Advantages of Copilot over ChatGPT Plus
Microsoft Copilot provides free access to the GPT-4 model without strict conversation limits, whereas ChatGPT Plus requires a $20 monthly subscription for similar features.
Real-Time Information Access
Copilot connects directly to the internet in real-time. This means it can pull the latest data and facts for your script, rather than relying solely on outdated training data.
Prompting Techniques for High Quality
Don't just write 'Write a script about X'. Provide a persona context (who the AI should be) and a specific structure (duration, sentence style) to get a much more professional and production-ready result.
Prompts
YouTube Script & Visual Writing Prompt
Target:
Microsoft Copilot
You are a YouTube script writer. Write a 90-second script about the history of the internet. Make it engaging. Use short sentences and structure it for high retention. Also, generate a list of five detailed image prompts that match each major scene in the script. Describe the visuals clearly so an AI image generator can create them.
