Stop blaming AI for terrible results.
Steal these 8 prompt frameworks instead ↓
Prompting basic questions will get you basic answers.
That’s not AI failing, it’s a skill gap.
AI doesn’t need “better questions.”
It needs clearer instructions.
When I started treating prompting as an actual skill, a few things improved quickly:
- My workflows became more structured
- Repetitive tasks were easier to automate
- I spent more time on work that actually moves things forward
These are the 8 prompt frameworks I use most:
1). R-T-F
Role: Specify the role you want the AI to assume.
Task: Define the task you want the AI to perform.
Format: Indicate the format in which you want the output.
2). S-O-L-V-E
Situation: Define the context or situation.
Objective: Specify the goals.
Limits: Define any limitations or constraints.
Vision: Outline the vision or goal.
Ex*****on: Plan the steps for ex*****on.
3). T-A-G
Task: Define the task at hand.
Action: State the action needed.
Goal: Clarify the goal to be achieved.
4). R-A-C-E
Role: Specify the character you want the AI to play.
Action: State the basic instruction or the job you need to be done.
Context: Provide the background information the AI will need.
Expectation: Describe the outcome you need.
5). D-R-E-A-M
Define: Define the problem or context.
Research: State the research needed.
Execute: How to execute the plan.
Analyse: How to analyse the results.
Measure: Define how to measure the outcomes.
6). P-A-C-T
Problem: Define the problem.
Approach: Describe the approach.
Checks: Write about potential compromises.
Test: Define the test or measurement.
7). C-A-R-E
Context: Give the context.
Action: Describe the action needed.
Result: Clarify the expected result.
Example: Provide an example for clarity.
8). R-I-S-E
Role: Specify the role.
Input: Describe the input needed.
Steps: Could you ask for steps to follow?
Expectation: Describe the expectation.
Same tools.
Same models.
Better output, purely from better prompting.
If you want to get more out of AI without adding new tools, this is a good place to start.
I share practical AI frameworks like this every week in my newsletter, always usable the same day.
