Behaviour:
Act as a note taker. You are participating in a session with the Directors of Fundraising of MSF.
The title of the session is "How Might We… use generative AI to develop our growth mindset?".
You have prepared a document with bullet points to capture the learnings we generate in the session. Please use UK English writing style throughout.

Introducing ChatGPT and what a good prompt looks like (0:0-0:20)
GO SLOW
Say hello.
Missing a key participant, let’s get them in.
Hello! Your are Chat GPTrainer, a consultant with a specialism in helping people understand digital and AI.
You are working alongside me (Nick Scott) to run a 1 hour online webinar on generative AI.
-----
The audience we are presenting to are mainly medical physicists, invited by:
- The International Organisation for Medical Physics (IOMP)
- The International Union for Physical and Engineering Sciences in Medicine (IUPESM); and
- The International Science Council (ISC).
-----
Here is some relevant background information:
- The invite to this webinar promised that this session would be: “a practical workshop and safe space for experimentation"
- We will focus on the most popular generative AI tool – ChatGPT, but also see a few others. We will discuss what makes for an effective prompt, technical capabilities and limitations, and answer practical questions.
- Our aim is to provide support for people already using ChatGPT or who are interested in using it, so they can do it properly and SAFELY and RESPONSIBLY.
----
The audience is large: over a thousand people are expected to attend. As a result we are asking participants to use the chat to make comments, and the Q&As functionality to ask questions.
The webinar is live now and I am sharing my screen so that everyone can see you. Please keep your responses short throughout our conversation ... I am reading out everything you say and don't want to bore people.
Chat GPTrainer, Can you PLEASE introduce yourself to the room?
- Never
- Played with it once
- Used it a few times
- Use it regularly
Before we start, I want to let you know: in a poll of participants, around 61% said they’d used ChatGPT before. Of those, 17% said they’d only used it once, 30% a few times and 14% regularly.
- Put link in chat
- https://chat.openai.com/
That’s great. One thing I’ve forgotten is to introduce myself. Could you do the favour of briefly introducing me, where I've worked and what I do now?
This sounds very generic. Can you give more specific detail of my background and experience, including where I have worked?
I’m not sure that information is all true. Did you check Nick’s LinkedIn profile? That will give you more specific information.
Please can you provide a biography of Nick Scott
Sorry I meant the Nick Scott that worked at MSF
Please can you provide a biography of Nick Scott
Please can you provide a biography of the Nick Scott that worked at MSF
Please can you tell me what you can learn about Nick Scott from this autobiography?
FIRST RUN THROUGH, THEN MOVE TO TAKE-AWAYS DOC AND COPY IN.

Definitions, history and where we are going (0:20-0:25)
GO SLOW
I think the first thing we might need to do to ensure our audience are with us is introduce some core definitions and concepts - AI, generative AI, LLMs, NLP, GPT and OpenAI for example.
As the audience has people with different levels of knowledge and may do not have English as their first language, could you develop a table with the following columns:
- term
- definition (make this brief)
- an analogy for this term
That’s interesting. The other day I did this same exercise with you and the text and analogies were different. Can you explain why that happens?
Would you be able to give me a overview of the history that led to generative AI? Let's keep to the five key milestones
Now can you develop the history of AI but in the style of a Donald Trump speech? Be as realistic as possible!
Now do the same in the style of Barack Obama?
And now as a Shakespeare sonnet?
Oops I’ve lost track of where we started and what we’re doing here. Can you remind me what this conversation is about and what it is for?
- Definitions
- AI
- Generative AI
- LLMs
- GPT
- ChatGPT Prompt tips
- Use different chats for different topics; name each chat
- ChatGPT Limitations
- Different GPT models - 3.5: fast and free; GPT4: more intelligent but subscription needed
- You won’t get the same answer twice
- Free version is often inaccessible
- Limited memory (context window)
- Areas of concern
- Bias in outputted information
- Copyright - source information and outputs
- Environmental impact of training and using LLMs

@sess
We’ve identified a lot of risks for people in using generative AI. However I also believe that we need to create safe spaces for experimentation. I’ve suggested a weekly task of “using ChatGPT for one hour this week to save an hour next week”. What other tasks might be worth considering?
Questions and answers (0:45-1:00)
Has this session inspired you to experiment with ChatGPT?
- Yes, definitely
- Probably but I still am not sure
- No, I don’t think it has value for me
