What Hacker News says

I used them as a “virtual travel agent” similar to the prompt on https://github.com/f/awesome-chatgpt-prompts#act-as-a-travel... It’s nice to be able to respond, “I’ve done 1 already, 2 is too far a drive, and 3 is not my vibe, give me 3 more options” and get a good result. I even asked it “what would the iCal format for doing this activity next Tuesday at 11am look like” and it generated one reasonably close (though in UTC time zone).
In Ask HN: What happened to Magic, the text-message concierge?
TL;DR: just pretend some code repo exists, interact with it, and GPT will happily fill in the blanks. Example: # Start with the "act as a terminal" preface (https://github.com/f/awesome-chatgpt-prompts#act-as-a-linux-terminal) git clone https://github.com/shesek/veterinarian-app cd veterinarian-app node src/webserver.js --port 5051 curl -X POST localhost:5051/api/customers/create -d name='Bob Marlin' -d phone=050-1112223 -d email=bobml@gmail.com curl localhost:5051/api/customers?fields=id,uri,name,phone,email,created_at,updated_at,num_animals,next_visit # src/webserver.js will now exists with an implementation of the API endpoints. ./util/db-dump-json.sh --include customers,animals --out-file dump.json # db-dump-json.sh will now exists, including argument parsing/validation and usage help text.

The twitter thread lists some more examples. It's pretty mind blowing to me that this is possible!
In GPT3 'make things up as you go'-driven development
I feel we should at some point create a popular "wiki" destination (a la Wikipedia) where everyone can document how to better engage with these Backboxes. Meanwhile, lists are popping out every week. It's good first step : https://chatgpt.getlaunchlist.com/ https://prompts.chat/ https://showgpt.co/ https://github.com/f/awesome-chatgpt-prompts https://github.com/saharmor/awesome-chatgpt You can also search for popular tweets with advanced searches like "chatGPT min_faves:1000 -filter:replies" https://twitter.com/search?q=chatGPT%20min_faves%3A1000%20-f...
