Overloading with Multiple Questions

Asking too many questions at once can confuse the AI and result in incomplete or unfocused answers.

Why This Happens

• The AI may not know which question to prioritize.
• Responses may be shallow or skip important details.

Examples

• Overloaded: "What is AI, how does it work, and what are its risks and benefits?"
• Better:
  1. "What is AI?"
  2. "How does AI work?"
  3. "What are the main risks and benefits of AI?"

How to Avoid

• Break complex requests into separate, focused prompts.
• Ask one question at a time for clarity.
• Use follow-up prompts to dig deeper.

Best Practices

• If you need a summary, ask for a summary. If you need details, ask for details—one at a time.
• Review the AI's answer and decide what to ask next.

Focused prompts get more complete and useful answers from the AI.
