Most vague AI answers come from 3 prompt patterns. This shows which one you use.
How You Communicate With AI
Check a few boxes to reveal your default prompt pattern.

4. Your goal with AI is usually…
Your dominant prompt pattern will appear here — with a short explanation.
Why AI often gives vague answers
AI models usually respond vaguely not because the model is “bad”, but because prompts often lack clear goals, structure, or constraints. Over time, people develop default prompt habits. Those habits quietly shape the quality of the response — especially when the request is ambiguous or overloaded.
Common prompt patterns
- Vague — broad prompts without a concrete goal or constraints
- Overloaded — too much context that blurs what matters
- Directive — clear instructions focused on output (sometimes missing context)
- Iterative — refining step-by-step based on feedback
How this check works
The questions above identify your dominant pattern and show a typical example. The goal is clarity: you can see what you default to and why that default tends to produce vague or sharp responses.
