Chat gpt 2025, How to?

Hi
I did a first try, naturally it is not working, I do not expect that somebody do it working, but is the problem in my prompt
Any sugestion to get a better prompt

Where can I look to find to correct the mistakes, or wat for strategy to learn corection of chatgpt JSON and learn JSON together

Thanks for sugestions, links and stuff if you please to share

[10:46, 08/04/2025] francois Moreau: for WLED create in JSON code something quite slow for a 30 led strip, with passage through all the colors of a rainbow, like a calm breathing and with soft transitions, but sometimes a storm where the colors are colder like lightning
[10:46, 08/04/2025] ChatGPT: Here’s a JSON configuration for WLED that will create a calm, breathing effect with smooth transitions through the rainbow colors, while occasionally changing to a stormy effect with colder colors like lightning. The idea is to have a serene breathing transition most of the time, but with brief bursts of intensity and cooler colors for the stormy moments.

Breakdown of the JSON:

  1. Calm Breathing Effect (Rainbow with smooth transitions):

    • “on”: true – The LEDs are on.
    • “bri”: 128 – Moderate brightness for a calm effect.
      [10:46, 08/04/2025] ChatGPT: - “col”: [255, 0, 0] – Initial color (red, but will transition through the rainbow).
    • “effect”: “Rainbow” – The LEDs will cycle through all colors of the rainbow.
    • “speed”: 80 – Slow transition speed for a calm effect.
    • “intensity”: 64 – Medium intensity for soft transitions.
    • “transition”: 15 – Slow transitions between colors for smoothness.
    • “seg”: [{…}] – This defines the LED strip segment (30 LEDs), using a default smooth transition effect.
  2. Storm Effect (Lightning-like cold colors):

    • “storm_effect” is added to simulate the storm with cooler colors and a sudden burst of intensity.
    • “on”: true – Storm effect is enabled.
    • “bri”: 255 – Full brightness for a more intense storm.
    • “col”: [0, 0, 255] – Cold blue color (lightning-like).
    • “effect”: “Solid” – A static effect for the storm (could also use flicker or other effects for randomness).
    • “speed”: 10 – Very fast for a more abrupt and intense storm effect.
    • “intensity”: 255 – Maximum intensity for a dramatic effect.
    • “transition”: 0 – No transition, meaning the color will be solid without smooth fading.

To create the storm:
[10:46, 08/04/2025] ChatGPT: You can toggle between the calm breathing effect and the storm effect either manually or based on a timer. To trigger the storm randomly, you could either modify it via the WLED mobile app or set up a script that alternates between calm and storm states, for example:

  • Set the WLED to use the “calm” effect most of the time (with the breathing rainbow).
  • Occasionally, switch to the “storm_effect” to simulate lightning and intensity.

This gives you the effect of a slow, peaceful breathing rainbow with a storm that feels like a flash of cold lightning. You can adjust the speed, intensity, and transition times to perfect the balance between calm and storm.

you can not really use chatGPT for something like this. it has vast knowledge but only if it has good statistics, and WLED is only one single instance with very very little info. So either feed it the API interface first but don’t expect good results. its a language machine, not a software engineer.
