Generative AI is a type of Artificial Intelligence that uses existing content to create new content in the form of text, video, audio, or images by processing a large volume of data. It can be used to create blogs, social media posts, and emails, or to summarize long form content and a lot more. All these rely on the PROMPT.
What's a prompt?
If you're an artist, you might be familiar with
Inktober, which is a month-long art challenge in October focusing on improving your skill and developing a habit. It usually comes with a set of prompts, one for each day of the month consisting of keywords that can help spark an idea.
Similarly, to help generative AI create new, high quality content, we need to come up with a prompt that conveys all our requirements. There is no such thing as a good or a bad prompt, but it can work well when your prompt has detailed context, loaded with all the information that can help the generative AI tool understand better.
For example,
Prompt 1: Write about generative AI for content creators
Prompt 2: Create a Twitter thread on how generative AI can help content creators; also, repurpose the content for an Instagram Reel.
While Prompt 1 will get you all the information that you need, it's prompt 2 that has more context. It just makes it easy for the generative AI tool to understand and tailor the responses accordingly.
