Clear context, a defined format and iterative feedback do more than clever tricks.
Give context
Tell the assistant who the output is for, what it is for and any constraints. Context turns generic answers into useful ones.
Specify the format
Ask for a table, a short list or a draft email. Defining the shape saves editing time.
Iterate
Treat the first response as a draft. Follow up with specific feedback such as “shorter”, “more formal” or “add an example”.
Verify important facts
AI assistants can make mistakes. Check names, numbers and claims against reliable sources before you rely on them.
