How to improve the output
Replace every bracketed variable with decision-specific context. Supply source material, dates, geography, constraints and definitions. Ask the assistant to label assumptions and uncertainty. Verify factual claims against primary sources and let an accountable person challenge the recommendation before action.
Responsible AI use: do not enter confidential, personal or regulated information unless your organization has approved the tool and data controls. AI output can be incomplete, biased or wrong.
