Give AI an example to copy

Works with ChatGPT · Claude · Copilot

What you’ll be able to do

You can show AI a sample of what good looks like so it matches the pattern.

The problem

Describing what you want is harder than showing it.

What this skill does

Paste one strong example and ask AI to follow its style and structure.

When to use it

  • When you have an example of the output you want.
Juni, the One AI Skill guide

Juni’s tip

Show, do not just tell. One good example beats a paragraph of instructions.

The prompt

Main prompt
Here is an example of the style I want: [paste example]. Now write a new one about [topic] that matches its structure and tone.

Weak vs. better

✗ Weak prompt

Write something like this.

✓ Better prompt

Match the example below for a new piece about [topic]; copy its structure and tone, not its content. Example: [paste example]

Why this works

A concrete example teaches the pattern faster and more reliably than a description.

The move

Few-shot: give one example so the model copies the pattern.

Practice task

Try it now

Find a piece you like and ask AI to make one like it.

Self-check

  • The new piece matches the example structure
  • It is about your topic, not the example topic

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Giving no example and hoping AI guesses your style.
  • Letting AI copy the example content, not just its shape.
