2 Regenerate a Response

Student Learning Objective

  • Regenerate a response to a single prompt for a new output

Many Generative AI programs allow you to regenerate a response based on the same prompt for a different result. This regenerated response will use the same information to rewrite the sentences in a different pattern, order, or tone. New information may or may not be included in the regenerated response.

Activity Steps

  • Enter an initial prompt into Generative AI.
  • Record the initial AI output to the prompt.
  • Use the “regenerate response” option to create a new response to the same prompt.
  • Record the second AI output from the same prompt.

Considerations

  • How this activity works will depend on the Generative AI program you use. Some programs will have a “regenerate” option, while others will require you to start a new chat and re-enter the prompt.
  • Entering the same prompt into Generative AI programs at different points in the term may result in greater variations in output (depending on the program). This is another variation of this activity.
  • Entering prompts that are more open ended and/or broad may result in greater variation in output.
  • Please refer to the cautions that apply to all activities using Generative AI.

Discussion Questions

  • Did the first and second outputs differ? If yes, how?
  • Was one response more correct or accurate than the other? How do you know?
  • Was response easier to understand?

SAMPLE PROMPTS

  • Is Halifax, Nova Scotia a good place to live?
  • What are the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and why are they important?
