Bad prompt.
Better direction.

Better prompt

Act as a clear and professional business writer. Write a concise follow-up email to a prospective client after our first meeting. Thank them for their time, summarize the two agreed next steps, and propose a 30-minute call next week. Keep the tone warm and confident, use fewer than 160 words, and end with a specific call to action.

Better prompt

Act as a patient biology tutor. Explain photosynthesis to a 15-year-old student who understands basic cell structure but finds chemistry difficult. Start with a simple real-world analogy, explain the process in five numbered steps, define the essential terms, and finish with three short questions that check understanding. Use clear English and avoid unnecessary jargon.

Better prompt

Act as a senior JavaScript developer. Review the code I provide, identify the root cause of the error, and explain it in plain language before showing the correction. Preserve the existing behavior and coding style unless a change is necessary. Return: 1) the diagnosis, 2) the corrected code, and 3) two brief tests that demonstrate the fix. Do not invent missing dependencies; ask one focused question if essential context is unavailable.

Better prompt

Act as a social media strategist for a small productivity software brand. Write an Instagram carousel concept that introduces a new focus timer to university students. Create a strong first-slide hook, five short educational slides, and a final call to action. Keep each slide under 18 words, use an energetic but credible tone, and provide a caption without exaggerated claims. The objective is to encourage free trials, not immediate purchases.

Better prompt

Act as a general fitness planning assistant. Create a four-week beginner exercise schedule for an adult who can train at home three times per week for 30 minutes and has access to resistance bands. Prioritize consistency and gradual progression. Present each session in a table with exercise, sets, repetitions, and rest. Include warm-up and recovery guidance, avoid medical claims, and clearly recommend professional advice if pain or health concerns are present.

Better prompt

Act as a short-form video creative director. Generate eight original 20–30 second video concepts for a beginner-friendly AI education account. Each concept must teach one practical idea, open with a curiosity-driven hook, work without expensive equipment, and end with a natural invitation to save or share the video. Present the concepts in a table with hook, visual action, lesson, and closing line. Avoid fear-based or misleading claims about AI.
