Tips and Tricks

Refining Responses

If the first response isn’t quite right:

  • Ask for clarification: “Can you make that more concise?”
  • Request changes: “Rewrite that in a more formal tone”
  • Add requirements: “Include specific examples”

Continuing Work

  • “Continue” - to extend a response that was cut off
  • “Elaborate on point 3” - to get more detail on specific sections
  • “Create a variation” - to get alternative versions

Saving Important Information

  • Copy responses to your notes
  • Export conversations as needed
  • Use the star feature for quick access

Limitations to Keep in Mind

  • Knowledge Cutoff: AI models have training data up to specific dates
  • No Real-time Data: Cannot access current events or live data, unless using tools like MCP
  • Context Limits: Very long conversations may lose earlier context
  • Accuracy: Always verify important information, especially for critical decisions
