Q & A

What is the main reason why 90% of people are getting poor results from AI?

The main reason is that people are missing a critical step in how they communicate with AI, which leads to vague and ineffective results. The method of structuring prompts effectively can significantly improve the outcome.

What is the secret to getting better results with AI?

The secret is in how you communicate with AI. Using a structured prompting method, like the 'Crisp E method,' can drastically improve the quality of the responses you get from AI tools.

What is the 'Crisp E method'?

The 'Crisp E method' is a structured approach to interacting with AI, consisting of six parts: Context, Role, Instruction, Specification, Performance, and Example.

How does the 'Crisp E method' improve AI results?

By clearly defining the context, role, instructions, specifications, performance expectations, and providing examples, you create a roadmap for AI, making it easier for the AI to provide relevant and useful responses.

Why is 'Context' important in the Crisp E method?

Context sets the stage for AI by providing essential background information about your business or situation, the objectives, and the audience. This helps AI understand the problem and tailor its responses accordingly.

What does 'Role' refer to in the Crisp E method?

Role specifies who you want the AI to act as, such as a senior data analyst, marketing director, or any other expert. Being specific about the role ensures that AI uses the appropriate knowledge and perspective.

What should be included in the 'Instruction' part of the Crisp E method?

In the Instruction part, you need to clearly state the task AI must complete, the purpose of the task, and any specific requirements or goals you want to achieve with the AI’s response.

How do you define 'Specification' in the Crisp E method?

Specification is about clearly outlining the format, tone, length, and any specific elements you want in the AI’s response. This ensures that the output is structured and styled in the way you need.

What does 'Performance' mean in the Crisp E method?

'Performance' refers to setting quality standards and expectations for success. You need to tell the AI what a successful outcome looks like, including any industry standards or metrics to follow.

Why is providing an 'Example' important in the Crisp E method?

Providing an example helps AI understand what a good response looks like. You can share previous work, competitor examples, or specific elements you want to replicate to guide the AI in generating better results.

How can this method improve productivity, according to Microsoft’s findings?

Microsoft found that teams using the correct prompting method were three times more productive with AI than those who didn’t use a structured approach, demonstrating the power of clear communication.

What should users do when they’re struggling with AI tasks?

Users should apply the Crisp E method to their tasks and let AI ask questions to clarify any doubts. The more clarity you provide, the better the AI’s results will be.
