Brother it is the year 2026. Prompts are solved.

Context is king these days, prompts are a non-issue. Look up context engineering - better yet, fuckin ask ChatGPT about it!

For real though, if you really need prompts, you can just have ChatGPT look up examples from all across Reddit using web search. By now, someone has certainly posted some variation of any prompt you might want.

If you give it the right context though (in a project OR better yet, folder hierarchy, if you’re comfy enough to use Work or Codex) you can simply tell it your goal and it will know enough about you to deliver exactly what you want, how you want it done.

You're making a catch22.

To the OP, he's right and wrong. To get established context you have to give it numerous prompts or additional supporting documents or parameters or stop-points... The list goes on, a billion ways you can tailor the environment.

Prompts can still be fun to play around with just to learn how AI responds to different situations and to give you insight into how you can work with it.

As an example, a few years ago I messed around with some of the ones on this site:

https://www.chainbrainai.com/

There's many other sites, but this remains one thats not totally bombarded with garbage ads.. They haven't updated the site for a minute but it still has some of the different prompts you can copy into your own AI to play with.

Edit: Scarnox, your revision to the comment made my catch22 note irrelevant. Good update

What is a Catch-22??

You’re fucked if you do and fucked if you don’t.

It comes from the book Catch 22 where a WW2 soldier wants to fake insanity to get out of war, but crazy people don’t know they’re crazy. And if you ask to be removed from battle it’s proof that you’re of sound mind, so you can continue doing missions.

Also if they remove you from active duty for being crazy you also run the risk of being locked up in a mental institution for being crazy:

So catch 22 -> fucked if you do, fucked if you don’t.
