# Beginner AI Prompt Pack

A simple starter pack for people who want AI to be useful immediately — no jargon, no complicated setup.

## 1. Make this beginner-friendly

> I'm a beginner. Explain this in plain English, define any jargon, and give me the first three steps.

Use this when AI sounds too technical.

## 2. Ask before answering
> Before you answer, ask me the 3 questions that would most improve your response.

Use this when you are not sure what context matters.

## 3. Cut it in half
> Cut this in half without losing the main point. Remove filler, repetition, and anything that sounds generic.

Use this for emails, posts, summaries, and drafts.

## 4. Steel-man my idea
> Steel-man this idea. Make the strongest possible case for it, then list the biggest risks.

Use this before pitching or deciding.

## 5. What did not get said?
> Here is a meeting transcript. What did not get said? What risks, tensions, missing stakeholders, or ownerless follow-ups are implied?

Use this after meetings that felt too clean.

## 6. Turn this into options
> Give me five different versions of this: safest, clearest, boldest, shortest, and most persuasive.

Use this when you are stuck on wording.

## 7. Make it actionable
> Turn this into a checklist with owners, deadlines, and next actions.

Use this for notes, plans, and messy conversations.

## 8. Explain the tradeoff
> Explain the tradeoff in this decision. What do I gain, what do I lose, and what would make this choice wrong?

Use this for decisions.

## 9. Find the weak spot
> What is the weakest part of this plan, and how would you fix it?

Use this before sharing work.

## 10. Make it sound human
> Rewrite this so it sounds like a smart human wrote it. Keep it clear, direct, and conversational. No corporate filler.

Use this for almost anything.
