Key Points on How to Prompt

  • Be Clear and Specific
    Example: Instead of saying, "Tell me about cats," say, "List five interesting facts about domestic cats."

    Example: "Summarize the following article on climate change: [insert article text]."
  • Use Simple Language
    Example: "Explain the concept of gravity in simple terms for a 10-year-old."

    Example: "Write a poem about winter in 50 words or less."
  • Ask Direct Questions
    Example: "What are the benefits of regular exercise?"
  • Iterate and Refine
    Example: If the first response isn’t quite right, adjust your prompt and try again. For instance, "Summarize the following article on climate change, focusing on its impacts on polar bears."
