version.'
