Tips & Tricks

Getting Better Responses

Be Specific

Instead of "Help with math," try "Explain how to solve quadratic equations"
Provide context: "I'm a beginner programmer learning Python"
Specify the format you want: "Give me a step-by-step list"

Use Follow-up Questions

Ask for clarification: "Can you explain that part about..."
Request examples: "Can you give me some examples?"
Dig deeper: "What are the advanced concepts I should learn next?"

Image Generation Tips

Writing Better Prompts

Be descriptive: "A majestic golden retriever sitting in a sunlit meadow with wildflowers"
Include style: "...in the style of a watercolor painting"
Specify mood: "...with a peaceful, serene atmosphere"
Add technical details: "...professional photography, high resolution"

Pro Tip

Start with a simple prompt and refine it based on the results. You can ask Lumigence to modify or improve generated images.

Document Analysis Best Practices

Preparing Your Documents

Ensure text is clear and readable (avoid heavily stylized fonts)
Keep file sizes under 20MB for best performance
Use high-quality scans for image-based PDFs
Organize content logically with clear headings

Asking Good Questions

"Summarize the main points of this document"
"What are the key findings in section 3?"
"Explain the methodology used in this research"
"What conclusions can be drawn from this data?"

Conversation Management

Using Context Effectively

Reference previous messages: "Building on what you said earlier..."
Use pronouns and references: "Can you expand on that?"
Create conversation threads for complex topics

When to Reset

Starting a completely new topic
If responses seem confused or off-topic
When switching between very different use cases
After long, complex conversations
