Unlock the Secret to Sharper AI Responses
Ever feel like your AI assistant isn't quite grasping what you need?
You're not alone.
Whether you're a curious novice or a seasoned security pro, this one simple trick (!) will revolutionize your AI interactions (or your money back).
Here's the secret: Prompt the LLM to prompt you…
At the end of your prompt, ask the AI to pose questions before generating your request. It's like giving the AI permission for an impromptu AMA (Ask Me Anything) session.
Why does this work?
Well, AIs aren't mind readers (no, your company hasn't sprung for that Neuralink subscription… yet). By encouraging the AI to ask questions, you're helping it understand the full context and nuances of your request.
When I use this technique with a leading-edge LLM, it typically fires back 7-10 clarifying questions. This dramatically reduces the number of back-and-forth exchanges, saving you time and often lowering your token generation costs. Plus, you'll avoid hitting those pesky quotas that cut off your AI access for hours.
This approach is a game-changer for crafting more precise and relevant first drafts, whether you're writing a report or generating code. Just remember to swap out any sensitive identifiers. By now, any machine learning of my LLM usage has concluded that ACME Inc is a cyber security basket case and Joe Bloggs the CISO is ready for a career change ;-)
Ready to sharpen your AI saw? Give it a try and watch your LLM chat productivity soar.
