AI doesn’t understand context the way humans do.
Yet context is everything.
When you tell ChatGPT “it’s cold,” it doesn’t know if you’re talking about the weather, your coffee, or your relationship. But with the right prompting, it can learn to navigate these contextual waters.
This is the context game – the delicate dance between human intent and machine interpretation.
Mastering it changes everything:
– Better outputs
– Fewer misunderstandings
– More reliable results
– Increased productivity
The secret? Think like a detective giving instructions to a brilliant but literal-minded assistant.
Every detail matters. Every assumption needs stating. Every context clue builds a clearer picture.
This isn’t just about better prompts – it’s about better thinking. When we clarify context for AI, we often clarify our own thoughts in the process.
The next time you’re frustrated with an AI response, ask yourself: What context am I assuming but not stating?
The answer might surprise you.
And it might just be the key to unlocking AI’s full potential in your daily work.
