Great prompts are crucial when using AI technology as they guide the model to generate relevant and accurate responses. Clear and well-defined prompts can lead to more precise and insightful outputs, enhancing the overall effectiveness of AI applications.

Molly McHugh-Johnson has published an article featuring five tips for writing great prompts for Gemini in the Workspace side panel.

She says, “Since launching last month, Gemini in the Workspace side panel has been making many people’s lives easier. Where once you had to jump from Gmail to Docs to grab information for a message, you can now get what you need right next to your draft with a simple prompt. Looking for a quick breakdown of key facts from multiple files in Drive? Gemini in the Workspace side panel can help with that, too — no new tabs needed.

1. Take cues from the suggestions

When you open Gemini in the side panel of your Workspace apps, you’ll see product-specific suggestions: In Gmail, the side panel shows you ideas like “find attachments in my emails;” in Docs, you might see “rephrase part of this document;” or in Sheets, Gemini may suggest “teach me how to use conditional formatting.”
