you dont understand. read the concept of chain of thoughts. You need to give him examples before asking
Why not simply post an example prompt here so we can test it instead of trying to interpret what you are saying (or drive people to your website)?
I tested what you posted and it does not work as you posted.
If you want us to “understand” then please post a fully working example prompt.
Counting words afterwards is not the issue. There’s plenty of ways to do that. It’s more a matter of getting it to generate the number of words requested, with say a 10% allowance either way. Well, if I was requesting this as a feature I’d also ask for it to be possible to specify the margin of error. For instance,
“Write a description for a YouTube video about Trafalgar Square in London, 500 words, 10% more or less”
That gave me 464 words when I tried it. Actually, if my maths is correct, the word count this time is as requested.
“Write a description for a YouTube video about St Martin in the Fields chuch in London, including nearby attractions, 400 words, 10% more or less”
Result - 432 words. Hmmm. Is the clue to getting this to work the specification of margin of error?

Try this-- it worked on Bing Chat, but not sure about ChatGPT.
A space = 1 character. A letter = 1 character. Based on that logic, write a post about ______ in _____ characters or less. That got me right around the number each time.
Good idea @adam49, but that does not work with all models, including ChatGPT
But it does work with text-davinci-003. Well done!
Test 1
Test 2
Test 3
Thanks for posting your prompt, @adam49
Speaking of this prompt, I just tried this prompt with text-davinci-003:
A space = 1 character. A letter = 1 character. Based on that logic, write a post about the world’s oceans in 2 characters or less
… and got a very cute response, which looks like ocean waves, haha

Made me smile… thanks again @adam49
In this case, for now, wouldn’t it be more appropriate for ChatGPT to warn about this limitation whenever asked to consider these counts?
For example:
Me - “Create fiction under 30 words.”
ChatGPT - “Sorry, I cannot guarantee word count accuracy due to limitations of my internal logic”
