Common mistakes when you ask AI for this
- Old meeting time. The AI uses 10:00 am. Try: Say: "Northfield moved to 9:30 am."
- Including costs. The AI adds the nightly rate or budget. Try: Say: "Leave out all costs."
- Missing labels. The AI writes a narrative. Try: Say: "Six labels in order."
- Markdown. The AI bolds labels. Try: Say: "Plain text."
- Trusting the AI to count words. AI is bad at counting. Ask for a total word limit and it often lands over it. Try: Cap each field: "each field under 20 words."
- Trusting the AI to count words. AI is bad at counting. Ask for a total word limit and it often lands over it. Try: Cap each part instead, for example: "each line under 12 words."
