Transforming formats: table, bullets, narrative
Day 14 of 30 · 30 Days of AI
Convert content across formats to fit the audience
Learning goal
- Convert one piece of content into table, bullets, and short narrative.
- Preserve facts across formats.
Why it matters
- Different audiences prefer different formats.
- Format shifts reveal missing or inconsistent data.
Explanation
- Prompt: “Turn this into a 3-column table (item/detail/action).”
- Then: “Convert to 5 bullets” and “Convert to 120-word narrative.”
- Check that numbers/claims stay consistent.
Examples
- Good: Table with clear columns; bullets concise; narrative keeps facts.
- Poor: Format changes but loses data.
