The Idea
A prompt is a clear instruction you give to an AI model. The clearer your prompt, the better the answer. Great prompts include three things: role, task, and format.
Example
Bad: 'write something about cats'. Good: 'Act as a wildlife biologist. Write a 100-word fun fact about domestic cats for kids aged 8.'
