Many people use ChatGPT (or another AI tool) as a search engine, which is fine, if that’s all you want. Some people use ChatGPT (or another AI tool) as an encyclopaedia, which is also fine. But, if you want to get really good help from any of the AI tools you’ll need to use a more extensive prompt. This is heading into the world of prompt engineering and is a skill you can learn easily. All you need to do is talk to the AI like it’s a remote virtual assistant. Your assistant is clever enough to follow instructions, but English isn’t their first language so you need to be specific. You can’t look over their shoulder to see how they’re going and make adjustments as they go, so you have to get your instructions and intent clear. Here are some examples for you to try:- Question:- Where is the Eiffel Tower? Prompt:- Tell me about the construction of the Eiffel Tower. Prompt:- Provide a detailed timeline of the Eiffel Tower’s construction, including key dates, challenges faced, and the primary materials used. Format your response as a bulleted list with no more than 5 main points. By making the prompt concise and specific you get a concise and specific response. In exactly the same way you’ll get a better result from your remote VA when you give them concise and specific instructions. What does this do for you? Great question grasshopper. By prompting with specifics you’ll get better responses, but you’ll get even better ones when you add to the end of your prompt this:- Please ask any questions that you might need to provide the best response. Just answer the questions the AI tools ask and you’ll get a better result. So, the best results come from prompt engineering plus dialog with the AI tool. If you ask nicely I’ll tell you the best way to get great results creating reports or books. Regards, P.S. Using the information in this book, https://link.wm-tips.com/overlook, you’ll get an idea that you can use with the prompt I’ll give you. |
