3 fun AI prompts to try this weekend on ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini ...
Getting the most out of artificial intelligence tools comes down to wording your prompt. Yes, you can customize settings or tweak the options buttons, but at its core, it's about transforming what you write into something entirely new. This principle applies whether you're turning text into an orchestral masterpiece in Google’s MusicFX or designing a poster for a yard sale using Ideogram.
Text Prompt
I grew up in an era when technology magazines shared cheat codes, attached floppy disks to covers, and listed download links in lengthy URLs. To usher in a new era, I've put together a series of engaging prompts to experiment with on your preferred AI platforms. These prompts span across image, video, and text formats.
Let's kick off with a text prompt. Regardless of whether you've used Google Gemini, OpenAI ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, GroqChat, or Anthropic’s Claude, here's a prompt to spark your creativity:
"Write a captivating story about [name], a [age]-year-old, who wakes up to discover they can communicate with [object or thing], embarking on a day filled with fun, challenges, and newfound friendships."
The opening line of a sample story (Ryan, age 42, mushrooms): “Ryan, a 42-year-old with a curious mind and a gentle heart, woke up one peculiar morning to a soft, murmuring sound that seemed to emanate from his garden.”
You can try this prompt on Claude 2, ChatGPT, Gemini, GroqChat, Copilot, Pi, and more.
Image Prompt
Every good story deserves an image, even if it's just for the book jacket. Here's a prompt for you to create an image based on our story:
"Create an image of [name], [age] years old, discovering the magical ability to communicate with [object or thing], showcasing a whimsical and adventurous scene filled with fun, challenges, and the beginnings of a unique friendship."
I tried this prompt in MidJourney, DALL-E 3, and Adobe Firefly, and each rendition depicted a whimsical, magical world centered around mushrooms. Remember to personalize by swapping out the name, age, and object details.
You can try this prompt on ChatGPT (subscription required), Gemini, Copilot, MidJourney, Ideogram, FreePik, Leonardo, NightCafe, Adobe Firefly, and more.
Music Prompt
What better way to conclude a fun story than with music? Suno AI allows you to generate up to a minute of music based on a simple text prompt. Let's craft a musical prompt for you:
"Compose a song about [name], a [age]-year-old, who awakens with the magical ability to converse with [object or thing], weaving tales of adventure, challenges, and newfound friendships. Make it [genre]."
Remember to customize the details. If you specify a genre, keep in mind that character limits may require you to omit some information. I experimented without specifying a genre and received songs in different styles. From acoustic folk storytelling to whimsical comedy folk, each rendition brings a unique vibe to the story.
You can try this prompt on Copilot, Suno, Google MusicFX, Cassette AI, AudioGen, Stable Audio, Soundful, and more.
