Collection of prompts for OpenAI's GPT-3

We have seen many impressive demos of OpenAI, but you never see the input prompt. Much of the work is trying to figure out the right prompt.

Some people say this could become a new programming paradigm. So let's see what the syntax is like.

Feel free to create a PR to add a new example.

Writing a pop song

Prompt

Below is a pop song by Taylor Swift about the boy Wizard Harry Potter.

“Harry Potter”
By Taylor Swift

Result

Harry’s got glasses
He’s got those bright green eyes
Girls are always screaming

‘Cause he’s got that Potter hair

Even when he’s super stressed
He’s still got those supersonic cheekbones
I’m not surprised they made a movie

‘Cause I’d watch him anytime
Oh, yeah, Harry, baby, you’re my favorite character

I’d walk a thousand miles

To get to see you and

Harry, Harry, you’re so fine

My girly parts all tingle

When you smile that smirk

I’d love to be your girl
