Ever get frustrated with what happens when you try to get an AI to write something?

According to Google Workspace Labs, the average prompt people give an AI is nine words or less.

Nine words!

The AI needs a lot more information than that to do a decent job for you.

But the question is–what information?

Today, we’re going to take a look at how AI goes so very wrong for so many people—and give you some proven ideas on what to do about it.

Here’s a great general model for prompts, which has been shared in social media by Open AI President Greg Brockman:

Here's the attached image transcribed into text form:

>>The Anatomy of a Prompt<<

Goal

I want a list of the best medium-length hikes within two hours of San Francisco.

Each hike should provide a cool and unique adventure, and be lesser known.

Return Format

For each hike, return the name of the hike as I'd find it on AllTrails, then provide the starting address of the hike, the ending address of the hike, distance, drive time, hike duration, and what makes it a cool and unique adventure.

Return the top 3.

Warnings

Be careful to make sure that the name of trail is correct, that it actually exists, and that the time is correct.

Context Dump

For context: my girlfriend and I hike a ton! We've done pretty much all of the local SF hikes, whether that's presidio or golden gate park. We definitely want to get out of town – we did mount tam pretty recently, the whole thing from the beginning of the stairs to stinson – it was really long and we are definitely in the mood for something different this weekend! Ocean views would still be nice. We love delicious food. One thing I loved about the tam hike is that it ends with a celebration (Arriving in town to breakfast!) The old missile silos and stuff near Discovery point is cool but I've just done that hike probably 20x at this point. We won't be seeing each other for a few weeks (she has to stay in LA for work) so the uniqueness here really counts.

Now, what we’ve talked about today will get you to the next level with your AI prompting.

But if you want to jump up to a much higher level, once again we’re going to recommend the AI Novus Copywriting Mastermind.

Jason Parker has figured out how to get AI to write amazing copy, all kinds of copy, that requires very little editing. Complete email campaigns. Hooks for ads. Advertorials. Lists of compelling benefits.

And that’s just scratching the surface.

Nathan and I are both members, and Jason invited me to become a partner in the business. We meet every Thursday, and all the calls are recorded.

You get ready to use AI agents when you join. It’s a terrific value.
