How can I improve my prompts for AI assistants?

For example, instead of asking for a general lesson plan, specify the grade level, subject focus, and include detailed requirements. This will help the AI assistant deliver more relevant and useful results.
What are the different conversation styles available in Copilot?
Microsoft Copilot offers three conversation styles: Creative, which is suitable for brainstorming and artistic expressions; Balanced, which works well for casual conversations and summarizing information; and Precise, ideal for concise, factual responses. Selecting the appropriate style can guide the AI in generating responses that align with your needs.
How can I specify the format of the AI's response?
You can request your AI assistant to format responses in various ways, such as tables, diagrams, or outlines. By specifying the desired format in your prompt, you can receive results that are more organized and ready for use, reducing the need for further editing.
