Three Prompt Endings That Take Any Answer From White Belt to Black Belt (AI Prompt Hacks)3 days ago8 min

Andrew Miles Davis returns to prompt hacks with a shift in focus, arguing that as prompting fundamentals become second nature for most people, the real differentiator is what gets added to the end of a prompt rather than the prompt itself. He shares three foundational endings aimed at clarifying message and tone: asking AI to explain something as if you are a complete beginner with no prior knowledge, which forces the model to build from a genuine foundation rather than assuming existing understanding; instructing AI to adopt a specific tone such as professional, empathetic, and reassuring, which shifts focus toward business outcomes and away from purely technical detail, illustrated with a real example of drafting a complaint email calmly despite personal frustration; and asking AI to avoid industry jargon and acronyms in favour of plain, accessible language, preventing specialist terminology from undermining clarity. He also points listeners to his continuously updated prompt endings guide on his website for further examples.
