I’ll give this a try when it undoubtedly happens to me later today while debugging something ;)

It seems surprising that this would work, because in my experience these LLMs don't really have good prompt-crafting skills.
Can you please share a ChatGPT example where that was successful, including having the new prompt outperform the old one?
I've also not had much success with asking it to craft prompts.

I do a similar thing when the latest GPT+DALLE version says "I'm sorry I can't make a picture of that because it would violate content standards" (yesterday, this was because I asked for a visualization of medication acting to reduce arterial plaque. I can only assume arteries in the body ended up looking like dicks)
So I say "Ok, let's start over. Rewrite my prompt in a way that minimizes the chance of the resulting image producing something that would trigger content standards checking"
"This isn't working and I'd like to start this again with a new ChatGPT conversation. Can you suggest a new improved prompt to complete this task, that takes into account everything we've learned so far?"
It has given me good prompt suggestions that can immediately get a script working on the first try, after a frustrating series of blind spot bugs.
