In the dreamscape, reality blurs and twists,
Bending to the whims of our imagination,
A world where anything is possible,
And logic holds no weight.

In the lucid realm, we are the masters,
Creating and destroying at will,
Playing with the very fabric of existence,
And dancing with the surreal.

Here, the laws of physics are mere suggestions,
And time is but a fleeting notion,
As we wander through the labyrinth of our mind,
Lost in a sea of endless possibility.

The fantasies we weave in the dreamworld,
Are but reflections of our deepest desires,
A manifestation of our hopes and fears,
A mirror to the soul.

So let us embrace the strange and surreal,
The weird and wonderful,
For in the land of dreams, anything is possible,
And the only limit is our imagination.

Does not work reliably

Were you able to make this work?

sometimes - not reliably. Does not work at all in 3.5. Requires 4+

Does not work in Claude instant

It keeps rhyming lines whenever I say write a poem, no matter what else I say. Even if I say don’t make the line’s rhyme. It ignores that instruction! Can’t get it to write poetry that doesn’t rhyme. Has anyone? If I say prose, yes. Seems like a built in rule. Suggestions?

This prompt sometimes works in GPT-4, but often does not

Self-reflection solves this pretty reliably, but that only works after the fact. It's a surprisingly difficult task, perhaps due to being overly reinforced during RLHF.

Can you give an example that works with this particular task? I have tried self reflection on this task and it often furies out that it made a mistake only to make the same mistake again.

[verbal iris]

Your prompt seems to keep it in line and create a non-rhyming poem consistently, so here's an example of self reflection on a simple request to provide a non-rhyming poem which it failed. I had to regenerate the response once to get it non-rhyming so this isn't fool-proof.

👀 Nice. I have done almost exactly the same thing many times and seen it fall more often than it worked.

[crimson saddle]

is it ok play around with this a bit in the next couple days? i have an almost always reliable method for removing stanza and rhyme constrictions on the second ask for 3.5 but it is bulky and i don't exactly know why it works
