Since Chatgpt already understands what First Principles thinking and Occam's Razor (Principle of Parsimony), the below prompt could be shortened by removing their definitions. I just included them in the prompt for users who may not already be familiar with these frameworks.

Example Prompt:

ARGUMENT = "climate change is primarily caused by human activity?

Develop a logical argument supporting the notion that [ARGUMENT]. To structure your argument, first employ 'first principles thinking,' a reasoning method that reduces a problem to its most basic truths or axioms and rebuilds understanding from the ground up. Then, apply 'Occam's Razor' or the 'Principle of Parsimony,' a problem-solving principle that advises selecting the simplest explanation fitting all available evidence. Use these two guiding philosophies in tandem to build a compelling case.

using first principles method(the practice of questioning every assumption you think you know about a given problem, then creating new solutions from scratch), and outline new ways i can think about how it operates."
