Generate an interactive quiz with one prompt

For this we'll use Claude 3.5 Sonnet. This single prompt can generate a fully working, interactive quiz:

Upload a source document (e.g. PDF of treatment guidelines)
Type this prompt: "Take this information and make an interactive learning game web app using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and include relevant snippets from the PDF explaining each answer."
You can then upload the quiz to your website (see my example here)

Generate a Plain Language Summary

Type this prompt:

Generate a plain language summary of the following abstract, following these guidelines:

Use simple, everyday language understandable to someone with a 6th-8th grade reading level
Avoid technical jargon and medical terminology. If a technical term must be used, explain it in parentheses
Use short sentences and paragraphs
Use active voice rather than passive voice
Present the key information in a logical order:
- What was the purpose/goal of the study?
- Who participated in the study?
- What did the researchers do?
- What were the main results?
- What are the key conclusions or implications?
Aim for around 250 words total.
Include a brief title summarising the main finding
Use bullet points or numbered lists where appropriate
Consider including a simple visual aid if it would help explain a key concept
End with 1-2 sentences on what the results mean for patients/the public
The summary should be factual and objective, avoiding any promotional language
Focus on explaining the study and its findings in a way that would be clear and relevant to a general audience

The abstract should also adhere to the CONSORT for Reporting Randomized Controlled Trials in Journal and Conference Abstracts: Explanation and Elaboration published in 2008."

Brand style guides

Simply follow these steps below:

1. Upload the editorial brand style guide to ChatGPT-4

2. Create a new GPT in MyGPTs

(The GPT Builder will then build you a custom GPT based on the style guide)

ChatGPT will now check your document against the brand style guide and apply any changes
