1、CONVERSATIONS WITH AIAUTHORSJim LeggAjay BangiaRich Timpone,Ph.D.How Generative AI and qualitative research will benefit each otherJune 2023IPSOS VIEWSEvery conversation starts with a single question,and sometimes when the question isnt good,it ends with a single,uninformative response.At Ipsos,we k
2、now that the questions we ask can greatly impact our understanding of the world and our actions.A poorly crafted question can lead to a distorted perception of reality and misguided actions.Conversely,a well-crafted question can lead to accurate,insightful,and just answers.This sentiment applies not
3、 only to human conversations,but also to prompts in the context of Generative AI.In the first paper in our series on Generative AI,we highlighted what we should expect during the coming period,as well as a few topline thoughts on limits,risks,and threats and how we should evaluate these tools using
4、the criteria of truth,beauty,and justice.1In this paper,Ipsos will take these points one step further and argue for the need to align with experts in the art of the question that can get the most out of AI solutions,including quality and accuracy,while defending data privacy.For qualitative research
5、ers,the promise of Generative AI,and its ability to write like a human,is compelling.That said,what AI claims to be fact can sometimes be far from the truth.2 Clearly a human is still needed for their thinking,judgement,and expertise in querying the AI,training models,and applying the output.However
6、,we believe that AI could be a powerful enabler to deliver faster,cheaper,and better research results.We see a host of immediate and obvious use-cases for Generative AI,ranging from automating simple tasks to transcription,translation,summarization,pattern detection,etc.More importantly,we see AI pl

8、 impactful insights.But this is only the beginning.Imagine constructing compelling visual metaphors that bring qualitative personas or verbatims to life in minutes.After which,consider leveraging tools like Ipsos.Digital to uncover insights and validate in hours,not days.Innovation will be improved,
9、cycle times will be dramatically reduced,and those that get to market first will be more likely to win.THE POWER OF INSIGHTFUL QUESTIONS Whether moderating groups,conducting in-depth interviews,or distilling hours or days of observation,asking questions is fundamental to qualitative research.In fact
10、,the superpower of great interviewers and moderators is not only planning effective discussion guides but knowing how to read people so that probes and follow-ups are effective for individuals who respond very differently to questions.This power of qualitative researchers carries over directly to Ge

18、tputs,it is critical to provide clear and specific prompts across the categories of instructions,questions,input data and examples.Do not sacrifice clarity at the altar of brevity.Longer prompts that provide additional context can often lead to more detailed and relevant outputs.One effective techni
19、que for crafting clear and specific prompts is to use delimiters to clearly indicate distinct parts of the input.Delimiters can take the form of any clear punctuation that separates specific pieces of text from the rest of the prompt,such as angle brackets,triple backticks or quotation marks.Using d
20、elimiters can also help prevent prompt injections,a situation where a users input conflicts with the desired instructions and leads the model astray.In the context of text-to-image models,such as Midjourney and Stable Diffusion,crafting clear and specific prompts is of utmost importance to ensure th

28、HOW TO CRAFT CLEAR AND SPECIFIC PROMPTS 45IPSOS VIEWS|CONVERSATIONS WITH AI CONVERSATIONS WITH AI|IPSOS VIEWSquality of the prompt plays a critical role in the quality of the insights generated.Just as there is some value in identifying the main themes in large corpuses of text or long interviews,th

30、hemes that go beyond the commonalities.Structured prompts help to detect patterns,as well as identify the anomalies.By inserting instances that are contrary to the common discourse,it will help to identify the uncommon truth,what Ipsos refers to as the Power of One,a story that may not be very loud

35、how to build on past prompts and the effect of order on different platforms translates directly to the AI world.It is unlikely that youd find a prompt that works and provides you exactly with what you were looking for the first time.However,by reviewing the errors,refining the parameters and iterati

52、in this paper is:work with experts who are upskilling to write a more insightful question and employ Iterative Sciences to uncover elegant,impactful,accurate and unbiased insights that ensure ethical use of data and effects from the results.The road is evolving and complex,and Ipsos stands ready to
