• Ensure that the summary includes relevant details and examples that support the main ideas, while avoiding any unnecessary information or repetition. 
• Rely strictly on the provided text, without including external information. 
• The length of the summary must be appropriate for the length and complexity of the original text. The length must allow to capture the main points and key details, without being overly long.

Tips & Disclaimer

Tip 1:  If you are using ChatGPT4, you can upload a word document or a PDF and change “summary of the text enclosed in %% below” in the prompt to “summary of the attached text.”  

Tip 2: If you want to summarize a longer document, break it down into multiple couple-of-page-long parts. The summaries of long documents tend to not be detailed enough.  

Tip 3: If the result is not up to your expectations, include an example in the prompt. Provide a part of the text and an example of how it should be summarized. Then, instruct the AI tool to summarize the reminder of the text in the same manner.   

Tip 4: You can change “Format each section in paragraph form [...]” to “Format each section into bullet points [...],” depending on your preference. 

Disclaimer 1: Make sure that the text you share with the AI tool is open source or that you have the author's permission to share it.
