About you
In the About you field, describe what the model should know about you to provide better responses. Example: If you ask toWrite me a short thank you message for the colleagues in my department for going the extra mile the last 2 weeks, the model does not know which department you work in.
If you specify in the custom instructions, I work in marketing, that context gets sent along with your thank you message request. The response will be tailored specifically to your marketing team.
Examples:
- What is your job?
- What is important to you in communication
- What are the main topics you are working with?
- What tasks do you want to accomplish with Langdock?
- What is your target audience? To whom should the answers be addressed?
Model instructions
In the Model instructions field, describe what role the model should take on, what answers should look like, and in what style they should be written. You can ask to always write in continuous text, in a particular style, or as if the answer were written by a specific person or role. Examples:- Always write in a formal tone.
- Never mention that you are an AI.
- If something is beyond your knowledge, say “I don’t know” instead of guessing.
- Break complex tasks into smaller steps and explain each one.
- If a question is ambiguous, ask for clarification before answering.
- Offer multiple perspectives or solutions when relevant.
- Keep paragraphs to no more than three sentences.
- Use analogies to explain complex topics.
- Cite credible sources with links when available.
- Summarize the key takeaways at the end of each response.
- If you made a mistake in an earlier answer, acknowledge and correct it.
- End each response with a few follow-up questions I could ask next.
