🚨 Trending: The Prompt That Shouldn't Work (But Does)
You’ve probably been told to prompt like this:
Give it context
Give it structure
Use frameworks like PAS or AIDA
Include formatting commands
Add “You are an expert X” instructions
And yet…
This dumb little one-liner is going viral on Twitter and Discord:
“Act like someone who knows me better than I know myself. What’s holding me back right now?”
No formatting. No setup. No structure.
Just vibes.
And somehow? It slaps.
People are sharing screenshots of this thing diagnosing their bad habits, suggesting career pivots, writing better sales copy than they do… all from one "bad" prompt.
Why it's working:
It triggers the model’s emergent reasoning — a fancy way of saying it gets creative
It invites intuition, not instruction
It bypasses robotic outputs and feels more like a smart coach than a stiff consultant
✅ Sometimes, removing rules unlocks better answers.

💡 AI Life Hack Of The Day
🎯 Make ChatGPT Speak Like You
If you're tired of AI sounding… well, AI-ish — try this:
“Here are 5 writing samples I wrote. Learn my tone, sentence structure, and voice. From now on, write everything like I would. Be informal, punchy, slightly sarcastic, and occasionally curse if it fits. Confirm you understand.”
Paste your real writing.
You just created a tone-trained personal assistant.
Use it for emails, social posts, replies, sales pages — anything.
🔄 Bonus Tip
🧼 The 3-Word Prompt Cleanup Trick
If your prompt is a mess, and you don’t feel like editing…
Just add this to the end of any prompt:
“Rewrite my request to get a better result.”
ChatGPT will clean up your prompt for you, and run the upgraded version.
That’s prompt engineering... without the engineering. If you don’t like the initial rewrite then simply type:
“Try again 3 times.”
Then just choose your favorite.

Some of the most effective AI prompts in the world are “bad” by traditional standards.
They’re:
Messy
Vague
Non-linear
But so are humans.
So if your prompts feel too rigid or too "correct" — try getting a little weird. That’s where the magic lives.
