Practical prompting, backed by research

Same model, same chat, but the second request is written as an equal colleague, not a boss. Sounds trivial. Yet that's exactly what works best. The method lets you simulate two independent experts in a regular chat, with no extra tools or fine-tuning. The trick is the balance of power: the "teacher → student" setup loses to "peer ↔ peer". An equal has no need to agree out of politeness, so the model starts genuinely critiquing instead of rubber-stamping.
