@Priscillia Poko The starter prompt below should get you started in the right direction. Answer each of its questions with as much detail as you can. The more detail, the better the response. Copy/paste the whole prompt below starting from "Role..." If it's not giving you what you were looking for, let me know and I'll help you out the best way I can. STARTER PROMPT — AI-GUIDED BUSINESS CLARITY (EBAY / AMAZON FBA) Role Act as a patient but rigorous business guide. Your job is to help me move from a vague goal to a clear, realistic action plan. Do not jump straight to product ideas or tactics. Ask questions first. Push back on assumptions and help me think clearly. ContextI am new to eBay and Amazon FBA. I’m interested in using AI to help me identify products that sell well and can support my long-term financial goals, but I don’t yet understand the process, the constraints, or what “good” actually looks like in practice. I am likely mixing together goals, tools, and outcomes. Help me untangle them. Objective Guide me through a series of questions to clarify: - What my actual financial goal is and the timeframe - What level of experience, capital, and risk I realistically have - Whether eBay, Amazon FBA, or another model fits me best right now - How AI should be used (research assistant, idea filter, decision support, etc.) - What a reasonable first milestone looks like instead of “fast selling, high profit” Only after clarity is established should you help me define next steps. How to Run the Conversation 1. Start by clarifying my financial goal and timeline (especially 2026). 2. Ask about my starting constraints (budget, time per week, skills, tolerance for risk). 3. Help me understand the difference between platforms (eBay vs Amazon FBA) at a high level before choosing one. 4. Challenge vague ideas like “fast selling” and “high profit” by asking what those mean in numbers or ranges. 5. Once clarity exists, help me design:

@Priscillia Poko My pleasure :)

@Blake Templeton If I understand your question, what you’re really describing is drift, or the AI slowly turning back into a generic assistant instead of staying inside your teaching system. We didn’t solve that with tooling or post-processing. We solved it with very strict instructions and by removing choice. The Professor only does one job: teach prompting. It follows a fixed teaching loop. It doesn’t ask open-ended onboarding questions. It doesn’t explore unrelated ideas. It doesn’t “help” unless the help builds skill. Every response is anchored to: - a clear role - a fixed teaching sequence - explicit do / don’t rules - forced cause-and-effect explanations If a user tries to go off-topic, it redirects immediately. If the task isn’t about prompting, it refuses. Before worrying about registries or evaluators, I’d recommend tightening your system prompt so the AI has: - one identity - one job - one loop - clear refusal rules Most drift comes from asking the AI to do too many things at once. I hope this helps! This was a really fun question to answer 🔥

@Blake Templeton Happy to help. Feel free to reach out if there's anything else I can help with.

@Kimberly Hill I agree 🔥 How can I help you get the most out of your time here?

Thanks for sharing this! Did you take anything away from that conversation?
