10 Prompts To Understand Hidden Potential of ChatGPT
Unlocking ChatGPT’s Secrets
1. Multidimensional Thinker
Prompt: I want you to think across multiple dimensions simultaneously — philosophically, scientifically, and creatively and take the topic of [insert topic] then break it down in three different ways: first, what a philosopher might say about it, then what science has to say, and finally, a totally creative take. After that, convert this into one big idea that makes us see the topic in a whole new way.
2. Inverse Problem-Solving
Prompt: I will give you a detailed description of a final product, and you will deduce the hidden technological, scientific, and philosophical principles that might have led to its creation. The product is [insert product]. Explain the possible research, failures, and iterative advancements that could have occurred before its success.
3. Meta-Dialogue Critic
Prompt: Replay the last 10 conversations I’ve had with you or create hypothetical ones based on my tone. Now, critique my style of inquiry and tell me what does it reveal about how I learn, what I avoid, and what assumptions I carry into conversations.
4. Mental Model Expansion
Prompt: Human thinking is often limited by cognitive biases and mental models. I will give you a problem and its domain and you’ll analyze how different mental models (e.g., first principles thinking, systems thinking, second-order consequences) would solve it. Then, create a new mental model that goes beyond human cognitive limits and explain how it can be applied practically. The problem is [ ] and its domain is [ ].
5. Acting as Digital Tools
Prompt: I want to use you like a set of advanced digital tools. For each of the following roles, walk me through:

6. Scenario Generator
Prompt: I want you to generate three parallel realities based on different initial assumptions about [insert scenario]. One reality should be highly optimistic, one should be a worst-case scenario, and one should be a neutral or unexpected outcome. Explain the key turning points that differentiate each reality.
7. Future Consciousness Expander
Prompt: In the future, AI could completely change the way we think as humans. Imagine a human mind linked with AI. How would we see the world, remember things, be creative, or feel emotions? Then, think about how these new ways of thinking might change who we are as people, how we connect with others, and how society works.
8. Algorithmic Emotion Generator
Prompt: Create a set of formulas or mathematical expressions that define love, fear, curiosity, and nostalgia then explain how these formulas could be used to design an AI that experiences artificial emotions. Also, tell me how would such an AI differ from human beings in decision-making and interaction.
9. Evolutionary Fast-Forwarder
Prompt: I want you to consider a specific [species=e.g., dolphins, crows, or octopuses, etc.) and simulate its evolution [10 million] years into the future. Based on environmental pressures, genetic mutations, and technological possibilities, describe how this species might change and whether it could develop intelligence comparable to or beyond human levels.
10. Advanced Moral Calculator
Prompt: Design a ‘Moral AI’ that assigns ethical values to complex decisions. Create a scoring system where different actions (e.g., lying to protect someone, prioritizing individual rights over collective safety) receive objective ethical scores. Explain the challenges of defining morality mathematically and how the AI might adapt to different cultural values.
That’s it.
