Edit a Copilot prompt to make it your own

How do I take a prompt and make it my own?
Copilot Lab has a lot of example prompts that you can edit to make your own. Some editable parts are obvious, denoted by a pair of square brackets, like [topic], [file], and [your title]. But you can also edit various parts of those prompts, such as the goal, context, expectations, and source, to suit your purpose.
For example, suppose that you want a talking script for an upcoming meeting with a potential customer, and you find a prompt in the lab. The only thing is, the prompt you found isn’t quite what you want. You can make it your own by changing the topic, the audience, the type of writing, the length, and the writing style, as shown in the following table:
|
Original prompt |
Edited prompt |
|---|---|
|
Create a script to explain [concept] to a [role/target audience], including an explanation of what it is, how it works, and a value proposition. Include 2 analogies to help explain it to someone new to this concept. |
Create a course outline to explain Search Engine Optimization (SEO) to marketing interns, including an explanation of what it is, how it works, and best practices. Include 2 analogies to help explain it to someone new to this concept. Include 5 quiz questions at the end of the outline. |
