Get the Best Out of Computer: Prompts and Tips for Better Results

How to Make a Request

Computer makes it easy to get the results you need, no matter the task. Here’s how to use it effectively:

  1. Select the Right Tool: Choose the tool best suited for your task (e.g. AI Chat, Build, Create Images, AI Docs, AI Slides).

  2. Enter Your Query: Clearly describe your request. Be as specific as possible to get the best results.

  3. Submit Your Query: Click the submit button and let Computer process your request.

  4. Review the Response: Analyse the response or result, and if needed, refine your query for further assistance.

Example Requests:

  • "Draft a formal email requesting collaboration on a new project."

  • "Build a one-page website for a local coffee shop, with a menu and contact section."

  • "Summarise this research paper to highlight its findings." (with a document upload or link)

  • "Generate a creative visual for a tech startup’s homepage."

  • "Create an investor pitch deck for a new fintech app."


Advanced Query Options

For more tailored results, take advantage of advanced options:

  • Specify Tone: Use terms like "formal," "casual," or "persuasive."

  • Set Filters: Request outputs within specific timeframes or for particular audiences.

Examples:

  • "Write a casual birthday message for a friend."

  • "Analyse customer feedback data from Q3 and identify key trends."

  • "Create a presentation slide design that’s modern and professional."


Tips for Better Results

  • Be Clear: Provide as much detail as possible to ensure the AI understands your needs.

  • Use Keywords: Focus your query using relevant terms to refine the output.

  • Experiment: Try different phrasings if you’re not getting the desired results.


Understanding Response Accuracy

Computer is designed to provide accurate and relevant results. However, if you’re unsatisfied:

  • Rephrase or add details to your query for more precise responses.

  • Check your data or inputs to ensure accuracy.
