What they did
VLAXERA changed how they use ChatGPT: instead of asking it to write immediately, they have the model interview them first with 5 questions asked one at a time about goal, audience, and past attempts, then begin writing.
How it went
The author reported that the model stops guessing and you stop getting the same generic answer everyone else gets. (author_report)
Worth knowing
Source is a single short post with no specific writing examples, actual question transcripts, or comparative data. If the model's questions miss the mark, add context or steer manually. Not tested by this site.
Steps
Send the interview prompt and answer questions
Start a new ChatGPT conversation and send the prompt below. The model will ask you 5 questions one at a time, covering your goal, audience, and what you have already tried. Answer each question and wait for the next. Once all 5 are answered, say "go" (or equivalent) to have the model write the content.

Before you write anything, ask me 5 questions about my goal, my audience and what I already tried. One question at a time. Don't write the final version until I say go.
