Options That Don't Overlap
Part of the AI Decisions section of Coddy's AI Prompts journey. Lesson 3 of 22.
When two descriptions cover the same thing, the AI has to guess between them. A message that fits both can land in either, and a small change in wording flips it.
A library has two desks. loans claims anything with a date: due dates, opening days, events, and events covers talks and workshops. For When does the poetry evening start on Friday?:
events ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ 0%
loans ████████████████████ 100%The evening has a date, so loans grabbed it. Give each desk its own territory, loans: borrowing, renewing and returning books, events: talks, workshops and other events:
events ████████████████████ 100%
loans ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ 0%Check your descriptions in pairs: could one message honestly belong to both? If so, decide which option owns it and say so in that description.
Challenge
