Day 19: Show AI the screenshot before you explain the problem.

from AI Once a Day · host Ivy at AI Once a Day

Hey, Ivy here. Show AI the screenshot before you explain the problem. If a tool is acting strange, do not start with a long explanation. Start with the screenshot. That gives the model the interface, the labels, the warning text, and the blocked step all at once. Then ask: What looks wrong, what should I check first, and what step should I try next? If you want better help, mark the exact area you care about and add one sentence about what you expected to happen. For example: I expected this import to finish. Focus on the warning banner and the disabled button. Use screenshots to ground the conversation. Then use text to narrow the task. Less guessing. Faster fixes. Tomorrow, I will show you how to make AI ask 3 questions before it answers.
