1. Start smaller than you think

Pick a task you already understand: draft a reply, sort a list or summarise your own notes. That makes it easier to spot when an answer is wrong. Avoid beginning with a high-stakes decision or a fully automated process.

2. Give it a job, a little context and a finish line

Explain the task, who the output is for, the information it may use and what a useful result looks like. Ask for a draft or checklist rather than an irreversible action.

3. Check before you use it

Read the output against your original information. Check names, dates, numbers and missing details. Ask what is uncertain. Keep a human review step before sharing or acting.

4. Try the same task twice

Change one instruction and compare the results. Keep the version that helps. A saved prompt becomes useful when you know the task, inputs, review checks and limits.

A PROMPT TO TRY

Draft a friendly reply to these meeting notes. Use only the details I provide. Keep it under 120 words. Flag missing dates instead of guessing.
