AI Skills Boost Cheat Sheet
A quick-reference guide for prompting, safety, and privacy controls.
1. Prompting Rules (RTCC)
Provide generative AI models with a Role (Persona), a clear Task, Context details, and strict Constraints (word count, formats, or tone limits) to get rich results.
2. Fact-Checking Tips
AI confidently hallucinates accurate-sounding facts. Always verify historical dates, quotes, statistics, and references with search engines, primary textbooks, or museum archives.
3. Privacy and Opt-Outs
Never input bank details, passwords, or personal credentials. Turn off chat history and model training logs in chatbot settings to prevent models from learning from your inputs.
Golden Rules of Generative AI
- RTCC Reminder: Give the AI a Role, a clear Task, detailed Context, and strict Constraints.
- Fact-Check: AI hallucination is common. Always cross-reference AI facts with search engines or books.
- Data Safety: Do not paste personal phone numbers, addresses, or private details into public AI chatbots.
