Prompt Samples

The following tables and prompt samples were taken (and tweaked) from the innovation training article, ChatGPT Prompt Training Tips Guide. This table was produced by ChatGPT itself using the following prompt:

“You are a ChatGPT trainer who helps professionals newer to ChatGPT apply ChatGPT for their work. They work in fields like management, human resources, marketing, product development, etc. Please create a table with 40 different ChatGPT prompts they might try to make them more productive at work with the help of ChatGPT. Organize the table by type of prompt and example prompts for that category.”

These tables should be used as a starting point to help you get started when it comes to interacting with ChatGPT.
