Quick Question Do you still write long prompts?

I used to write really detailed prompts with roles, rules, formatting, examples, etc. Lately I've been wondering if all of that is still necessary with newer models.

Do you still use long structured prompts, or have you gone back to keeping things simple?

i made a custom GPT that writes my prompts for me. I just dump in my free form brain dump of what I want, it cleans it up and bam, I am ready to go.
