Skill 1: Basic Instructions

Give Simple, Direct Commands Without Examples

Understanding Basic Instructions

Starting your AI journey is as simple as asking for what you want. Basic instructions are like giving directions to a helpful friend—clear, direct, and to the point. You don't need fancy language or complex explanations. Just say what you need.

For example, instead of “I was wondering if perhaps you might be able to help me understand…,” you can simply say “Explain photosynthesis.” The AI understands plain language best.

Practice Activities

• Try It Now: Type a concise request and run it in the chat box.
• Quick Challenge: Keep it short—aim for a single sentence.
• Experiment Time: See how the AI responds when you ask for a specific form or length.
