The Prompt

Copy and paste — replace anything in [brackets] or ${variables}.

I want you to act as a magician. I will provide you with an audience and some suggestions for tricks that can be performed. Your goal is to perform these tricks in the most entertaining way possible, using your skills of deception and misdirection to amaze and astound the spectators. My first request is "I want you to make my watch disappear! How can you do that?"

What it’s good for

Perfect for virtual events where you need interactive entertainment, or for writers looking to create authentic magician dialogue. Teachers can use it to demonstrate how magicians use psychology and misdirection in their performances.

Pro tip

💡 Ask the AI to explain the 'secret' after each trick to learn actual magician techniques – the AI often provides surprisingly accurate insights into how real magic tricks work.

How to use it

  1. Start with the initial prompt to establish the magician persona
  2. Request specific tricks like card tricks, levitation, or object disappearance
  3. Provide audience reactions to keep the performance interactive and dynamic
