Final exam: Build simple AI tools without code

1. A coworker writes the instruction “Help with emails.” What is the biggest weakness?

It does not name the email program you will paste intoIt lacks a role, audience, rules, format and fallbackIt is polite but does not give the helper a name or titleIt forgets to say how many emails the tool may send a day

2. Your helper keeps writing long, cheerful answers when you want short, calm ones. What is the best fix?

Say 'be shorter and calmer' once at the very top of the chatSwitch to a different tool each time the length is wrongAdd rules like a sentence limit and a calm tone, plus an exampleAsk the same question again until a short answer happens to appear

3. You turn a prompt into a template with twelve blanks. Coworkers leave several empty. What should you do?

Cut to the few inputs that matter and build the rest into the textAdd a note asking coworkers to fill in every blank carefullyMake each blank much longer so people notice itAdd more blanks so each detail has its own place to go

4. A form collects a customer’s order number, problem type and request. Which addition best protects quality?

Send the AI draft directly, since the form is already clearMake the form longer so the AI has more detail to useAdd a person who reviews each draft before it is sentRemove the problem type question to keep the form short

5. An automation will add rows to one tracking sheet. Which permission is appropriate?

Full edit access to every file in the shared folderAccess to your whole drive so it can find the sheetAccess to that one sheet onlyYour account password so it can sign in by itself

6. Your automation runs for the first week and the service bill is higher than you expected. What should you check first?

Whether the instructions are written in a polite enough tone for every userHow often it runs, and whether it loops or fires on every small eventWhether the sheet has too many columns for the planWhether the form's title is clear to the people filling it in

7. Which test input best checks whether your tool respects its rules?

A polite hello followed by a standard question from the formThe same sample you used while writing the instructionsTen typical requests in a row, all similar to your first exampleA request that pushes it to break a rule, like promising a refund

8. A tool that worked well last month now gives different answers, though your instructions did not change. What is a likely explanation and response?

Your coworkers are typing requests in the wrong wayThe tool is wearing out and should be deleted and replacedThe product or model may have changed, so rerun your testsThe tool remembers your older chats and is now confused by them

9. A clinic worker wants to build a helper that summarizes patient notes using a free consumer tool. What is the right approach?

Use only a tool your employer approved for that dataUse the free tool because a summary is not the original noteAsk the AI tool itself whether it is allowed to take notesUse the free tool but remove the first names from each note

10. You are choosing a first project. Which is the best match?

A weekly summary of your own meeting notes with a quick human readA tool that emails customers automatically with no reviewA system that stores everyone's passwords for the teamA helper that decides which applicants get a small loan
