Observation
AI becomes more useful when it has relevant information, but that doesn't mean every piece of information belongs in a prompt.
From the Field
When using AI for work, I consciously separate the information the model needs from information it doesn't need. Names, confidential business information, employee details or sensitive data shouldn't be included simply because adding them would make the task easier.
Why This Matters
Good AI use includes understanding the boundaries of the tool you're using and the information you're working with. Convenience doesn't override privacy, security or organisational policy.
Field Takeaway
Before you improve the prompt, check what you're putting into it.
