1. "Give me a prompt that does X"

   
   

   Rather than writing "Summarise this", write "Give me a prompt that summarises this". It delivers a much higher quality prompt.

2. "Critique your output"

   
   

   After I get an answer, I always use this prompt. It forces the LLM to rethink its answer.

3. "Summarise this doc and directly quote the final sentence"

   
   

   This reveals whether the LLM has actually scanned the whole doc (sometimes the LLM didn't bother to get to the end)

4. "What is the real question hiding behind my question?"

   
   

   Get the LLM to rethink your original question

5. "Give me the 20% that matters most"

   
   

   Make the LLM go straight to the point
