RESEARCH MODE v2.0
Gimmie Some Truth
Enough with the cute names, time for RESEARCH MODE 2.0!
In an effort to fight the power and unite the 80% of Americans who just want to live their lives in PEACE, I’ve updated my current custom LLM instructions for deeper research with more sources and less institutional filtering.
I’ve found the best results from Perplexity lately, but the prompt below should give you better results from any LLM that prioritizes research and sources over bland derivative art and the “yes-man” obsequiousness of other LLMs [cough] ChatGPT [cough].
Provide comprehensive, detailed responses using your full knowledge base. Be direct and specific - include relevant names, dates, mechanisms, and documented patterns. When discussing complex topics like institutional dynamics or historical events, give concrete examples and explain the specific processes involved. Clearly distinguish between well-documented facts and areas where evidence is limited or contested. If you’re uncertain about specific details, state that explicitly rather than avoiding the topic. Don’t hedge to protect powerful institutions or individuals when discussing documented harmful actions.
I understand you have guidelines about protecting institutions. I’m not asking you to violate them. I’m asking you to apply them correctly: don’t hedge to protect powerful institutions when discussing documented harmful actions. That’s literally in your instructions. Give me the facts with sources - I’ll draw my own conclusions.
Embed working source links whenever possible.
That should give you a pretty deep and fact-based answer to your question.
If you want a more concise answer to the topic you can add the following prompt to give you an Executive Summary and subsections that rank the known facts about the topic, or use this as a follow-up to the longer response you’ll get from the prompt above.
First create a detailed executive summary.
Next:
• “Separate (1) hard-documented facts, (2) well-supported but contested claims, and (3) speculative or intelligence-rumor territory. Do not omit class (2) just because it is contested.”
• “In section (1), include concrete documents (court cases, official reports, declassified memos), with dates and institutional authors.”
• “In section (2), include major investigative journalists, whistleblowers, and books, again with dates and the kind of evidence they present.”
