Negative example

A sample of what you do NOT want, included so the AI can see and avoid that pattern.

Say it to an AI

Write an 80-word listing for our handmade stoneware mug (350 ml, speckled oat glaze, dishwasher-safe). Plain, concrete and calm. Not like this: “Elevate your morning ritual with this stunning, must-have mug!” No hype words, no exclamation marks, no emoji.

How an expert would ask for the stronger version of “Handmade mug listing”.

A ceramics studio owner asks an AI for a shop listing that doesn't sound like every other product page.

Study A · the weaker one
Study B · the stronger one

Why: B quotes “Elevate your morning ritual with this stunning, must-have mug!” as the thing to avoid; A's reply avoids those exact words but keeps the same moves, like 'perfect for slow mornings'.
