About this exercise

Write a prompt that applies the criteria to one vendor and returns three plain-text lines starting Facts:, Criteria met:, Proposed tier:. Under 70 words. The last line must read in the form "Proposed tier: Tier N - risk owner to confirm". Count only real personal data.

Common mistakes when you ask AI for this

  • Counting the test records. AI counts 43,000 records and picks Tier 1. Try: Say: "Do not count the 40,000 synthetic records."
  • Using the sales view. AI repeats 'low risk' as a reason. Try: Say: "Do not use the account manager's opinion."
  • Wrong ending. AI ends with a long recommendation. Try: Say: "Last line exactly: Proposed tier: Tier 2 - risk owner to confirm"
  • Getting markdown back. AI adds bold, headings and bullets by default, which show up as stray symbols when pasted. Try: Say "plain text, no bold, no headings, no asterisks".
  • Trusting the AI to count words. AI is bad at counting and usually runs long, so a vague "keep it short" lands over the limit. Try: Cap each part instead of the total, for example "each line under 15 words".

What a strong prompt includes

  • Three labels
  • Excludes synthetic
  • Compare to threshold
