Get a 10/10 Prompt Every Time: The ChatGPT Prompt Engineering Hack

Here's a quick prompting hack that I use that saves me errors, and it works with any prompt. AI will always give you a response, but better prompts get better answers. So, how can you easily improve all your prompts?

It's simple: ask AI to rate your prompt on a scale of 1 to 10, and then ask, "What would make this a 10 out of 10?" Let me show you.

Let's say you need to write a follow-up email after a meeting. Your basic prompt might be: "Write an email summarizing the meeting's discussion points." You get a response, but it's not quite there. Maybe it's too bland or doesn't pop.

Here's the hack: Instead of reworking the prompt yourself, ask, "Rate this prompt on a scale of 1 to 10." If it gives you a 3 out of 10, a 6 out of 10, or even a 9 out of 10, follow up with, "What would make it a 10 out of 10?"

And there we go. It tells you exactly what's missing and how to make your prompt a 10 out of 10. You can even ask it to redraft the prompt for you. Faster, sharper results with less trial and error. Try it on your next prompt and let me know if that helps.
