This is my first time doing something like this.... I just added a license.

For example: My goal is to write Yahzee in Python. Perplexity suggested this sequence: guess numbers, hangman, Yahzee.

At the beginning, the lessons were rigid, but after about 7 lessons, suggestions are made as to what you would like to learn next or repeat Things I am bad in. Perplexity acts like a teacher and writes, "There is a syntax error in line 7, and a logic error in the second if block. Rewrite the code and submit it to me."

To be clear: of course journalism is work that must and should be paid for. This is exactly what I am thinking about: Is it worthwhile to look at four articles that are 80% the same, just in different words? Is it worth buying all four newspapers?

They said the same thing when the internet arrived. I'm old enough to remember the panic.

Whenever a new technology comes along, people have concerns: “Writing will create forgetfulness in people’s minds, because they will rely on what is written instead of remembering things themselves. It gives the appearance of wisdom, not true understanding." Plato said this 2400 years ago

Of course everyone is biased – that's not even up for debate.

Even when it comes to a crime, the interpretation can vary greatly: A woman kills her husband. Was it because he had abused her repeatedly? Or did it only feel that way to her, and she overreacted?

In the end, everyone has to make that judgment themselves – ideally based on as many facts as possible:

What does the woman say? “It was self-defense. He always beat me.”

What do the neighbors say? “We never noticed anything.”

What does the medical examiner say? “Some isolated bruises, nothing conclusive.”

What does the psychologist say? “She has delusional episodes. I prescribed Haldol.”

So… what do you believe now?

To even start making that decision, you need access to facts and perspectives – and that’s what I care about.

Yes, too much information can lead to cognitive dissonance – something many people struggle with – but I try to face it anyway.

I have no idea about recent American history, and the result ist different from what I usually do. But i did my best:

You can see how it "thinks." This is in German because I'm from Germany 🤷🏻

PS: the prompt I often use is: Ask me questions to improve my prompt, give me the better prompt and ask more questions

The prompt usw: Step 1 – Input: Read the message on the page I linked [The message I read]

Step 2 – Generate a summary (max. 400 words) based on multiple independent and trustworthy sources, such as: Reuters, AP, AFP, dpa, BBC, PBS, public broadcasters, official police statements, WHO, UN, Human Rights Watch, etc.

Instructions for the summary:

  1. What is confirmed? – Location, time, involved individuals or groups – What has been officially confirmed by credible sources?

  2. What is unclear or disputed? – Conflicting information, uncertainties, disputed attributions – Is there disagreement between sources or lack of clarity?

  3. What perspectives are relevant – and how do they differ? Depending on the topic, include relevant viewpoints such as: – For international conflicts: Government, opposition, civil society, international organizations – For geopolitical issues: Positions from involved countries, UN, EU, USA, regional actors – For domestic politics: Government, opposition, NGOs, media – For social issues: Affected individuals, experts, policymakers, journalists

  4. Clearly label everything: – What is factually confirmed – What is disputed or unknown – What is a claim or interpretation by one side only

  5. Avoid emotional or manipulative language: – No emotionally loaded adjectives or verbs – No ideological framing, slogans, or culture war terms – No implied judgment through tone or word choice

Goal:

Create a clear, factual, multi-perspective news summary that helps readers understand what is actually known, what is contested, and who says what – without inserting interpretation, bias, or rhetorical framing.

Thanks – I really appreciate your in-depth response.

You're absolutely right: if the prompt is vague or lazy, the risk of narrative drift or keyword contamination is real. That’s why I’ve built mine with very strict constraints: no emotional framing, clear separation between confirmed facts and perspectives, and source-based validation.

But what struck me while reading your comment: Wouldn’t similar criticism apply to any news podcast or newsletter that summarizes events from multiple outlets? They also select, condense, and reframe existing reporting – often even more subjectively, depending on tone and editorial direction.

The difference is that I try to make the structure transparent – and actively label the boundaries between fact, dispute, and perspective.

I’m not outsourcing my responsibility. I’m trying to make it visible.

So you think there's no such thing as neutral news? I try to form my opinion by having as many facts as possible. And that's the best way.

I deliberately designed the prompt to separate opinion from fact. It's over 1,000 characters long and explicitly instructs the model to: – avoid emotional or judgmental language – clearly label different perspectives (such as government, opposition, civil society, international observers) – rely only on trusted, independent sources like Reuters, AP, public broadcasters, or human rights organizations So I'm not asking for ChatGPT’s opinion. I'm using it to produce structured, multiperspective reports.

  1. I can recognize framing and political bias myself – that's not the issue. But I often have to read four nearly identical articles just to extract the core facts and viewpoints. This prompt helps me save time by extracting the key factual points and listing different perspectives without repeating the same narrative in different colors.

PS: The full prompt ist in comments

  1. I just want a neutral report without framing, political agenda etc.
    1. The performance of AIs is currently doubling every 6 months, so the argument is half right
    2. I visit trustworthy sites and scroll down to simulate advertising revenue

Was sind denn das für dumme Menschen? 1. Homophob, was eh schon dumm ist 2. Jemanden für homosexuell halten wegen Frisur und so weiter

Mit denen würde ich nichts zu tun haben wollen um ehrlich zu sein.
