Step 1 of 3
Give it a useful starting point.
An AI assistant can help you draft an email. You still decide what the message should say, whether the details are right, and when to send it.
A helpful request usually includes three things:
- The task. What do you want to create? Here, it’s a short email to move a meeting.
- The context. Who is reading it, and what do they need to know?
- The shape. Ask for the tone, length and details that would make the draft useful.
Compare the two starting points.
A vague request
“Write me an email.”
A useful brief
“Write a friendly email to a colleague to reschedule a meeting. Keep it under 100 words and leave placeholders for two new times.”
Your first answer doesn’t need to be perfect. You can follow up with “Make that less formal” or “Keep the apology to one sentence”.
