🏫 The “If-Then” Prompt for Decision-Making

📌 Quick Context:

Want AI to provide smarter, more relevant answers instead of generic responses? Use the “If-Then” structure in your prompts. This helps AI evaluate conditions and give context-aware suggestions tailored to your needs.

How to Do It in 3 Steps:

🔹 Step 1: Define the Condition ("If")

Clearly specify the situation or requirement that should guide AI’s response.

🔹 Step 2: Specify the Outcome ("Then")

Tell AI exactly what you want it to do when the condition is met.

🔹 Step 3: Add Multiple Conditions for Complex Logic

For more nuanced responses, add multiple conditions.
