🏴☠️ #4. Pirate The Prompts
The Who, What, Why of Ai
“If there was ever a time to pirate…”
We’re still in the early phases of Human + Ai interactions. The Ai doesn’t have its own ambitions or goals yet and to get an output, the current programs require what we’re calling a prompt. The smart money is on those not trying to invent the wheel - and are persistently pirating professional people’s prompts. 🤯
The trick with the Ai tools - is to add layers of detail and context to your prompting. Set the scene. Tell the tool who it’s supposed to be. Use industry jargon that describes specific attributes you want the output to have. The more you learn about prompting, the better your results will be. At first, there’s a learning curve, but it’ll pay off for you. Keep at it.

Why
“Recursion is a term in programming that means repeatedly calling the same function with the output of the previous function call as the input to the next. You stop when you meet your defined limits. Ai prompting is like that. Keep asking and re-inserting ideas from the output given. It improves your results.” - Brian
The right prompt will give you the AI image of your dreams. Just imagine, you can create stunning feminine images with just words and not actual objects or people. With a prompt, we can make a ship sailing in the snow. How amazing is that? - Zeng
