Indicating Actions and Steps

Using numbered or bulleted lists is useful for outlining the steps or actions the AI should perform to generate the desired output. This approach helps break down complex tasks into smaller, more manageable steps, making it easier for ChatGPT to understand the task at hand and generate relevant output.

  1. Numbered lists: Use numbered lists to outline the steps or actions required to complete a task in a specific order. Numbered lists are useful for tasks that require a specific sequence of actions.

  2. Bulleted lists: Use bulleted lists to outline the steps or actions required to complete a task without a specific order. Bulleted lists are useful for tasks where the order of actions is not critical.

By using numbered or bulleted lists in your pseudoLang prompts, you can help ChatGPT understand the task and generate more relevant output.

Here's an example of a prompt that uses a bulleted list to outline the steps required to complete the task:

Task: Provide a list of potential grant funding opportunities for a cell biology research project.

Process:
- Determine the research project's specific focus area and research question.
- Conduct a literature review of similar projects and available grant opportunities.
- Identify potential grant funding opportunities that align with the research project's focus area.
- Evaluate each grant opportunity's eligibility requirements, application deadlines, and other factors.
- Provide a list of the top five potential grant funding opportunities for the research project, including any relevant information about eligibility, deadlines, and requirements.

In this example, the prompt uses a bulleted list to outline the steps required to complete the task. By breaking down the task into smaller, more manageable steps, the prompt guides ChatGPT toward generating more relevant output.

Using numbered or bulleted lists is useful for outlining the steps or actions required to complete a task. By breaking down complex tasks into smaller steps, you can help ChatGPT generate more accurate and useful output, ultimately saving time and effort.
