Turn nouns into verbs: the 'Range' trick to unlock cross-domain AI output
petesena · x · 2026-10-26
Part of petesena's thread on Felix Rieseberg's "4 types of ambition" prompting guide, this post covers Range: turn the noun into a verb to widen the model's view — a quarterly review becomes "getting busy people to believe a cause-and-effect story and decide in 30 minutes," a brand refresh becomes "getting a stranger to trust you in 3 seconds." Then ask what a behavioral psychologist or stand-up comic would do with that, pulling in fields the task doesn't seem to need.
