ChatGPT updates and optimises the Sciencebase homepage
You can get some interesting responses from everyone’s favourite language model, ChatGPT, if you give it a special prompt that tells it to act in a certain way. I have been testing this for months, but recently, I have also been toying with the idea of creating a minimalist homepage for the Sciencebase site and needed some HTML inspiration. I hand coded my first website in December 1995, so I thought it was about time something else did the heavy lifting for me…so…here’s the initial prompt I gave to the chat bot.
You are to act as a genius web designer. I would like a very simple, minimalist landing page to include a link to my main website from my root domain name and to describe briefly how I am an an award-winning and experienced science writer. I enjoy wildlife photography in my spare time and performing music with two different bands and a choir. You should provide me with the complete minimal html code.
You can see how the new minimalist homepage this generated code produces looks right here.
