Lesson 2 · AI Explorer
From vague to precise.
Beginners treat the first response as the finished result — accept it or start over.
That's like accepting the first draft of an essay. The real skill is steering: reading what came back, working out what's wrong with it, and asking for a specific change.
"Shorter, and drop the third point." "Use an example from cricket instead." "That's too formal — write it like you're explaining to a friend."
Each round gets closer. This is iteration, which you've done all year with animation timings, game balance and CSS values.
When an answer isn't right, say specifically what's wrong rather than repeating the question:
| What's wrong | What to say |
|---|---|
| Too long | "Cut this to 100 words, keep the main point" |
| Too complicated | "Explain it for a Class 7 student" |
| Generic | "Use a specific example from an Indian school" |
| Wrong angle | "Focus on the cost, not the history" |
| Might be invented | "Which parts should I verify, and how?" |
Notice these are all diagnoses. "That's not right, try again" gives the AI nothing to work with — same as a bug report saying "it's broken".
