I pushed my ChatGPT prompting to the LIMIT in a prompting challenge.
You've never used a prompt like this before...
Behold ----> "Talk to Reality Shifter"
Link to the encoded prompt is in the next tweet.
(Spend 3 minutes having fun!)
My newsletter keeps skewing long.
Contemplating splitting into two sends per week:
- 1 deep dive
- 1 set of tips
Would you rather get a 7 minute, value-packed email, or two 3.5 minute emails?

Just created an ChatGPT mega-prompt sequence that creates $100M Offers using Alex Hormozi's frameworks.
Going to share it with 5,000+ in my newsletter this weekend.

(Hey
Could use newsletter inspiration
I need some examples of types of businesses and their target customers.
In my last issue, I used "SaaS property management software" in my main example.
What are types of businesses you'd like to see used in my strategies/tactics illustrations?
So, what do you all want me to do today?
A) I finish my newsletter and write a thread, both of which share free knowledge to help you be more successful and make $$$
B) I spend hours downloading PDF receipts on Stripe one at a time
Detail 1:
After breaking $100K in profit, I must have triggered a fraud alert.
Want proof of how I made my money.
I sent documents but they want 1,000+ receipts and a nonexistant W-2.
Gave me 5 days but locked my account after 1.
Who here thinks I'm laundering money?
Bank's review team just locked me out of my account because they don't understand solopreneurship.
Definitely avoid Chime if you plan to make lots of money.
Comment if I should share more (or get access to my $ back)
Here’s the idea:
• If an AI can write a paragraph, it can write a section.
• If an AI can write a section, it can write a chapter.
• If an AI can write a chapter, AI CAN WRITE A BOOK.

to stay far ahead of the curve on AI and content creation.
And please COMMENT with your thoughts, or if you enjoyed this post to share it.
RTs are nice, but comments are where it's at these days:

As you can see, still many tricks to figure out.
Even for V1 of this experiment, I have a higher bar for quality than most people.
But trust me: I'll figure out this AI book-writing workflow.
And when GPT-4 comes out, I'll be ready to rock n' roll.
🚫 Consolidation & Editing
While the AI can improve it's own writing, it has a hard time spotting the very problems it introduces.
Bringing all this content together coherently still feels like it will take a human touch.
Each of my books will go through a human editor.
🚫 Repetition
Not to repeat myself, but...
The biggest challenge is repetition.
There's just so much rehashing of old information, and no way to keep the AI up-to-date on all the things it's already said.
I have a plan for this though. ;)
😐 Voice and tone
Style remains hard to keep on track for long-form content.
When a regular GPT-3.5 or GPT-4 becomes available, I look forward to working with a model that isn’t so heavily tuned to write in a certain CHATy way (a style I don't enjoy).
✅ Outlining
Very happy with my brainstorming and outlining prompts.
ChatGPT does incredibly well. I've got amazing outlines.
I could stop here and just speed-write books using some of my old writing processes for writing/dictating at 3,000+ words an hour.
So, status update.
How close am I to creating a system where an AI can write good non-fiction books?
(My goal is to be able to produce a full book rough draft in a single day of prompting.)
(They haven't revealed exactly how it works.)
Managing whether to start a fresh conversation or keep one where the results have gone off track became its own challenge.
📙 Challenge - Memory:
ChatGPT has some sense of memory within a chat.
It is limited to about 3,000 words (4,000 tokens).
The memory may also use search functions and something called embeddings to maintain coherence over a long conversation.
Generally, when writing, clarity is a good thing.
The problem is, we’ve already defined those terms. We’ve already set that stage.
Being redundant doesn't enhance clarity. It bogs it down.
Each sub-section of content faces this problem.
📙 The biggest challenge?
Repetition.
Every time you ask an AI to write anything, it wants to explain itself.
It wants to define unknown terms, and set up arguments and ideas for logical flow.
In retrospect:
V1 of a system to automatically create specific, desirable compilations of knowledge should probably take more than a week.
Even if it takes a year, this system will be worthwhile.
📙 Not one problem, but 17+:
I found I need to engineer about 17 amazing mega-prompts or prompt sequences.
Each one has the potential to be a multi-day project.
My original timeline of one week for this project quickly fell apart.
(Plus, downstream you may realize the AI needs a different set of information to proceed.
And so you return to an earlier step and tweak it.
Sounds irritating. But I think it's fun to solve this puzzle.)
Every single command is a new prompt engineering challenge.
Each requires experimenting with a prompt until you get the results you’re looking for.
This graphic shows an over-simplification of my chapter-writing process:
📙 Chapters:
Each chapter is as long as multiple blog posts.
At this length, AIs struggle to stay coherent, follow the outline, and reach the desired word count.
So I use chapter templates: a series of prompts designed to coax the AI into writing with examples and flavor.
📙 My process so far:
Create a concept for the book in overarching topics.
Outlining this way ensures the book has a logical and pleasant flow.
You want to understand the general arc the book will follow.
Then each topic can be broken down into chapters.
📙 AI long-form writing process:
You can’t just tell ChatGPT “write me a best-selling business book” and then keep encouraging it to continue until you reach 50,000 words.
It'll both fight you about your goal AND become incomprehensible in the process.
