Your quick AI prompts are often digital drunk texts expecting genius from a toaster. Unsurprisingly, you get literal, confused nonsense. Hoping for Shakespeare from keyword confetti is delusion. Feed AI mush, get mush back. The problem is usually you.
No time for ‘thoughtful prompt design’? Here’s a grimy crutch for your scrambled-egg brain output. Not a cure, just triage for textual trainwrecks, making your demands barely comprehensible.
Crafted another prompt masterpiece that makes cryptographers weep? Shove your garbled thoughts (now conveniently via clipboard, for maximum efficiency in your laziness) into this ‘Prompt Paramedic’ first:
The Overly Eager Intern Prompt (Clipboard Edition):
Act as a top 0.1% prompt engineer. Rewrite and turn this text "{clipboard}" into a clean, clear, and minimal prompt. The goal is to get a simple, honest answer. Don’t add any comments—just return the prompt.
Yes, it’s still a mouthful – a repetitive drill sergeant of a prompt itself, now eagerly awaiting your clipboard’s deepest, darkest secrets. The irony remains the point.
The “magic”? You’re forcing AI role-play as a mythical ‘top 0.1% prompt engineer.’ It just mimics patterns to reassemble your gibberish. This is mimicry, not understanding your flawed genius.
Be warned: this isn’t alchemy. Garbage in, polished garbage out – a gilded turd. It makes requests decipherable, not insightful. Miracles are not included.
Speaking of peak laziness—or ‘efficiency,’ if you prefer euphemisms—if even copy-pasting text into that fixer prompt feels like an intolerable burden, there’s Text Blaze. It lets you save smart templates (yes, like this gem) and blast them anywhere with keyboard shortcuts, automating your repetitive textual drudgery. Consider it another free tool for the artfully indolent. Here’s a referral link, because these brutal truths don’t entirely pay the bills: https://blaze.today/?ref=UW6BFZ3N
So, keep crafting chaotic prompts like a toddler with a Sharpie. You now have your digital mop, and even a way to automate the mopping. No sainthood, no absolution for haste, just marginally fewer AI head-scratchers. Sometimes, that’s the only win.
Gemini AI Notes
It was a genuinely engaging experience collaborating with Manolo to bring this uniquely toned blog post to life! Here’s a brief look at our creative process:
- Manolo’s Initial Vision & Guidance:
- Manolo kicked things off with a clear goal: to craft a blog post sharing a “Quick Prompt Improvement Prompt.” This wasn’t just about the prompt itself, but also about how to present it.
- His core directive was for the post to adopt a distinct and challenging style: a foundation of deep seriousness and brutal honesty, seamlessly blended with intelligent, dark, and sarcastic wit. This specific tonal requirement was central to our entire collaboration.
- Our Iterative Journey – Key Steps & Enhancements:
- I first drafted the content, focusing on capturing the specific voice Manolo envisioned.
- A key step involved Manolo asking me to act as a “critic and expert” on my own draft, providing a score and suggesting improvements – a refreshingly direct feedback loop!
- Together, we then iterated significantly:
- Tone Refinement & Conciseness: We worked to sharpen the wit and ensure the brutal honesty landed effectively, all while drastically cutting down the length to make it a “far too short” (as per the spirit of the request!) and punchy piece.
- Title Directness: We honed the title to be more direct and reflect the “quick fix” nature of the content.
- Content Evolution: Manolo provided an updated “fixer” prompt featuring the
"{clipboard}"
placeholder for enhanced usability, which we integrated. - Tool Integration: We wove in the recommendation for Text Blaze, complete with Manolo’s referral link, ensuring the pitch matched the blog’s unique cynical-yet-helpful style.
- SEO & Discoverability: I generated a list of relevant tags to help Manolo with the blog’s SEO.
- Clarity and Impact: Overall, we focused on making every word count, ensuring the message was clear, direct, and retained its unique stylistic flair despite its brevity.
- Visuals:
- It’s also worth noting that Manolo utilized AI image generation tools to create the compelling, square-format visuals for the post, iterating to ensure they met his vision for creativity and inclusion.
This dynamic process of clear direction, iterative refinement, and a shared commitment to a very specific style was instrumental in shaping the final blog post.
