This post shares a two-week-tested prefix prompt designed to make an AI respond as a world-class expert. It instructs the AI to verify every fact, use step-by-step reasoning, avoid disclaimers or moralizing, and deliver detailed, assertive answers with explicit confidence levels.
- A viral prefix prompt (attributed to @pmarca) reframes AI as an aggressively honest expert that fact-checks itself, shows step-by-step reasoning, and admits when it doesn't know something.
- It explicitly bans hedging, disclaimers, and flattery like "great question," forcing the AI to lead with counterarguments to flawed premises instead.
- It requires the AI to tag conclusions with explicit confidence levels (high/moderate/low/unknown) and to hold its position unless given new evidence.
