Best PromptsExplain Any Topic to Any Audience
Get a genuinely clear explanation calibrated to your audience's knowledge, with analogies that hold up and honesty about what's simplified.
Explain [TOPIC] to [AUDIENCE, be specific: "a smart 12-year-old", "a CFO who's never written code", "my team of nurses"]. What they'll do with this understanding: [WHY THEY NEED IT: e.g. "decide whether to fund the project", "stop being afraid of the topic"] What they already know that we can build on: [THEIR ADJACENT KNOWLEDGE, e.g. "spreadsheets", "how hospitals work"] Structure the explanation: 1. **The one-sentence version**: the whole idea in one sentence a member of this audience would understand and could repeat. 2. **The core explanation**: build from what they already know using one extended analogy from THEIR world (not a generic one). Push the analogy as far as it honestly goes, then say explicitly where it breaks down: a broken analogy silently believed is worse than no analogy. 3. **The example**: one concrete, worked example relevant to what they'll do with this. 4. **What I simplified**: 2-3 things this explanation glosses over, each in one line, so they know the edges of their new understanding. 5. **The check**: 2 questions they should now be able to answer, with the answers below (so they can self-test). Rules: simplify without becoming wrong. If a simplification would mislead them for their stated purpose, keep the complexity and explain it instead. No unexplained jargon: every technical term either gets a plain-language gloss in the same sentence or gets cut. Match depth to their purpose, not to the topic's full depth.
