Get Better AI Outputs with This Multiple Choice Technique
beginnerThe Rundown
Who This Is Useful For
- Marketers and designers who generate lots of images
- People who want to prompt better
- Anyone frustrated with lengthy AI chats that seem to go in circles
What You Will Build
You’ll build a reusable multiple-choice interview prompt structure that helps an AI gather useful context before producing outputs. In the example workflow, you’ll use it to generate four distinct logo concepts.
- A goal, task, and next-steps prompt structure
- A multiple-choice AI interview for gathering context
- Four distinct concept directions generated from the interview answers
- A token-saving grid of logo concept options
What You Need
- Access to any chat-based AI or AI image generator
- For this tutorial specifically: Nano Banana Pro in AI Studio and Google’s NotebookLM
Going Further
- For more complex workflows like email copy ideas or blog post outlines, copy and paste each concept into a fresh chat and refine it there.
- If the interview method gives you strong results, export and reuse the context by asking the AI to extract the context as system instructions in markdown.
