<aside> ✉️ Sometimes, one input won’t be enough to guide your AI. For more complex use cases, where you want an output in a specific voice, style, or format, you should train the AI through a conversation, providing both general instructions and several input → output examples.

Here are use cases where this would be a good fit:

• Brainstorm creative marketing ideas
• Clean data
• Generate long form copywriting that requires large amounts of context

Read on to learn about how to give your AI training examples in order to accomplish more advanced prompts in the voice you want!

</aside>

Advanced prompting has the same framework as basic prompting. Remember, the framework is:

1. Summarize the general goal:
   1. E.g. Using the input, create a sentence summarizing this company’s mission. (If you have multiple inputs, say something like: I’m going to give you multiple inputs. Using them, write a summary of X.)
2. Provide the core data
   1. E.g. This is the input(s): ___. If any inputs are empty, ignore them.
3. Constrain creativity
   1. E.g. Keep the output <15 words, keep your tone casual, talk as if you were an acquaintance, use specific keywords, etc.
4. Specify what the message should look like
   1. E.g. Everything should start with this prefix: “___.” Or the output should look like this: ___.
