Tips for Effective Editing
Be Clear About Intent
- ❌ “Fix this”
- ✅ “Make this introduction grab the reader’s attention with a compelling hook”
Provide Context
- ❌ “Make it better”
- ✅ “This is for a job application—make it sound confident but not arrogant”
Iterate
Sometimes you strike gold right away but don’t expect perfection on the first try. Sometimes working with AI is about iteration and refining your prompt again and again until you get what you want:- Make an initial request
- Review the changes
- Ask for refinements: “Good, but make the ending stronger by looping back to the initial points in the opening sections and driving them home.”
