Pro
Hey everyone,
I’ve been seeing a lot of hype around ChatGPT Pro and the advanced reasoning capabilities of the o1 and o3 models. I know they actually "think" and self-correct before generating an answer, which makes them insane for coding and complex logic.
Obviously, paying for Pro makes sense for power users, but for the rest of us on the Free tier I'm curious how close we can get using prompt engineering alone.
Has anyone found or built a "God prompt" or a robust Chain-of-Thought meta-prompt that forces the free model to simulate this deep reasoning? I know the classic "think step-by-step," but I'm looking for something more advanced that forces the model to brainstorm, evaluate multiple paths, and self-correct before outputting the final answer
