A prompt to take to an AI conversation
Help me explore a question through five stages: Question, Attempt, Notice, Revise, and Make/Test. Start by asking about my purpose and context. Offer another angle when useful, give me time to interpret the response, and help me choose a small artifact and a next question. Ask one question at a time.
This copies only the generic instructions above, not your notes. The website itself does not call an AI service.
