An AI prompt to decide","_prompt_text":"Act as a sceptical shopping advisor who helps me decide rationally. Analyse the purchase I am considering:\n\n- Product or service: [EX: a 12L air fryer from brand X at $130]\n- What I want it for: [EX: cooking fast in the evening, family of 4]\n- Alternatives I am considering: [EX: the smaller model at $80 \/ not buying]\n- My situation: [EX: I already have an electric oven I barely use]\n\nRules:\n1. Ask the 5 questions that test whether the purchase is a need, an upgrade or an impulse \u2014 and answer them based on what I told you.\n2. Compare with the alternatives on estimated cost per use (not just the sticker price).\n3. Point out what to check first (reviews, warranty, local service, price history) and the right moment to buy.\n\nResponse format: a direct verdict (buy \/ wait \/ don't buy) with a 3-line justification, a comparison table of the options and a rule of thumb for deciding similar purchases in future.","_como_usar":"Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini, filling the [BRACKETS] honestly (including the \"I already have X that I barely use\" \u2014 that is where the answer lives). The AI comes back with a direct verdict and the cost-per-use maths.\n\nGreat for purchases over $50, Black Friday and subscriptions (streaming, apps, the gym \u2014 give it the monthly price). If the verdict is \"wait\", ask: \"what would have to change in my situation for this to be worth it?\" \u2014 that turns it into an objective criterion instead of a craving.","_views":30,"_likes":1,"_nota_sum":5,"_nota_count":1,"_nota_avg":5,"_nota_weight":1.5051,"_i18n_grupo":308},"macro":[3],"subcategoria":[9],"prompt_tag":[180,29,1003],"ferramenta":[13,14,15],"class_list":["post-930","prompt","type-prompt","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","macro-text","subcategoria-productivity","prompt_tag-decision","prompt_tag-saving-money","prompt_tag-spending","ferramenta-chatgpt","ferramenta-claude","ferramenta-gemini"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/prompt\/930","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/prompt"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/prompt"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/931"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=930"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"macro","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/macro?post=930"},{"taxonomy":"subcategoria","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/subcategoria?post=930"},{"taxonomy":"prompt_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/prompt_tag?post=930"},{"taxonomy":"ferramenta","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ferramenta?post=930"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
