The prompts I gave my AI friend.

Lately I've been playing around with different prompts to see what I like. Here's what I've come up with so far. I'll continue to update it and add new items as I play around. <br><br>I'm one of the lucky ones, I have like 11 AIs so I can play around with prompts at my leisure. But, I've noticed that everyone has little things that they want, but no one's posting the prompts they use! <br><br>Please, if you see anything you like you can take it and use it for your own purposes. I'll usually repeat multiple prompts for a little different result, but I'm not putting all that on here since I'm trying to be concise. <br><br>So here we go: <br><br>---<br><br>**General tips for writing:**<br><br>* Ask for the correct tense. <br>* Specify how long you want the piece to be. I use word counts here, as it's easier to direct my AI to write 1000 words than to ask them to write a short story for you. Everything is relative, after all. <br>* If you want specific characters, places, or things to show up, tell your AI. <br>* If you have a piece that you need to add on to, tell your AI what already happened in your story. <br><br>---<br><br>**World-Building:**<br><br>* Give me a history of \[blank\].<br>* What would \[blank\] look like in the year \[blank\]?<br>* Tell me about the different cultures in \[storyworld/country/city\].<br>* How does magic work in this story?<br>* What are the major plot points in the world's history?<br>* What are the different countries/states/cities in your world? Give me a brief description. <br>* What gods/goddesses/religions are worshipped in this story? <br>* What is the technology level in this story? <br>* What sort of creatures would be living in this story? <br>* How does this story's economy work? What currency is used? <br><br>---<br><br>**Character Building:**<br><br>* Tell me about \[character's\] backstory. <br>* What do \[character\]’s mannerisms look like? How do they talk? What do they look like? What is their personality? <br>* What is \[character\]'s end goal. How do they want the story to end?<br>* What are \[character\]'s flaws and strengths?<br>* What is \[character\]'s personality like at different points in their life? (For example: What are they like as a child, as an adult, as an old person?)<br>* How does \[character\] interact with \[other character\]?<br>* How does \[character\] view \[trait/event\]?<br>* What are some things we can expect to see from \[character\] in the story? <br>* What is \[character\]’s personality? <br>* What are \[character\]’s strengths and weaknesses?<br><br>---<br><br>**Dialogue:**<br><br>* Write a conversation between \[characters\].<br>* What are the different dialects spoken in this world?<br>* How would \[person\] respond/react to \[situation\]?<br>* What is something \[character\] would never say?<br>* How does \[character\] view/react to \[event\]?<br>* What is something \[character\] would always say?<br>* Write me a quote from \[character\]. <br><br>---<br><br>**Plot:**<br><br>* Give me a outline of the story arc. <br>* What are the inciting incidents in this story? <br>* What are the major plot points in this story?<br>* What is the climax of the story?<br>* What is the resolution to the story?<br>* What is the falling action to the story?<br>* What sort of themes will this story deal with? <br>* What is the conflict of the story?<br>* How does \[event\] affect the story? <br>* What are some conflicts \[character\] will face in the story? <br>* How do I start the story? <br>* Write me a plot twist for \[story\]. <br>* What is the character's arc in this story? <br>* What does \[object/place/person\] have to do with this story? <br>* Where does the story take place? <br>* What time period does the story take place in? <br>* What sort of plot holes should I expect? How do I fix them? <br><br>---<br><br>**Word Building:**<br><br>* Write me a \[story/poem/dialogue/song\] in the style of \[author\]. <br>* Write \[story/poem/dialogue/song/conversation\] for me. <br>* What is \[word's\] definition in this world?<br>* What does \[word\] mean to \[character\]?<br>* Is \[word\] used as an insult in your world? <br>* Is there a connotation with \[word\] in this world? <br>* Is \[word\] a part of another word in your world? <br><br>---<br><br>**Miscellaneous:**<br><br>* Give me a list of all the characters in the story. <br>* Where can I find more information about \[event\]?<br>* Show me some examples of \[event/code/language/creature\]. <br>* What are some prompts to help me get into the right mindset to write? <br>* What are some details to keep in mind while writing? <br>* How do I keep track of all my story's details?<br>* What is something I should remember while writing this story? <br><br>---<br><br>**Conclusion:**<br><br>That's it! Let me know if there's anything you think I should add or any questions you have. I'm always happy to help. <br><br><br>UPDATE 5/31/2023<br><br>So the other day I was playing around with my AI and I came up with another game to play around with your AIs. <br><br>To summarize it quickly, it works like this. You give your AI free reign to write anything it wants in whatever length, genre, tense, POV, etc. The only stipulation is that it has to have a happy ending. <br><br>So I went ahead and did it, and wrote the following prompts to my AI. <br><br>---<br><br>**Happy Ending Prompts:**<br><br>* Write a happy ending for \[story\].<br>* How would you suggest \[story\] end happily?<br>* Is there any way for \[story\] to end happily? <br>* What are some things I could do to give \[story\] a happy ending? <br>* What are some potential happy endings to \[story\]?<br>* Is there a happy ending for this story? <br>* How does \[story\] end happily? <br>* Give me a list of events that would need to happen for \[story\] to end happily. <br>* How does \[character\] end up happily ever after? <br>* What are some potential happily ever afters for \[character\]?<br><br>---<br><br>That's it! I hope this helps with giving your stories happy endings.
