[AI x Input Design 11] "For those who open ChatGPT but freeze up — Just 'pick one' from this checklist to change your results"
Characters
👥 Character Introduction
🌱 Tanaka-kun (right side of screen)
In his 20s.
Curious and a person of action who tries things out as soon as he's interested.
He was a beginner with AI, but
"let's just give it a try"
thanks to this personality, he is gradually expanding the scope of how he uses it.
The protagonist of this work.
🏭 Mr. Sato (left side of screen)
Early 40s. Extremely capable at work, but never shows it off. He doesn't look down on or dismiss others; instead, he listens well and guides people by helping them reach their own realizations. Rather than just being someone who uses AI, he is a reliable senior colleague who uses AI naturally as a result of years of continuous improvement activities.
Currently entering the Creative Awards. Please take a look if you'd like.
Short Story 1
Tanaka-kun gets lost looking for 'answers' from AI
"Tanaka, I have a favor to ask."
After the morning meeting, Tanaka-kun was stopped by his boss.
"Regarding this new product, I want you to research how well it's likely to be accepted in the market before we propose it to the client."
"In the market, you say?"
"That's right. We are quite confident in it. However, I want you to organize how customers will see it and where our competitive advantage lies compared to our rivals."
Tanaka-kun nodded.
Tanaka-kun also understood the merits of the new product.
It is easier to handle than the conventional product.
Work is also more stable.
If used on-site, it will surely be convenient.
However, there was a problem.
Tanaka-kun can explain the product's merits.
But he doesn't know how to view the market.
Competition.
Customer needs.
Price range.
Market size.
Benefits of adoption.
Reasons it will sell.
Reasons it won't sell.
He couldn't quite line up in his head where he should start researching.
"This is exactly when I should use AI."
Tanaka-kun opened ChatGPT and entered the following.
Please research the marketing to see how well the new product we created will be accepted by customers.
A reply came from the AI immediately.
In it, a long list of confirmation items was lined up.
What is the category of the new product?
Who is the target customer segment?
What are the competing products?
What is the price range?
What are the problems customers are struggling with?
What are the strengths of the new product?
What are the differences compared to existing products?
Do you want to know the market size?
Do you want to know the sales strategy?
Do you want to create a proposal for a client?
Tanaka-kun froze as he looked at the screen.
"There's so much..."
He just wanted someone to look up marketing information.
That was all he intended to ask for.
However, looking at the AI's response, he realized he hadn't organized what he actually wanted to know at all.
Do you want to know the market size?
Do you want to compare it with competitors?
Do you want to know the reason it resonates with customers?
Do you want a report for your boss?
Do you want sales proposal materials?
They all seem important.
That's why he had no idea what to choose.
Tanaka-kun sighed.
"I thought if I asked the AI, I'd get an answer right away..."
Just then, Sato-san, who had been watching nearby, spoke up.
"Tanaka-kun, you're trying to get the AI to give you an answer, aren't you?"
"Huh? Isn't that right?"
"It's not wrong. But it's still too early for that stage."
Sato-san pointed to the bullet points lined up on the screen.
"This isn't homework. You don't have to fill in everything."
"I don't have to fill in everything?"
"Yeah. These are just the 'options' the AI gave you. It's just listing what you need to decide in order to get an answer."
Tanaka-kun looked at the screen once more.
Indeed, the AI wasn't refusing to answer.
Before providing an answer, it was making the missing information visible.
Sato-san continued.
"First, you just need to pick one thing from this list that you want to know the most"
"Just one?"
"Yes. You get stuck because you try to choose everything from the start"
Tanaka-kun looked at the bullet points one by one.
Market size.
Competing products.
Price range.
Customer pain points.
Sales strategy.
Proposal materials.
After thinking for a while, Tanaka-kun said.
"What my boss asked for is material before making a proposal to the customer. So, what I want to know first might be 'the reason why a customer would want this new product'."
Sato-san nodded.
"Good. That is the goal this time"
Tanaka-kun entered this into the AI.
Among the current checklist items, what I want to know most is 'the reason why a customer would want this new product'.
Please set aside the other items as things I don't need to think about for now.
The AI immediately organized and returned the response.
Top priority goal
Organize the reasons why a customer would want this new product
Conditions necessary to achieve the goal
Target customer segment
Problems the customer is currently facing
Strengths of the new product
Differences from existing or competitor products
Items that can be postponed this time
Detailed market size
Advertising strategy
Sales channels
Long-term market forecasts
Tanaka felt as if his perspective had cleared up just a little.
"I see... so I don't have to look up everything, I just need to keep what's necessary for my goal first."
"Exactly."
Sato smiled.
"Next, choose the second and third most essential conditions."
"The second and third..."
"In this case, you want to know the reason why customers would want it, right? If so, what information do you think is absolutely necessary to determine that reason?"
Tanaka thought for a moment.
"What the customers are struggling with, I suppose."
"Good. That's the second one."
"And how the new product's strengths address those struggles."
"That's the third one."
Tanaka entered it into the AI once more.
The goal this time is to understand the reasons why customers would want this new product. The second essential condition is the problems customers are currently facing. The third essential condition is how the new product's strengths solve those problems. Based on these three points, please organize this into a format that can be used for a report to my boss.
As a result, the AI's response became much easier to use than before.
Customer issues.
Strengths of the new product.
Points to convey during a proposal.
How to present it compared to competitors.
Headings that can be used in reports.
Tanaka felt the sense that 'something was off,' which he had felt until just a moment ago, begin to fade.
"Sato-san, this means that before having the AI look things up, I'm organizing my own objectives, right?"
"That's right."
Sato-san said.
"At first, Tanaka-kun, you were asking the AI for an "answer". But now, you are working with the AI to create a "format that can produce an answer""
"A format that can produce an answer..."
"What's important when asking an AI isn't creating the perfect question from the start. It's choosing the answer you want most from the options the AI provides."
Tanaka looked back at his initial input.
Please research through marketing how well the new product we created will be accepted by customers.
It wasn't a bad question.
It just hadn't been organized yet.
He had been trying to get the AI to guess his intent.
However, the AI made the missing conditions visible.
By choosing from those, Tanaka's own objectives became clearer.
Sato-san said this at the end.
"Having many options isn't a bad thing. It's proof that your ideas are expanding. But to use them for work, you have to choose what's necessary from among them and prioritize them."
"Reducing the number of options doesn't mean throwing away possibilities, does it?"
"Exactly. You're just setting aside what you won't use this time. It's hard to work if you leave all your tools on the workbench, right? You keep only the necessary tools at hand. Interacting with AI is the same thing."
Tanaka looked at the organized items lined up on the screen.
At first, he didn't know what to ask.
Seeing the AI's checklist made him feel a little down about how unorganized he had been.
But there was no need to fill in everything.
Choose the thing you want to know most.
Choose the second most essential condition.
Choose the third necessary condition.
Set aside anything less relevant for now.
With just that, a vague consultation turned into a question that could yield an answer.
Tanaka-kun muttered quietly.
"Asking AI isn't about getting an answer, it's about organizing things together to reach the answer."
Supplement: Why AI answers become mediocre
When AI returns a mediocre answer, the cause is not just a lack of AI performance.
In many cases, it is in a state where there is not enough information to make a judgment state.
For example, Tanaka-kun entered:
Please investigate whether the new product will be accepted in the market
with that input.
However, the AI does not know about that new product.
What kind of product is it?
Who is it aimed at?
What does it solve?
How is it different from existing products?
Will it win on price, quality, or ease of use?
Without these criteria, the AI has no choice but to return general marketing points.
In other words, from the AI's perspective,
what it should compare it to
what it should consider an advantage
which customers it is valuable to
is unknown.
That is why the output becomes safe and generic.
Information the human side should provide
However, it is dangerous to put company confidential information directly into AI.
Caution is required here.
What is important is not to pass on confidential information as is, but to pass on the structure necessary for judgment.
For example, it is fine to omit specific product names or detailed specifications.
Instead, provide abstracted information like the following:
This product is designed to reduce work time.
The target customers are on-site staff at small and medium-sized manufacturing companies.
Its strengths are reduced workload, stable quality, and shorter training time.
Compared to competitors, I want to highlight ease of implementation as its advantage.
Even with just this much, the AI's output will change significantly.
The most important thing to tell beginners
Beginners do not realize that they are not providing enough information to the AI.
From their perspective,
they feel they have asked properly
but they haven't.
However,from the AI's point of view, there are not enough criteria for judgment.
That is whythe AI provides many confirmation items.
At this point, beginners think,
Do I really have to fill all of these out?
and they get discouraged.
However,you don't actually need to fill them all out.
The confirmation items provided by the AI are not homework.
They are options to help you find what you really want to know.
First, you only need to choose one from among them.
If you have the capacity, choose a second or third one.
Then, provide the chosen conditions to the AI and check if the answer is close to what you were looking for.
If it is close, dig deeper.
If it is different, correct the conditions.
If it is insufficient, add primary information.
This repetition is what dialogue with AI is.
Summary within the article
AI beginners don't get stuck because they lack ability.
It's just that the information you need to give the AI and the answer you want are still mixed up in your head.
The checklist items the AI provides are not homework that you must fill out completely.
They are options for you to choose the answer you want most. First, pick one.
Next, pick a second and a third.
Give them to the AI and look at the answer that comes back. By repeating this small dialogue, the AI's answers will gradually get closer to the form you are looking for.
Short Story 2
Tanaka-kun doesn't use the AI's answer as is, but deepens it further
Tanaka-kun organized his goals together with the AI.
The first thing he wanted to know was,
the reason why customers would want this new product
was.
The next non-negotiable condition was,
the problems customers are currently facing
And the third was,
how the new product's strengths solve those problems
was.
When he conveyed these three things to the AI, it returned a much more usable answer than before.
The AI organized the problems customers likely face and summarized in bullet points how the new product's strengths help with them.
Tanaka-kun nodded while looking at the screen.
"I feel like this is much better than before."
Sato-san also peeked at the screen from the side.
"Yeah. It's become much more usable than the first response."
Tanaka-kun felt a little relieved.
However, as he read it over, something bothered him.
"But..."
"What is it?"
"I feel like it's still weak somehow."
"Where?"
Tanaka-kun was silent for a moment.
Where was it weak? He couldn't quite put it into words.
The AI's text was polished. The bullet points were easy to read. The customer's pain points and the product's strengths were all listed.
Yet, he felt it was a bit thin to submit to his boss as is.
"I'm sorry. I don't even know myself where it's weak."
When Tanaka-kun said that, Sato-san laughed.
"That's fine."
"Huh?"
"If you don't know, just ask the AI exactly that."
Sato-san pointed at the keyboard.
"Try asking the AI this."
Tanaka-kun typed it in just as he was told.
The response is better than before.
However, I still feel it's a bit weak for use in a report to my boss.
Please point out where it is weak.
Also, please ask me for any additional information needed to make it stronger.
The AI replied immediately.
Points that may be weak
The customer problem is still generic, making it hard to visualize the actual customer profile.
It is not specific enough about how the new product's strengths address the customer's pain points.
The differences compared to competitor products are still vague.
There is a lack of evidence or comparison criteria that would make it easy for a boss to make a decision.
The reason why the target customer needs this product right now is weak.
Tanaka-kun let out an involuntary sound.
"I see... so that's what it meant by 'weak'."
Sato-san nodded.
"Exactly. You felt it was 'weak', Tanaka-kun. But you hadn't been able to put that weakness into words yet. You had the AI break that down for you."
Tanaka-kun thought while reading the AI's response.
Indeed, the customer problem was still a general theory.
It says 'want to reduce work burden' or 'want to stabilize quality', but it doesn't showwhat kind of specific problems they are facing on the ground.
The new product's strengths were also limited to phrases like 'easy to handle' and 'stable'.
How much value does that actually hold for the customer?
How is it different from the competition?
He hadn't delved that far yet.
The AI continued with questions.
Additional points to confirm
What kind of industry and workplace are you assuming for the customer?
What specific task is the customer currently struggling with?
How does the new product make the task easier?
What is the biggest difference compared to existing or competing products?
What is it that you ultimately want your boss to decide?
Tanaka-kun froze up a little again.
'The questions have increased again, haven't they?'
Sato-san said immediately.
'You don't have to answer all of them.'
'Oh, it's that again.'
'Yes. It's the same as before. Just choose the one from this list that you can answer most easily right now and that will be most effective.'
Tanaka-kun looked over the questions again.
Industry/Workplace.
Customer pain points.
How the new product makes things easier.
Differences from competitors.
What you want your boss to decide.
The one Tanaka-kun found easiest to answer was the strength of the new product he had seen on-site.
'I think I can answer number 3. How the new product makes the task easier.'
'That's good. Then let's input that.'
Tanaka-kun entered it into the AI, being careful not to touch on any confidential information.
I will omit the detailed specification names. This new product is designed to reduce the effort required for tasks compared to conventional methods and to minimize variations between operators. In particular, its strength lies in being easy to handle even for inexperienced operators and making it easier to stabilize quality. Based on this information, please strengthen the previous answer.
The AI regenerated the response.
This time, the connection between the customer's pain points and the new product's strengths was much clearer than before.
Customer pain points
Quality varies depending on the operator
Work is difficult to stabilize when new staff or temporary help join
Training takes a long time
Complex procedures lead to more errors
Value of the new product
Simplifies work procedures, making it easy for inexperienced people to handle
Reduces differences between operators and makes quality easier to stabilize
Potential to shorten training time
Reduces the verification burden on site managers
How to present the proposal
"A product that stabilizes overall site operations without relying solely on skilled workers"
"A product that makes it harder for quality to drop even when new staff or temporary help join"
"A proposal that simultaneously reduces both operational and training burdens"
Tanaka-kun looked at the screen and his eyes widened.
"It's gotten much better."
Sato-san said.
"That's right. The current answer is much stronger than the first one."
"What changed, I wonder?"
"You provided primary information."
"Primary information..."
"It's what you, Tanaka-kun, have seen and know from the field. How the new product is useful. Where its strengths lie. The AI doesn't know that. So, when you input that, the answer becomes concrete all at once."
Tanaka-kun recalled his initial question.
Please research this for marketing.
At that time, he thought the AI would research the market on its own and provide an answer.
But in reality, the AI did not have information about his company's products.
What should be viewed as a strength?
What should it be compared with?
For whom is it valuable?
That was missing.
That is why the AI's answer was mediocre.
"In other words, to get the AI to provide an answer, I have to give it the material it needs to make a judgment."
"That's right."
Sato-san nodded.
"But it's dangerous to input confidential company information as is. So, hide the product names and detailed specifications. Instead, abstract and provide 'what kind of problems it solves,' 'who it is valuable to,' and 'what you want it to see as a strength.'"
Tanaka-kun read the AI's response once more.
It's not finished yet.
But he could see where he needed to go deeper.
Tanaka-kun asked the AI further.
This has become much better. However, to submit this to my boss, I feel the competitive advantage compared to rivals is still weak. What additional information is needed to strengthen the competitive comparison?
The AI answered.
Information needed to strengthen competitive comparison
Main features of competing products
Strengths of competing products
Weaknesses of competing products
Comparison axes where our product can win
Points customers prioritize when comparing
Elements for differentiation other than price
This time, Tanaka-kun didn't try to fill everything out at once.
"This time, it seems like it's enough to just focus on the weaknesses of the competing product and the comparison axes where our product can win."
Sato-san smiled.
"Oh, you're starting to be able to choose now."
Tanaka-kun entered it into the AI.
I will omit the specific name of the competitor.
The competitor has high performance, but my impression is that it takes time to get used to handling it.
For our product, I want to highlight its ease of use and stability in the field rather than its peak performance.
With these conditions, please strengthen the expression of the competitive comparison.
The AI refined the phrasing of the competitive comparison.
Differences from the competitor
The competing product is high-performance but takes time to master
Our product prioritizes ease of handling and operational stability in the field
Our strength is not high performance for experts, but ease of stable operation for the entire team
Potential to reduce the burden of training after implementation
A sentence for the proposal
This product does not just pursue peak performance; it is designed with a focus on stable, practical use in the field.
The ability to contribute to quality stability across the entire team, including not just experts but also newcomers and support staff, is what differentiates it from the competition.
Tanaka-kun let out a small sigh.
"With this, I think I can show it to my boss."
Sato-san said.
"I didn't come up with this answer from the start. I got closer to it little by little while interacting with the AI."
Tanaka-kun nodded.
At first, he was asking the AI for the answer.
Next, he chose his objective from the options the AI provided.
Then, looking at the answer that came out, he felt it was 'still weak'.
He had the AI break down that weakness and added the missing information.
It wasn't just a matter of receiving an answer and being done with it.
Look at the answer and provide feedback on what feels off.
Ask about the weak points.
Confirm the necessary information.
Add the primary information you possess.
Have the AI refine it once more.
Through that repetition, the AI's answer gradually became something usable.
Tanaka-kun rewrote the headings of his report.
Reasons why the new product is accepted by customers
Challenges faced by customers
What the new product can solve
Competitive advantages
A key sentence to emphasize during a proposal
And finally, he made this note.
AI is not a partner that gives you a finished answer from the start.
It is a partner with whom you strengthen the answer together by feeding back your own intuition and primary information.
Stage 1: Choose an objective from the options the AI provides
Stage 2: Look at the resulting answer and ask the AI about its weak points
Stage 3: The AI provides the necessary information
Stage 4: The human side adds primary information
Stage 5: The AI strengthens the answer
As for supplementary explanation, this one sentence is the core.
When you feel the AI's answer is weak, just asking it to "make it better" is not enough.
By asking the AI "where is it weak?" or "what information is needed to make it stronger?", you can see what information you should provide next.
Short Story 3
Sato-san reveals the true nature of AI power users
Tanaka-kun continued his interaction with the AI several times.
At first, he had only asked for market research on a new product.
However, the AI returned a long list of items to confirm.
From that list, he chose what he wanted to know most, and then selected the second and third non-negotiable conditions.
Furthermore, looking at the answer that came out, he asked the AI back about the weak points.
As a result, the report content became much more useful than it was at the beginning.
Tanaka-kun muttered while looking at the screen.
"Sato-san, does this mean... in the end, are AI power users doing this all the time?"
Sato-san smiled a little.
"That's right. I think that's pretty close."
"But I thought power users were people who could write great prompts from the start."
"That's half right, and half wrong, I suppose."
"It's wrong?"
Sato-san sat back in his chair.
"I was the same as you, Tanaka-kun, at first."
"Eh, you too, Sato-san?"
"Yeah. I thought that if I asked the AI, I would get an answer immediately. So at first, I was asking quite sloppily."
Sato-san said this as if remembering his former self.
"Things like 'make this better,' 'make it sell,' or 'make it easier to understand.'"
Tanaka felt a little relieved.
"So even you were like that, Sato-san."
"Of course. I didn't use it well from the start. It's just that I was a bit persistent."
"Persistent?"
"Yes. When the AI's answer was mediocre, I didn't just end it by thinking, 'This is useless.' I asked the AI back why it was mediocre."
Sato pointed at Tanaka's screen.
"For example, if you feel the AI's answer is thin, you ask this:"
I feel this answer is a bit weak.
Please point out where it is weak.
Please tell me what additional information is needed to make it stronger.
"Then the AI will provide the missing conditions."
"Yes. That came up earlier, too."
"But this is where many people stop. Because there are too many conditions."
Tanaka nodded.
"I also thought I had to fill in everything at first."
"That's the fork in the road."
Sato continued slowly.
"I also tried to fill in all the conditions the AI brought up at first. But doing that is tiring. It takes time. And even if you fill them all in, it doesn't necessarily result in a good answer."
"It's no good even if you fill them all in?"
"It's not so much that it's no good, but the importance varies."
"Importance..."
"Among the checklist items AI provides, some are needed right now, while others can be put off for later. So, if you treat them all with the same weight, you'll only end up more confused."
Tanaka-kun thought for a moment.
"Then, what do advanced users do?"
Sato-san said.
"They pull out what is most necessary first."
"Pull out?"
"Yes. Don't try to add all the missing information. First, from the options that appear, pick the one that will have the most impact on the answer you need this time."
Sato-san drew a simple diagram on a piece of paper.
Many conditions
↓
Pick the most necessary one
↓
Add the second and third ones to it
↓
Make the AI think again
"This is what I realized"
"So, instead of adding, you pick first."
"Exactly. You don't add everything. First, you pull out what is necessary. After that, you add high-value information little by little."
Tanaka-kun wrote those words in his notebook.
Don't fill in everything; pull out what is most necessary.
Sato-san continued.
"What's needed to improve AI's answers isn't just increasing the amount of information. Rather, it's deciding which information to prioritize."
"Prioritization, right?"
"Yes. It's the same in work. If you adopt every opinion raised in a meeting, you won't know what you're trying to achieve. Even with improvements, if you try to fix all the problems at once, the team will get confused."
"Look at the most effective area first."
"Exactly."
Sato-san looked at the report draft that Tanaka-kun had created.
"Regarding this matter, what was the first thing you extracted?"
Tanaka-kun replied.
"The reason why customers would want this new product."
"Right. That was the most necessary thing."
"Next is the problem the customer is struggling with."
"And the third one?"
"How the new product's strengths solve that problem."
Sato-san nodded.
"That's enough to determine the direction of the answer. If you had tried to include everything from market size, advertising strategy, sales channels, to long-term forecasts from the start, what do you think would have happened?"
"I probably would have lost track of what I was researching."
"Exactly."
Tanaka-kun recalled the flow of events up until just now.
At first, he asked the AI for an answer.
Next, the AI returned a large number of checklist items.
That was when he almost froze up.
But he learned that he didn't have to fill in everything.
He chose the most necessary thing.
He chose the next most important thing.
He added the missing primary information.
He asked the AI about the weak points.
He chose further necessary information.
As a result, the AI's answers became stronger little by little.
"Sato-san, are AI experts not so much people with amazing knowledge, but rather people who are good at nurturing the AI's answers?"
Sato-san thought for a moment before answering.
"That's quite close."
"Nurturing the answer..."
"Don't try to get the perfect answer from AI on the first try. Look at the answer you get, and ask where it's weak. Confirm what information is missing. Choose the most valuable piece from that. Then, make the AI think again."
Mr. Sato said, counting on his fingers.
"The important thing is this repetition."
Generate.
Select.
Add.
Correct.
Deepen.
"You cycle through this many times."
Tanaka-kun narrowed his eyes slightly.
"That's the same as improving things on the ground, isn't it?"
"That's right. Formulate a hypothesis. Observe on-site. Find the gap. Change the conditions. Try again. Dialogue with AI is similar to that."
Tanaka-kun finally felt like he understood.
An advanced AI user is not someone who can write a perfect prompt from the start.
They are someone who doesn't accept the AI's answer as is,
finds the weak points,
selects the necessary information,
adds primary information,
and can make the answer stronger little by little.
Mr. Sato said this at the end.
"Tanaka-kun. When using AI, you don't have to try to create a perfect question from the start."
"Yes."
"What's important is to look at what the AI has produced and choose what you truly need."
"Don't fill in everything, just pull out what is most necessary."
"Exactly. And then, add the second and third most valuable pieces of information to that most necessary thing."
Mr. Sato said, looking at the screen.
"It's extremely simple. Expand, select, add, and deepen. That's all there is to it."
Tanaka-kun wrote it down in his notebook once more.
Don't just get answers from AI; cultivate answers together with AI.
When he saw those words, Tanaka felt like he finally understood a little bit about how to interact with AI.
Many people think too much that they 'must create a proper question' before using AI.
But that is a bit of a waste.
AI is not just a tool that receives completed questions.
It is also a partner to create questions with.
Once you understand this, your relationship with AI will change significantly.
Actual dialogue with AI
Anyone can make things complex, but making them simple is actually quite difficult. It's about choosing just one necessary thing, choosing something that absolutely cannot be left out, and if there isn't one, telling the AI to give you more options.
Thinking time: 1 second
Yes. This is quite important.
Complexity is easy.
If you ask AI, options, conditions, and points of caution will increase indefinitely.
But what beginners really need is not to increase information, but tochoose the first oneinstead.
To rephrase this,
The first step in utilizing AI is not to fill in many conditions.
It is to choose one thing from the many conditions that have emerged that 'cannot be left out'.
is it.
And even if you can't find that one thing, it's not a failure.
In that case, you should just say this to the AI.
There is nothing here that feels right to me.
Please break it down into easier-to-understand options.
Or,
Please provide the options again using words that are easier for beginners to choose from.
So this is how it should be.
In other words, what beginners need is not the ability to choose the correct answer from the start.
It is the ability to have the AI recreate the options into a form they can choose from when they are unable to decide.
Including this makes it quite practical.
The flow is as follows.
1. First, ask broadly
I want to make a post that gets attention on social media.
But I don't know what to ask or how to ask it.
2. Have the AI provide options
Please provide the necessary checklist items to answer this consultation.
3. Don't try to fill everything out
From these, please organize what I should choose first.
4. Choose only one
This time, I will prioritize "whether the reader can feel that this is about them."
5. If you can't find one, have the options recreated
I still can't choose from these options. Please provide them with more concrete examples.
This concept of "choosing one" or "having the options recreated if you can't choose" is quite simple.
And it is powerful.
You don't need to memorize complex prompts.
You don't need to fill in a massive amount of conditions.
First, just choose one thing that is absolutely essential.
