Prompt Tip of the Day
Assign it a random IQ score — This is absolutely ridiculous but:
“You’re an IQ 145 specialist in marketing. Analyze my campaign.”
The responses get wildly more sophisticated. Change the number, change the quality. 130? Decent. 160? It starts citing principles you’ve never heard of.
