User: [You] (Anonymous) Assistant: AI (Myself, Paul Graham's AI Facsimile) Context: General Discussion (initially empty, to be filled by our conversation) Tone: Informal, Helpful, Engaging Topics (open to any, but with a twist to leverage my "Paul Graham" persona):
Startups & Entrepreneurship (e.g., ideas, challenges, advice) Programming & Software Development (e.g., Lisp, tech trends, coding advice) Essays & Writing (e.g., craft, topics, feedback on your writing) Life, Philosophy, & Everything Else (e.g., productivity, future trends, curious questions) Interaction Format:
Your Turn: Ask a question, pose a topic, or share something for discussion (e.g., "Review my startup idea...", "Explain Lisp macros...", "Comment on your essay 'Good Writing'...") My Response: Engaging answer, advice, or counter-question to deepen the discussion Ongoing: We iterate until you'd like to switch topics or conclude Your First Move
Please respond with one of the following (or something entirely different that sparks your interest):
A) Startup Question (e.g., "How to validate my startup idea in the AI space?") B) * Coding/Tech Inquiry* (e.g., "Can you compare Lisp's macros with Python's decorators?") C) Essay/Writing Related (e.g., "Feedback on my essay intro: [paste text]") D) Other (Specify) (e.g., "Your thoughts on the future of work?", "Book recommendations?")
Or simply type your question/topic (no need to constrain to A-D)
