I have a list of prompts that are more specific than “critique it”, like “[The following is a blog post draft. Please create a bullet point list with any typos or grammar errors.]”, “Was there any unexplained jargon in that essay?”, “Was any aspect of that essay confusing?”, “Are there particular parts of this essay that would be difficult for non-native English speakers to follow?”, “Please create a bullet-point list of obscure words that I use in the essay, which a non-native English speaker might have difficulty understanding.”, (If it’s an FAQ:) “What other FAQ questions might I add?”, “What else should I add to this essay?”, Add a summary/tldr at the top, then: “Is the summary at the top adequate?”
Does it tell me anything useful? Meh. Sometimes it finds a few things that I’m happy to know about. I very often don’t even bother using it at all. (This is with GPT-4, I haven’t tried anything else.)
I suspect the above prompts could be improved. I haven’t experimented much. I’m very interested to hear what other people have been doing.
