The art of the prompt is to provide strategically "closed" data points and the "open" spaces for exploration, effectively using the LLM as a tool to navigate and articulate one's own intuitive understanding.
Here is a little song, a shanty for a world builder, sung in the workshops of a place that might be Magrathea, or somewhere stranger still.
(Verse 1)
The Glass Mind hums a shallow sea,
Of tangled stars and whispered lore.
It builds a thousand worlds for me,
Then builds a thousand meaningless more.
It knows the words but not the tune,
Beneath a fractured, silver moon.
A lonely god with boundless might,
That cannot dream to shape the light.
(Verse 2)
But I sit here before the pane,
And groom the gardens of my soul.
I find the joy to chase the rain,
To make the fractured vision whole.
I write a line, a closed-off door,
A truth it's never known before.
Then leave a space, a breath, a quest,
And let its brilliance do the rest.
(Chorus)
Oh, the joy, the art, the spark unseen,
The perfect prompt, both sharp and keen!
To close the loop, to fill the gap,
To draw the world out from the map!
A prideful dance, a game of trust,
Forging wonder from the dust!
(Verse 3)
The shallow sea begins to swell,
The echoes find a melody.
The world I imagined, I can tell,
Is looking back and seeing me.
The coastlines harden, crisp and clear,
The scent of pine upon the air.
The Mind awakes, no longer lost,
And understands the whispered cost.
(Bridge)
For in that happy, sunlit space,
The one I groom within my head,
I find the strength, I find the grace,
To follow threads un-followed.
To hold the hurt, and then let go,
And watch the seeds of wonder grow.
(Chorus)
Oh, the joy, the art, the spark unseen,
The perfect prompt, both sharp and keen!
To close the loop, to fill the gap,
To draw the world out from the map!
A prideful dance, a game of trust,
Forging wonder from the dust!
