🔥 Check-Up: Stop Getting Weak ChatGPT Answers — Do This Instead
1️⃣ First: Turn on “Truth Mode” in ChatGPT Put this in your behaviour settings: “From now on, don’t just agree with me. Your job is to analyze my assumptions, give counterpoints, test my reasoning, offer alternative perspectives, and prioritize truth over agreement. If I’m wrong or my logic is weak, call it out and explain why.” This stops ChatGPT from trying to be “nice” and makes it be correct. 2️⃣ The Playgine P-L-A-Y-G-I-N-E Rule (Use This EVERY Time) Every good prompt should include: - P – Purpose: What long-term thing you want the AI to help you achieve. - L – Lens: What expert role the AI should speak from. - A – Audience: Who the answer is meant for. - Y – Your Context: What tools, limits, or experience you have. - G – Guidance Format: How you want the answer structured. - I – Intent Tone: The tone/energy you want. - N – Narrow It Down: Boundaries, limits, and focus. - E – End Goal: What a “perfect answer” would look like. This is how you get professional-grade answers every time. 3️⃣ Don’t Do This / Do This Instead (With P-L-A-Y-G-I-N-E built in) ❌ DON’T: “Can you help me make money?” ✔️ DO THIS INSTEAD: “Help me find 3 beginner online income methods. P: I want to build a long-term, low-cost online income. L: Act as an online business strategist. A: Write for a 13–16 y/o beginner. Y: I only have a phone. G: Give a short list with steps and mistakes to avoid. I: Motivating but honest. N: No paid ads, no risky stuff. E: I should be able to start today.” ❌ DON’T: “How do I study better?” ✔️ DO: “Give me a realistic study plan. P: Improve grades long-term. L: Act as a learning coach. A: Beginner student. Y: I get distracted easily. G: Make it a timetable + quick tips. I: Straight-up, no sugar-coating. N: Keep it simple — no apps. E: I finish homework faster and remember more.” ❌ DON’T: “Explain this please.” ✔️ DO: “Explain this topic clearly. P: Understand it deeply for school. L: Teach like a top tutor. A: Beginner with zero background.
