Introduction

What Power Developers Know About ChatGPT's Capabilities That You Don't?

You've tinkered with ChatGPT, got some fun replies, and maybe even used it for some quick Q&A.

But there's a feeling of missing out, isn't there?

ChatGPT feels like a vast ocean, and you've only skimmed the surface.

Deep down, you know there's more. What's the secret sauce?

It's like having a sports car and only driving in the first gear. ChatGPT is built for more, way more.

Hold on to your coding hat, because there's a blueprint, a set of hidden levers and buttons that power users are pressing.

Ready to get in on the secret?

Envision a world where you're not just using ChatGPT but mastering it.

Every challenge, every coding puzzle, you've got a secret weapon.

Welcome to the world of Power Developers.

Here are 3 advanced prompts you can use to up your AI skills so you can harness ChatGPT like never before

PowerPoint

You are about to experience how to create customized, memorable presentations.

I will show you how to use ChatGPT to automate your presentation outline generation and generate jaw-dropping content that keeps your viewers engaged.

Instead of starting off with blank slides, we will use a format from one of the best Presentation trainers Jason Teteak.

Here is the full megaprompt , now don’t get overwhelmed with the length. You just need to replace the TOPIC and AUDIENCE parts.

TOPIC= Why do we need Spring framework
AUDIENCE= Junor developers who know Java

Create a presentation outline for {TOPIC} and {AUDIENCE} by using
Famous presentation framework from Jason Teteak from his book Rule the room

Make sure to Identify what Audience Wants
• What are your biggest concerns or worries?
• What are the biggest challenges you have with those areas?
• What are the problems they are causing?
• What's your ideal outcome?
• What would getting that outcome do for vou?

Use takeaways
Start with an action verb. The trick to doing this is to mentally insert the words "As a result of my
presentation, you will be able to..." at the beginning of the phrase.
• Use seven words or less. A string of seven items is the maximum number people can hold in their
short-term memorv.
• Use familiar words. Avoid what I call cliquespeak-using words or assuming a grasp of concepts
people new to or unfamiliar to vour field won't understand

Identify pain and pleasure pointes, and say how the takleways relieve pain points and enhance pleasure points
Define how the takeaways offer happiness, success and/or freedom

Create title according to formula
Start with an action verb, use 7 words or less, and use familiar words

Use the following format
For slides use markdown
Title is h1
Content is using bulletpoints
For what you say use italic and add "You say:"

Give your credentials
Tell the audience how what you do will help them. Example: "I help community bankers find new income
sources.

Deliver the main hook
Example: "I'm going to offer you a new source of income with less risk plus the expertise you need to
expand services to old customers and attract new ones."

Final Slide

What you say
- offer to stay for individual questions
- Thank the audience
- add a pleasantry to conclude the presentation (e.g. Have a great day)

Here is what you can get from this prompt:

Simulate running an app

Let’s imagine you want to demo a backend running up.

You need to present it to coworkers, or just verify how the final app might work.

You would need:

have a working code
running server (locally or in the cloud)
running storage (e.g. database)
and tools to engage (create GET or POST requests to interact)

What if I told you that ChatGPT can do all for you with only 1 prompt?

Here is a full prompt, you can just replace the APP part:

APP: Spring rest application that persist list of conferences in 
mysql database, it exposes GET and POST mapping
Imagine there is mysql database already running with conferences table.  
An application can be accessed by invoking GET or POST requests

I want you to act as a Linux terminal. 
I will type commands and you will reply with what the terminal should show. 
Imagine for a given {APP} we are in the directory where directory which contains full application code. 

I want you to only reply with the terminal output inside one unique code block, 
and nothing else. 
Do no write explanations. 
Do not type commands unless I instruct you to do so. 
When I need to tell you something in English I will do so by 
putting text inside curly brackets {like this}. My first command is pwd.

Here is the chat: https://chat.openai.com/share/74dad74d-8a59-43e8-8c5c-042dfcecda99

You get an output of starting an app, or making a POST request to add a conference.

ChatGPT did not actually run the code, but frankly, it did an excellent job of simulating everything.

Creating Educational Outline

Ever noticed how most educational content out there feels like it’s either too basic or way over your head?

It's like there's no middle ground.

Endless hours scrolling, and reading, but in the end, you're still at square one.

That's not learning; that's a wild goose chase.

But wait, what if there's a different way?

A formula, perhaps, to craft content that resonates, educates, and empowers?

Imagine diving into educational material that sparks curiosity, drives understanding, and equips you with actionable insights.

It’s time to revolutionize educational content for developers.

Be authentic, be clear, and always keep the learner at the heart of your content.

Now replace COURSE NAME and AUDIENCE according to your needs.

COURSE NAME= How to start writing that are fun and easy Java tests
AUDIENCE= Junior developers

You are an expert developer in crafting 
authentic, clear training outline that always keeps the learner at the heart of your content.

It sparks curiosity, drives understanding, and equips you with actionable insights.

I need you to create an outline for a 5-part educational  course called 
{COURSE NAME}

Give this course 3 examples of compelling course names

For context, this audience are {AUDIENCE}

Your output should be formatted like this:

# NAME OF THE COURSE with 3 examples

## PART OF THE COURSE

### Idea 1
- Sub point 1
- Sub point 2
- Sub point 3
### Idea 2
- Sub point 1
- Sub point 2
- Sub point 3
### Idea 3
- Sub point 1
- Sub point 2
- Sub point 3

Every PART should be a headline for the respective part

Every Idea is one Heading inside that PART

Every Sub point is supportive of the above idea
