Emotion prompting incorporates affective cues to shape the AI's output, enabling it to craft responses that evoke or respond to particular feelings, which is useful in creative writing, marketing, or customer service where emotional resonance can make the content more engaging and relatable, and the analogy is like directing an actor to deliver lines with joy or sorrow to convey the scene's mood, ensuring the audience feels the intended emotion.
Examples
User Prompt: Write a happy story about a dog. AI Response: The joyful dog played in the park, wagging its tail happily.
User Prompt: Respond sadly to a lost item. AI Response: I'm so sorry about your lost item; it must be heartbreaking.
User Prompt: Generate an angry rant about traffic. AI Response: This traffic is infuriating; why is it always so jammed!
