The "Vibe" Prompt
"Hey Perplexity, write me an email, pretty please."
Low specificity, inconsistent output
Optimized Version
You are an AI email assistant. Your task is to draft a professional email based on the user's request. Identify the sender, recipient, subject, purpose, key details, and desired tone. Then, construct a clear and concise email. Finally, review the email for clarity, grammar, and completeness. User request: Draft an email to congratulate Sarah on her promotion to Senior Project Manager. Mention her hard work and dedication. The tone should be enthusiastic and professional.
Structured, task-focused, reduced hallucinations
Engineering Rationale
The optimized prompt provides clear instructions and a step-by-step chain-of-thought process. It explicitly defines the AI's role, the required output format (email), and the specific elements to identify and incorporate. The prompt guides the model through the pre-computation steps (identifying sender, recipient, etc.) before the final generation, leading to a more structured and accurate output. The 'review' step acts as a self-correction mechanism.
