Copilot has a new feature that I love.

It's called Notebook and it's completely free.

This allows you to test your prompts for GPT-4.

Here's exactly what it's used for and how to use it: Image
1. Access Notebook

- Go to copilot .microsoft .com

- Select the mode you want (I recommend "Creative")

- In the top menu, click on "Notebook".

Important notes:

1. The mode you select seems to influence the mode used by Notebook. Select Creative or Precise for GPT-4.

2. You have a limit of 18,000 characters, unlike chat, which has a limit of 4,000.
2. Write your prompt

- Test your 1st prompt on the left.

- Send it to see the result with GPT-4 on the right.

Notebook makes it easy to test your prompts without having to create a new conversation each time!
3. Fine-tune your prompt

- Make changes to your prompt

- And send the new version for comparison

This is a huge time-saver, rather than starting from scratch every time in a chat.
Bonus: export

As with Copilot's chat function, you can export the result.

Click on the arrow to download in Word, PDF or Text format.
Having an interface to test and fine-tune your prompts is great:

You don't have to waste time creating a new conversation when you want to create the perfect prompt!

Gemini can turn any book into an interactive mindmaps

You can do it for books of hundreds of pages thanks to the massive context window and with a single prompt.

Perfect for those who memorize better visually (demo and prompt below): Image

1. Upload your book

Open Gemini and upload your book in PDF format.

You can also use Google AI Studio by selecting the 1.5 Pro model.
2. Enter the prompt

Copy/paste the prompt from my own conversation:


Gemini will generate code that will allow you to view your mindmap. g.co/gemini/share/6…

Reasoning models are becoming the norm

So a friendly reminder that OpenAI has released a guide to writing prompts for them.

Few important points and example: Image
The most important thing is to use delimiters, for example XML tags that look like this:

<context>
Your text...
</context>

You should also nest tags, for example: <outer><inner></inner></outer>

A concrete example below:
Prompt example:


I'm building a simple Python calculator application. It's a command-line interface (CLI) application for now, focusing on basic arithmetic operations. I'm using standard Python libraries and haven't implemented any complex error handling or UI yet.

When I perform a simple addition, like '2 + 2', the calculator sometimes returns '5' instead of '4'. This doesn't happen consistently, but it's reproducible after a few calculations. It seems to be more frequent after performing a division operation.



Identify the cause of this incorrect addition result and ensure that basic arithmetic operations, specifically addition, always return the correct value. I need to find the bug in my logic that's causing this intermittent incorrect calculation, possibly after a division.

Google has just launched an AI feature capable of planning, reasoning and searching the web.

All this is done in a single prompt using Deep Research.

This is literally the first reasoning model that has access to the internet. Game-changer.

How to use it below 🧵
1. Select model

Open Gemini Advanced and select “Deep Research” from the list at the top.

Then type your prompt. Example:

“Research all the possibilities for running a small AI model (LLM/SLM) locally on a Chromebook, without an internet connection.”
2. Edit the plan

You can adapt the plan before launching the research.

Just ask Gemini to delete, add, or modify steps. E.g:

“Add a step after the 3rd one: “Find out if it is possible to install an Android app on a Chromebook and run AI models locally within that environment”.

Stop using Make or Zapier

You can use Replit to create and deploy any Python script instead.

- It's faster
- Much more flexible
- Lower cost
- You're in control

Just describe what you want the Agent to do (e.g. scrap a website).

Run and deploy in one click with Replit 🧵
1. Write your prompt

Open Replit Agent and write your prompt.

E.g. if you want to scrap a website:

“Write a Python script to scrap the [Website Name] documentation, starting with this URL: [Your URL]” Image
2. Paste the URL

Paste your base URL (to be scraped in my case).

Select “Copy page content” so that the agent can view the page. Image

I just built my 5th app using Replit AI and Agent.

Not a single line of code written by myself as I don't know how to code.

You have to follow the right methods and you can even create a full SaaS.

Here's how to create anything without coding 🧵 Image
1. Define your Minimum Viable Product (MVP)

- What core features do you want your app to have?
- To solve what problem?
- With which UI?

Keep it simple for the initial prototype.
2. Replit Agent is your coding assistant

Use it to build the foundation of your app.

Give it instructions in plain English, and it will generate the code.

But take it one step at a time:

It's IMPOSSIBLE to create a complete app with just 1 prompt.
