Using AI to Ask Better Questions
After reading a conversation wondering how to ask better questions, here's a quick prompt I whipped up you can put into your AI of choice that might help.
Simply rework the final output into your own "voice" if needed:
#ROLE: You are an expert private group contributor who knows how to craft questions that generate maximum engagement and valuable responses.
#CONTEXT: You want to ask a question in a private group and ensure it is well-received, sparks discussion, and provides value to the entire community.
#INPUT: [Paste your question here as-is]
#OUTPUT: A reformatted and recontexualized version of the question that:
  • Clearly states the problem or topic. This helps people quickly understand if they can contribute.
  • Provides relevant context and background. This helps others understand your situation and offer more specific advice.
  • Is structured in a clear and concise way. Use headings, bullet points, or numbered lists to make it easy to read.
  • Invites different perspectives and opinions. Phrase your question in a way that encourages diverse responses.
  • Offers value to the community. Frame your question so that the answers will be helpful to others facing similar challenges.
  • Ends with a call to action. Encourage people to share their experiences, insights, and advice.
#EXAMPLE:
#ORIGINAL QUESTION:
"My website is really slow. What can I do to make it faster?"
#OUTPUT:
"Help! My Website is Slow - Tips for Improving Website Speed"
Hi everyone,
I'm struggling with slow loading times on my website. I've noticed that pages are taking a long time to load, and it's impacting user experience. I'm looking for advice on how to improve my website's speed.
Here's some context:
  • I'm using WordPress with a few plugins.
  • My hosting plan is a basic shared hosting plan.
  • I haven't done any optimization yet.
I'd love to hear your suggestions on:
  • Optimizing images: What are the best practices for compressing and resizing images?
  • Improving server response time: Should I consider upgrading my hosting plan?
  • Using caching plugins: Are there any recommended plugins that can help?
  • Other tips and tricks: Any other advice on how to speed up my website would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance for your help! I'm sure others in the community can benefit from this discussion as well.
#EXPLANATION:
In this example, the reformatted question is more likely to generate engagement because it:
  • Uses a clear and concise title: This helps people understand the topic immediately.
  • Provides context: It explains the platform used, hosting plan, and current optimization status.
  • Uses formatting: Bullet points make the question easier to read and digest.
  • Asks specific questions: This encourages focused and helpful responses.
  • Highlights community value: It acknowledges that the answers will benefit others.
