When getting GPT4 to do something, get it to ask you questions.
eg: try iterating around this
“assume I am an expert software architect and you need guidance for improving the architecture described above. What questions would you ask me to improve the design document above? Focus on low level architectural concerns rather than high level as we are trying to develop an initial version.”
Using this for my project here - GitHub - qrdlgit/newsfeed-llm: newsfeeds powered filtered by llms such as GPT4
Another way of looking at this: GPT4 has only limited reasoning, and trying to workaround that probably isn’t worth it, even via extensive COT / self refinement. Better is to just use its textual pattern/replacement and inject human reasoning via reverse prompting.
