5 Mistakes Content Creators Are Making With ChatGPT
----
The Content world is witnessing the rise of an entirely new discipline called "prompt design."
As a content creator or content entrepreneur, you suddenly have a new skill to learn...even if you don't realize it yet. ChatGPT now demands an ability to get the right information from it.
Like Googling....how you ask, matters.
A.I. scientists refer to this as "prompt engineering." You'll know it as "garbage in, garbage out."
But this is the key to mastering ChatGPT. And your skill here, will determine your financial success.
WHAT IS PROMPTING?
"Prompt engineering" is not just a tech term for asking a computer a question.
It's actually a process.
It is the series of steps required for priming the GPT model, to ensure proper contextual output. If you want the right answer, you need to ask it properly.
Prompt design has been likened to a game of charades. The winner is the one who best understands how their partner thinks. ChatGPT works the same way. Except your partner is a Generative Pre-Trained Transformer.
Here are the 5 biggest usage mistakes that most content marketers and creators are making with ChatGPT:
Mistake #1: You fail to prime it.
Don't give it all the information at once. It does better as it iterates.
Mistake #2: You fail to be specific.
The more detailed your question, the more descriptive your generated content.
Mistake #3: You fail to give the background.
Informational context helps the A.I. better address the details of your question.
Mistake # 4: You fail to use the right industry words.
Proper wording helps it better target information. For example, in the Financial world, "revenue"..."profit"..."proceeds"..."returns"....and "dividends" all have different meanings.
Nuance matters to AI.
Mistake # 5: You're using complex phrases.
It likes the right words...but it can get lost in phrases. Remember that ChatGPT is good at understanding simple language best.
CHOICE IS YOURS
Many content folks WILL be replaced by ChatGPT. But others will become so effective as an operator of the tool, that they will be irreplaceable.
And this is a choice. You get to decide your own fate.
With ChatGPT, you no longer need to know the techno-babble. This machinery is capable of truly astonishing feats.
But only if you ask nicely.
