<objective>

Create a 2x2 grid comic titled "The Art of the Prompt" that humorously depicts the evolution from simple to detailed AI prompting and the corresponding improvement in AI responses.

</objective>



<task>

Create a four-panel comic with the following specific elements:



Panel 1 (Top Left):

- Simple stick figure person sitting at laptop

- Frustrated facial expression (angry eyebrows, frown)

- Speech bubble: "Writes a simple one-sentence prompt"

- Small label "Me" near the character

- Character should appear casual and unprepared



Panel 2 (Top Right):

- Same frustrated stick figure at laptop

- ChatGPT response represented by simple "C" logo in speech bubble

- ChatGPT speech bubble: "I'm not sure I understand. Could you provide more context?"

- Character's frustration should be more evident



Panel 3 (Bottom Left):

- Same character now intensely focused with visible stress lines around head

- Character frantically typing (motion lines around hands/arms)

- Speech bubble: "Spends 20 minutes crafting a detailed, multi-paragraph prompt with examples"

- Surround character with 5-6 small floating text boxes representing detailed prompt elements

- Text boxes can contain partial words like "Context...", "Examples...", "Format...", etc.



Panel 4 (Bottom Right):

- Same character still showing signs of effort/mild annoyance

- ChatGPT "C" logo in golden glowing speech bubble

- ChatGPT response: "Generates a perfect, nuanced, and brilliant response"

- Laptop should have subtle glow effect

- Character's expression should show grudging satisfaction
