Common pitfalls and solutions: Newbies must know the design errors of prompts
#The Lack of Iteration Trap: Expecting Perfect Results the First Time
Symptoms of pitfalls:
1.Overly complex initial prompts.
2.Giving up when not satisfied with the initial output
3.Lack of analysis and feedback on AI output
1.Overly complex initial prompts.
2.Giving up when not satisfied with the initial output
3.Lack of analysis and feedback on AI output
Strategies to address this:
1.Take an incremental approach: Start with basic prompts and gradually add details and requirements.
2.Actively seek feedback: Ask the AI to self-evaluate its output and provide suggestions for improvement.
3.Prepare for multiple rounds of dialogue: Design a series of follow-up questions to clarify and improve the initial output.

#The Over-Directive and Ambiguous Directive Trap: When Details Overwhelm the Focus or Intent Is Unclear
Symptoms of pitfalls:
1.Prompts are unusually long or too brief.
2.AI outputs are seriously inconsistent with expectations.
3.Requirements frequently need to be clarified or re-explained.
1.Prompts are unusually long or too brief.
2.AI outputs are seriously inconsistent with expectations.
3.Requirements frequently need to be clarified or re-explained.
Strategies:
1.Balance detail: Provide enough context, but avoid being too restrictive.
2.Clarify key points: Highlight the 2-3 most important requirements.
3.Use a structured format: Organize requirements with a clear structure.
4.Provide examples: If possible, give short examples of desired outputs.
