Today we will cover :
Using tailored chat gpt prompts to speed productivity, acting as your personal assistant. Currently this has helped me in my business by freeing up my time with sending emails to hotels and agencies. Allowing me to focus more on creative projects and reading.
Exploring collective existence in society, different outlooks on ignorance, axiomatic foundations, conscious doubt. As well as relationships between extroverted and introverted personalities. We will be pulling from the book Rain and the Rhinoceros, and multiple trusted research sources.
Weekly creative moodboard, covering select inspiration in visual arts. Artists to keep on the radar.
Last but not least, we will be adding some of our favorite poems of the week, spanning through multiple thought principles. Plus, a poem written by yours truly.
Collective Existence
As individuals, our thought patterns and self-realization is based in our interpretation of everyday surroundings and experiences. Albeit, Everyday media consumption puts us into a reality aside from our intuitional core. We are dealing with urges that are common in our human anatomy, feel good chemicals that are part of us, that give us meaning and depth. But now they are being triggered by a new digitally native appetite. Our outlooks and how we interact with humans is highly variable. Personally, I find it hard to initiate conversation, but once it starts, I can tango until tomorrow. Today, I’m wanting to share some passages that put these things into unique perspective. I chose a highlight from the book Rain and the Rhinoceros, by Thomas Merton. Join me, on my notion page, and read over our selected page below.
Also, here’s some great research papers about these topics!
Productivity Based Prompts
Prompts play a crucial role in enhancing the efficiency of working with chat-based AI models like GPT-3. These prompts are essentially the input or instructions provided to the model to generate a desired response or perform a specific task. Here's why prompts are important and how they can help speed up productivity, drawing insights from research papers, personal experience and practical applications:
1. Task Specification: Prompts serve as a clear way to specify the task or generate context for the AI model. Research, such as the original GPT-3 paper by OpenAI, highlights that clear instructions and context in prompts are essential for guiding the model to provide relevant and coherent responses. Tell the AI EXACTLY what you want done, and how to go about it!
2. Productivity Enhancement: Prompts allow users to quickly convey their intent or request to the AI model. This can significantly speed up the process of generating content, answering questions, or performing tasks compared to more complex and lengthy interactions.
3. Customization: Research shows that prompts can be tailored to suit specific use cases or industries. For instance, in medical or legal domains, prompts can be designed to include domain-specific terminology, ensuring that the AI model generates contextually relevant responses.
4. Bias Mitigation: Researchers are increasingly exploring how prompts can be designed to reduce biases in AI-generated content. By carefully crafting prompts, developers can guide the model towards providing fair and unbiased information.
5. Efficient Content Generation: In content creation tasks, prompts can help content creators overcome writer's block by providing a starting point or generating ideas. This can be particularly useful for generating blog posts, articles, or creative writing.
6. Translation and Language Tasks: In translation and language-related tasks, prompts can specify source and target languages, making it easier to instruct the model to perform translation or language generation tasks.
7. Programming Assistance: Developers often use prompts to get code snippets or programming-related assistance. AI models can generate code based on programming prompts, which can save time and effort in coding tasks.
8. Reducing Iteration: Effective prompts can reduce the need for multiple iterations when interacting with the model. By providing a well-structured prompt, users are more likely to receive the desired response in the first attempt.
9. Enhanced User Experience: When using AI models in customer support or chatbots, prompts can ensure that users receive prompt and relevant responses. This improves the overall user experience and customer satisfaction.
10. Iterative Improvement: As researchers and developers gain more experience with prompts, they can refine and improve prompt design based on user feedback and real-world use cases. This iterative process helps in fine-tuning AI model interactions over time.
Here are some of my favorite prompts that help real-world uses. Especially creatives and small business owners such as myself:

This has truly helped me recently and I’m excited to share more with you about my journey!
The multiple shades of blue, there was multiple shades of you. A silent dissatisfaction when you weren’t the cause of a reaction. With beauty all around all you only truly heard the sound of your inner voice. Obsessed with your face, with such haste you defiled anyone that you thought could challenge your place. Past ego, you tried to manipulate your fate, love or hate, whatever it took to make you feel great. But in the end you noticed it was only to make you feel safe, but then it was too late.
A poem with deep meaning to a past personal experiences, a perfect cascade from our collective existence topic. Through life, I, as many others have ran into someone with a narcissistic complex. In my belief nobody is purely a narcissus, but is on a narcissistic spectrum. This poem was derived from an photographic artwork I created in Berlin, Germany. Which was inspired by the ancient greek story of narcissus, and urged to take a deep dive in my personal experiences, to write something that was intuitively correct to me.
Many of us find that we have squandered our own creative energies by investing disproportionately in the lives, hopes, dreams, and plans of others. Their lives have obscured and detoured our own. As we consolidate a core through our withdrawal process, we become more able to articulate our own boundaries, dreams, and authentic goals. Our personal flexibility increases while our malleability to the whims of others decreases. We experience a heightened sense of autonomy and possibility.
The most potent muse of all is our own inner child.
Our inner child, creative essence is a ravishing spirit. It wants to run free without any thoughts of what is to come. Purely grounded in the current moment. When we surround ourselves around people, places, and situations that do not serve us and our full expression, we in turn suppress that spirit. And nothing is worth that. As we grow, we get to strengthen our core, experience and become flexible within our reality. Always choose your freedom and love within that.
