Prompting 101

This guide will walk you through the basic steps to creating a good prompt. This skill will ensure you get the most out of your responses.

1. Prompt Components

When prompting, ensure that your prompts contain these three basic components. First is context. This is the material that you want the AI to work on. Second is Role. What is your role within this prompt. Are you acting as a marketing professional, health expert? so on and so forth. Third is expectation. What is the desired material to generate and in what format do you want it to be generated?

Lastly... expectation. What is the output I am expecting? In this example, I want it to create me an outline in a bulleted list so that I can have the liberty of filling out my own details.
