These prompts are simple and elicit general responses, often without requiring context. They demand little interpretation from the AI.
Example: "Tell me a joke."
"Explain photosynthesis."
While still straightforward, these prompts include specific guidelines to steer the AI's responses.
Example: "Share an astronaut-related joke."
"Explain photosynthesis in terms a fifth-grader would understand."
These prompts require the AI to interpret user input and produce a fitting answer, demanding a certain level of understanding and adaptability.
Example: "What meal can I make with tomatoes, lettuce, and chicken?"
"Translate 'See you tomorrow' into French."
These prompts challenge the AI to handle multiple tasks at once, requiring it to categorize and prioritize different user inputs.
Example: "Summarize 'To Kill a Mockingbird' and discuss its themes."
"Diagnose potential illnesses based on symptoms: fever, cough, loss of smell."
These prompts involve complex instructions without providing example outputs, requiring the AI to analyze intricate user inputs.
Example: "Create a project timeline for a new mobile app, considering stages like market research and deployment."
"Draft a 5-year financial plan with an income of $80,000/year and expenses of $45,000/year."
