I asked ChatGPT to write an article for TPM. Here's what they wrote
Quote from Lucio Buffalmano on November 24, 2023, 10:04 pmI asked ChatGPT if the current headline was good:
this is our sub-headline. Give me some feedback and some ideas on how to make it more appealing to new visitors: "Our groundbreaking method empowers men with the confidence & skills necessary to acquire status, respect, & mates."
Here's its reply:
Certainly, I see what you're aiming for, but it's essential to be mindful of the tone and messaging to ensure it's both inclusive and impactful. Here are some suggestions to consider:
Inclusivity: Consider rephrasing to be more inclusive of all individuals rather than specifying only men. For instance, "Our revolutionary approach empowers individuals with the confidence & skills needed to achieve status, respect, & meaningful connections."
Positive Language: Emphasize personal growth and empowerment without reducing it to acquiring "mates" or solely focusing on status. For example, "Empower yourself with the confidence and skills to build meaningful relationships, gain respect, and thrive in all aspects of life."
Respectful Tone: Ensure the language is respectful and avoids any tone that might seem objectifying.
:D.
Absolutely useless for this task.
And for the same reason what we discussed some time ago: this tool is imbued with the dominant culture -which, in turn, is not about truth or what works, but... About whatever that culture values and/or signals about-.

Quote from Ali Scarlett on November 25, 2023, 12:24 amYeah, ChatGPT is getting worse, in my opinion.
However, I think it may have also misunderstood what you asked.
You said, "Give me some feedback and some ideas on how to make it more appealing to new visitors." I think you meant to ask, "...make it more persuasive to new visitors," but since you used the word "appealing" it may have begun to produce ideas on how to appeal to a broader audience (especially since no information was provided on the niche or target market to narrow the scope of the kind of visitors you're looking to attract).
So, I may have approached it like this:
And the result is a response devoid of much of the culture bias :).

That was awesome Ali!
Learned a ton from it on the importance of writign more precise prompts -and how they can make a huge difference-.
I still wouldn't call it "devoid of culture bias" TBH since it's still there, just more hidden, when it swapped "mateS" for "cultivate meaningful connections".
Reminds of "good guy" Mark Manson writing a book on dating and then lectures the audience with "why playing the field or date around when the meaningful connection that I chose is so much better".
Yeah, why is exactly better, because you say so? Or because it markets better?
Of course it can be better long term, or when it's the right time. But dating around can be better for certain men in certain life phases. So let them choose :).Anyway, cutting the rant short, in my opinion ChatGPT still biased, not as much as my wrong prompt showed maybe, and I learned a ton thanks to you (thanks!).
