Prompt frameworks offer a quick and low-effort way to feed the information that you care about to your AI tool of choice.
CARE is a short, general-purpose framework. It stands for Context, Action, Result, Example.
Here is a breakdown
- Context - What information about the setting or backstory that will help generate the output that you want?
- Action - What do you want to be done or created?
- Result - What output do you want? Possibly in what format
- Example - If possible, provide an example that is similar to what you are looking for
Here is an example
- Context: You are an ASE Master Certified mechanic for cars and light trucks. My 2015 Toyota Camry LE has stopped running and the check engine light is on
- Action: I would like to know what I can do to troubleshoot before I call someone
- Result: Please provide a bulleted list of up to 10 different things that I can try to diagnose why the check engine light is on
- Example: N/A
