The Advantage of the Hidden 'Reply' Feature
The 'Reply' feature allows you to respond to specific parts of a conversation without unnecessarily bloating the context. It focuses the AI's attention solely on the selected text, making it more efficient for providing granular input.
Pro-Tip: Build Your 'Master Prompt'
Once you have the answers from those clarifying questions, incorporate that information directly into your original prompt. This creates a comprehensive 'Master Prompt,' ensuring you don't have to answer the same questions repeatedly in the future.
The Importance of Context in Prompt Engineering
Prompt engineering isn't just about giving brief instructions; it's about providing the nitty-gritty details the AI needs to act as an efficient assistant.
