What is SPARK?
Five letters to remember what a strong prompt needs.
AI does exactly what you tell it — so the clearer your instruction, the better the answer. SPARK is BYTE.sg's way to remember the five things every strong prompt should cover. Put them together and you get one prompt that works first time.
S
Subject
What is this about?
For example: “The lift at my block has broken down three times this month.”
P
Purpose
Why, and for whom?
For example: “I want the Town Council to fix it quickly.”
A
Action
What exactly should the AI do?
For example: “Write a short complaint letter.”
R
Rhythm / Tone
How should it sound and look?
For example: “Polite but firm, under 150 words.”
K
Kick
What makes it better?
For example: “Ask for a reply by a date, and tell me if anything is missing.”
Read the five examples in a row and you have one complete prompt — that's the idea.
