Writing AI questions to produce great content + Examples
You've heard from fellow creators how artificial intelligence is speeding up the process of creating content and boosting output. Some are touting hours of saved time, like Hero Douglas Boyce III, and exclaiming that it's the final word on writing block for good once and all. You're sold.
It's time to turn on a creator of content, ask it to "write an article on the best way to hunt for mushrooms", and the machine starts working. A few seconds later the machine churns out the content it thinks is the perfect article--but it's not perfect. There's a lack of important details The tone isn't right, and it wrote only 500 words, when you needed 1,000 words. The text could have been written better by yourself. In a single click you shut the window and erase artificial intelligence forever.
It's easy to become disillusioned with content generators when their outputs miss their mark.
Although we'd like to put the blame for this low-quality content solely on AI's fault, the true problem could lie with your fault (hi, it's me. It's me.). Specifically, the prompt that you're giving the AI tool to create your desired outcome, or that is, the command you provide the AI algorithm to produce its output.
The fact of the matter is a content generator's answers are as accurate as the task you've asked it to perform. That's why we're covering how to write the perfect AI prompt with formulas and examples to use right today!
How to write effectively? AI questions
Here are best practices to be aware whenever you work with an artificial intelligence tool that requires an alert-spoiler, which most use it.
Determine the reason or the goals.
Before you write an AI prompt, clarify what it is you're creating, and what's the purpose behind writing it.
Think about: What purpose is your goal with the content? Who should the audience you are targeting learn after having read the material? Do you wish them to do something like clicking a link or making purchases?
Provide clear and specific directions.
As would be expected, giving vague or unclear prompts may result in an unbalanced response.
In this case, "Explain the meaning of life." wouldn't generate the same response like "Explain the most popular philosophical views about the meaning of life."
For you to make sure you've provided clear instructions to your AI tool,, ask yourself, what is my desired outcome?
Once you've had that query clear, write down the task that should be completed. The task should include stating that the reply should be a certain length or in a certain format (bullet list of 280 characters, for example. ) and what actions you would like for your audience to take as well as the tone and style you want for the AI to write the content in.
Tip for the Pro: The longer and more detailed the question or job is, the more effective the result!
Pose open-ended questions.
When you ask "yes or"no" questions tends to result in more sloppy responses than open-ended questions.
For example Instead of asking "Is coffee bad for you?" (impossible) try asking "What are the top positives and negatives from drinking coffee?".
Asking open-ended questions gives the freedom and space for the tool to answer in the amount of detail it would prefer.
Check your grammar and spelling.
Similar to a human mistakes in spelling or grammar mistakes can confuse artificial intelligence.
Therefore, you must always read your prompt to ensure your grammar and spelling are correct and the language is easy to understand. It should come as a no-brainer, but do not use abbreviations and slang words.
Include context information.
No matter how sophisticated AI tools are, they can't understand the context around the request until you explain the request.
To help them understand the topic, give them background information and contextual information related to your topic and the type of outcome.
For example, who is your AI content writer acting as? What is the intended readership for your material? Include the answers to these inquiries in your prompt.

The perfect AI prompt formula
We've created the perfect AI prompt formula for most Content creators! Make sure to bookmark this blog to always have the formula for prompts at hand.
"Act as" + "write an" + "define an objective" + "define your best formatting"
Let's take an example. Act like a type of expert who is writing copy for a specific use to achieve the desired outcome.
Here's an example of this formula, with empty spaces filled in.
Exemple: Act like a digital marketer or copywriter who writes text for three video headlines, and the descriptions I'll give you for each to accomplish teaching my viewers how to hunt for mushrooms. [Insert video transcript]
It is possible to make the request much more precise by adding details about formatting (how many characters, sentences or sentences, etc. ) as well as tone and style.
