Develop a detailed 'mega prompt' for ChatGPT that includes a list of banned words, phrases, and common LLM patterns to avoid. Use this prompt to review and edit your human-written drafts, resulting in sharper, more authentic content.
with Claire Vo
Start your mega prompt by creating a running list of words and phrases you want the AI to avoid. This forces the AI to be more specific and clear, steering it away from generic marketing clichés. Examples include:
* game changing
* innovative
* delve into
* super
* We're excited to...
Add rules to your prompt that call out the structural and stylistic habits of AI-generated content. Explicitly telling the AI to avoid these patterns helps produce a more human-sounding voice. Examples to ban include:
* The phrase: It's not just X, it's Y.
* Overusing M-dashes.
* Using numbered lists for everything (e.g., First, do this. Second, do that...).
* Unnecessary bulleted lists.
Use the mega prompt as an editor, not a ghostwriter. Follow this three-step process for best results:
1. **Write the First Draft**: Get your own ideas and voice down first by writing a complete draft yourself.
2. **Use AI as a Reviewer**: Paste your draft into ChatGPT along with your mega prompt.
3. **Refine and Finalize**: Review the AI's suggestions. The AI will act as a smart editor, catching banned phrases and polishing the text without removing your original voice and creativity.
