In today’s column, I am continuing my ongoing coverage of prompt engineering strategies and tactics that aid in getting the most out of using generative AI apps such as ChatGPT, GPT-4, Bard, Gemini , Claude, etc. The focus this time will be on the use of gamification to improve your prompting skillset.
Suppose you have to mow the lawn. The task is boring, and you procrastinate accordingly. Here’s what you might do. As you mow, try to make patterns in the grass. Be extravagant about it. Admire your handiwork. Each time that you mow the lawn, try to outdo your prior efforts.The example of mowing a lawn was using gamification to simply make the time pass more quickly. Plus, it got you off your duff to go ahead and do a dreary task. That’s what gamification can achieve.
One means to learn the various prompt engineering techniques would be to read about them. I dare say that this is only the start of the learning process. It would be vital to go ahead and try out the prompting approaches. Use them for a while and get used to them. You don’t even have to be accomplishing something in particular, just the use of the prompting techniques will give you a better sense of what works and what doesn’t work.
You can read about how to compose text-to-image prompts. You can try using generative AI to hone that skill. And, most importantly, you can use gamification to boost your learning of the prized skill. Within Google Arts & Culture, you can search for a component labeled “Say What You See”. This will take you to the component and you can get underway with it. I did so and will provide some excerpts based on my use of the component .“I’ve generated images with Google AI, and you have to try to generate a close match. I’ll be on hand with prompt tips along the way.”
My blood began racing and I got sweaty palms. I have to get a passing grade. My competitive juices were flowing. The gamification had me hooked. I continued to proceed further into Level 1, then went to Level 2, and made my way through the gamification. My takeaway is that gamification works for some people and apparently doesn’t work for others. Be the judge of what works best for you. I have a sneaking suspicion that those claiming to not like gamification might secretly like it in particular situations, but anyway, that’s not a morass that I want to delve into here.
“Beyond how the system has been designed, individual differences, the context of use, and aspects of the task can play an important role in the formation of the resultant experience.” “Creates a game-like learning environment, provides the learner with opportunities such as starting, stopping, starting again, and making mistakes, and creates the perception that mistakes can be corrected.”
“From their interrelations, we derived basic principles that help explain how gamification works: Gamification can illustrate goals and their relevance, nudge users through guided paths, give users immediate feedback, reinforce good performance, and simplify content to manageable tasks.” There is also a timing factor to be considered. A prompt that worked today might not work the same way tomorrow. Most of the generative AI apps are continually being updated. The updates might alter internal mechanisms that could change how the generative AI reacts to your prompting.I opted to start by asking ChatGPT whether gamification could be used to increase prompting skills. We will likely find out which way ChatGPT goes on this matter.
Just for fun, I will write a flimsy prompt that at least touches on what was asked. The prompt is without a doubt wimpy.“Clarity: Your prompt is clear and straightforward. It directly asks for information about the importance of daily exercise.” “Reward: Congratulations! You've successfully completed your first Apprentice Challenge. You've earned: 100 XP Beginner's Badge.”
In contrast to my flimsy prompt in the first task, I will endeavor to up my game and do a more thorough prompt in this second task.: “Two friends who haven't seen each other for several years are on the phone and trying to plan a weekend trip. They are both very outdoors-oriented. One of them twisted an ankle a month ago and wants to make sure they don't overexert the ankle. Create a conversation between the two friends as they plan the trip.
