Talking to AI with a one-line prompt is like walking into a restaurant and just saying, “Food.”
This little cheat sheet is your menu translator.
Tell the model the subject, the medium, the vibe, the lighting, even the persona—and suddenly it stops serving you lukewarm content soup and starts plating something you’d actually show another human.
Examples > vague instructions.
Personas > “be smart pls.”
Step-by-step reasoning > “just figure it out, robot.”
In other words: the problem usually isn’t that AI is dumb.
It’s that we’re mumbling our order.
