How to Write Prompts: Make the Large Model Understand You

With the same tool, some people achieve high productivity while others just use it as a toy—the gap all lies in the prompt. This article provides a set of reusable writing methods.

Prompt = The "Requirement Document" for AI

Writing prompts is not metaphysics; essentially, it is about clarifying vague requirements.

Universal Four-Part Structure

Role: You are XX
Task: I want you to do XX
Constraints: word count / tone / format / prohibited items
Example: (It is best to provide one sample if available)

Common Mistakes

  • Too short: Only giving verbs without background leaves the AI to guess.
  • Too long: Information is piled up without focus, leading to deviation instead.
  • Asking for too much at once: Break it down into steps, confirm each step before moving on.

Let It Self-Check

Add "After completion, explain how you understood this task in one sentence" at the end, and you can quickly check if it has gone off track.
