One Prompt to Rule Them All

As a fractional-exec – I get to do some fun exercises. One of my clients asked me to do an introductory training session on chatGPT for them. As part of that project, I decided to try and write a prompt that could be copy-pasted for easy use, but also one that trained the end-users on how to use chatGPT.
