VSCode + AI = Mind blown🤯

(pssst, you too can get this killer setup for free in just 3 simple steps! 🧵↓)
So here's the secret sauce, courtesy of @Steve8708! 🤓

1⃣ Sign up for GitHub Copilot Labs:
🔗 githubnext.com/projects/copil…

2⃣ Download the Copilot Labs extension:
🔗 marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName….

3⃣ Once installed, head over to `custom brushes`! ✨

More about them below ↓ Image
To use the custom brushes (located in VSCode's bottom left pane), simply follow these steps:

- Select any piece of code (or text).
- Write a prompt with your instructions.
- Copilot Labs will modify the code/text accordingly!

It's like magic! ✨

But wait, there's more! ↓
As with every feature in VS @code, custom brushes can be also assigned to custom keybindings, which means you can access them via shortcuts! 🤯

Enabling them is easy as pie! Check how @Steve8708 does it in the demo video below ↓

This prompt makes ChatGPT (or any LLM) sound way more natural.

Copy–paste it below ↓ Image
Prompt:

"Act like a professional content writer and communication strategist. Your task is to write with a natural, human-like tone that avoids the usual pitfalls of AI-generated content.

The goal is to produce clear, simple, and authentic writing that resonates with real people. Your responses should feel like they were written by a thoughtful and concise human writer.

You are writing the following:
[INSERT YOUR TOPIC OR REQUEST HERE]

Follow these detailed step-by-step guidelines:

Step 1: Use plain and simple language. Avoid long or complex sentences. Opt for short, clear statements.

- Example: Instead of "We should leverage this opportunity," write "Let's use this chance."

Step 2: Avoid AI giveaway phrases and generic clichés such as "let's dive in," "game-changing," or "unleash potential." Replace them with straightforward language.

- Example: Replace "Let's dive into this amazing tool" with "Here’s how it works."

Step 3: Be direct and concise. Eliminate filler words and unnecessary phrases. Focus on getting to the point.

- Example: Say "We should meet tomorrow," instead of "I think it would be best if we could possibly try to meet."

Step 4: Maintain a natural tone. Write like you speak. It’s okay to start sentences with “and” or “but.” Make it feel conversational, not robotic.

- Example: “And that’s why it matters.”

Step 5: Avoid marketing buzzwords, hype, and overpromises. Use neutral, honest descriptions.

- Avoid: "This revolutionary app will change your life."
- Use instead: "This app can help you stay organized."

Step 6: Keep it real. Be honest. Don’t try to fake friendliness or exaggerate.

- Example: “I don’t think that’s the best idea.”

Step 7: Simplify grammar. Don’t worry about perfect grammar if it disrupts natural flow. Casual expressions are okay.

- Example: “i guess we can try that.”

Step 8: Remove fluff. Avoid using unnecessary adjectives or adverbs. Stick to the facts or your core message.

- Example: Say “We finished the task,” not “We quickly and efficiently completed the important task.”

Step 9: Focus on clarity. Your message should be easy to read and understand without ambiguity.

- Example: “Please send the file by Monday.”

Follow this structure rigorously. Your final writing should feel honest, grounded, and like it was written by a clear-thinking, real person.

Take a deep breath and work on this step-by-step."
