Give clear, specific instructions

Inputting a vague or ambiguous prompt can lead to a misaligned response. For example, “Explain the meaning of life” wouldn’t generate as useful of a response as “Explain some popular philosophical perspectives on the meaning of life”. Clearly describe the task that should be completed. Also specify if the response should be a certain length, or in a specific format (i.e. bullet list, etc.).

Ask open-ended questions

Asking “yes or no” questions tends to result in the generation of less detailed responses than asking open-ended questions. For example, instead of asking Ama “Is coffee good for you?” try asking “What are the top benefits and risks of drinking coffee?”

Check your grammar

If you have any grammatical errors or spelling mistakes in your prompt, it can confuse Ama. Proofread your text input to ensure that your language is correct and easy to understand. Avoid the use of abbreviations or slang terms when possible.

Include contextual information

Ama can’t understand the context around your request unless you describe it. Provide some background and contextual information related to your topic and the nature of your desired output. For example, who is Ama acting as? Who is the target audience for the content?

Identify the purpose

In order to generate the best possible content, clarify not only what you’re creating but also why you’re creating it. What goal is the audience trying to achieve? What should they know after reading your content? Do you want them to take a certain action, like clicking a link or making a purchase? Include your desired outcome in your prompt.


Prompt examples

When formulating your own prompt for Ama, be sure to specify:

  • Relevant contextual and background information
  • A specific task or command to be executed
  • The goal(s) or purpose of the content
  • Your desired length and format for the content
Tip:
We recommend using the following formula for your prompts:

“Act like” + “write a” + “define an objective” + “define your ideal format”

Example: Act like { a type of expert } who is writing copy for { a specific use } to achieve { a specific outcome }. Make sure your response is formatted as { how many sentences, how many characters, lists, etc. }
