  • Most LLM platforms can carry on an extended conversation, understanding what has already been said.
  • As needed, tell the AI to adjust reading level, excitement level, length of response, etc.
  • Consider creating an identity for yourself and your audience (if appropriate). I am an instructor looking for a use-case scenario for graduate students learning about literature databases.
  • Adjust the prompt phrasing to elicit more relevant responses, e.g., more specific information:
    • I am a medical library instructor looking for a use-case scenario for Biodesign graduate students learning about medical device databases.
    • I am a clinical instructor looking for a use-case scenario for medical students learning about evidence-based medicine, including searching medical literature databases like PubMed.
