Get More from AI: Options, Rankings, Lists, and Comparisons

AI is amazing at coming up with names — for pets, characters, businesses, anything.

'Give me 10 names for my new puppy. He is a tiny dachshund with a brave personality.' AI gives 10 ideas.

Three good name prompts

• 'Names for a girl dragon.'
• 'Names for a robot in a story.'
• 'Names for my YouTube channel.'

The big idea: AI is a tireless name-generator. Use it the next time you need to name anything.

When you have to choose between things, AI can help you compare them.

'Compare two breeds of dog: golden retriever vs labrador. Which is better for a small apartment?' AI gives a real comparison.

Three things AI compares well

• Features and price
• Pros and cons
• Best for different situations

The big idea: AI is a great comparison tool. Use it for tough choices.

AI can help you plan a schedule, time things, or figure out how long something will take.

'I have 30 minutes. What can I do?' or 'How long does it take to get to school?' AI helps with both.

Three good time prompts

• 'Plan my afternoon if I have 2 hours.'
• 'How many days until summer break?'
• 'How long should I study for a spelling test?'

The big idea: AI is a good time helper — for both planning and counting.

AI does not give the exact same answer each time. So if you want options, ask the same question 3 times and pick the best answer (or combine the best parts).

Some examples

• Need a poem? Ask 3 times. Pick your favorite.
• Need an essay opener? Ask 3 times. Mix the best lines.
• Need a name? Ask 3 different ways. Pick winner.
• Need a story idea? Get 3 batches. Pick the best from each.

Try it!

Ask AI the same question 3 times. Compare answers. Notice which is best — and why.

Sometimes one answer is not enough. You can ask AI to give you three or four ideas and then pick your favorite. This helps you compare and choose.

Some examples

• Give me 3 funny names for my pet hamster.
• List 4 snacks I could pack for a hike.
• Show me 3 ways to start my story.
• Give me 5 ideas for a science fair project.

Think of something you have to choose. Ask AI for 3 options. Then circle the one you like best.

Here's why "Ask AI for Three Options" matters: The words you type to an AI are called a prompt. Better words = better answers! When you can't decide, ask AI for choices instead of one answer — and knowing how to apply this gives you a concrete advantage.

• Learn what "options" means and why it's important
• Learn what "choice" means and why it's important
• Learn what "compare" means and why it's important

1. 1Ask AI to explain your favourite animal like you're five
2. 2Ask AI to write a haiku about your school day
3. 3Ask AI for three ideas for a fun weekend activity

When you have to decide something, AI is great at listing the good and bad sides. Just say 'give me 3 pros and 3 cons' and watch AI lay it all out for you.

Some examples

• 'Pros and cons of having a hamster as a pet.'
• 'Good and bad things about waking up early on weekends.'
• 'Reasons to learn piano vs reasons to skip it.'
• 'Pros and cons of doing homework right after school.'

Try it!

Pick a small choice you have today. Ask AI for 3 pros and 3 cons. Decide!

Did you know 'compare' is a great prompt word? Ask AI to compare two things side by side and you learn about both at once. Way faster than asking twice.

Some examples

• 'Compare cats and dogs.'
• 'Compare soccer and basketball.'
• 'Compare the sun and the moon.'
• 'Compare cake and pie — be fair to both!'

Try it!

Ask AI to compare two of your favorite things. Did you learn something new?

Here's why "Ask AI to Compare Two Things" matters: The words you type to an AI are called a prompt. Better words = better answers! 'Compare X and Y' is a magic prompt that helps you understand both fast — and knowing how to apply this gives you a concrete advantage.

• Learn what "compare" means and why it's important
• Learn what "side-by-side" means and why it's important
• Learn what "explain" means and why it's important

• 'Give me three names for my pet hamster.'

• 'Suggest three games we could play at recess.'
• Pick the one you like best — or mix them!
