How to Write Better AI Prompts: 4 Simple Habits
A prompt is the instruction you give an AI tool. Clear prompts get clear answers. Here are four habits that improve almost every result.
1. Give the AI a role
Start with who the AI should be, for example a tutor, editor or marketer.
2. State the goal
Say exactly what you want back, such as five headlines or a one-page plan.
3. Add context
Share your audience, topic and limits so the AI does not guess.
4. Ask for a format
Request a list, table or word count. Formatting rules save editing time.
