Give Clear Background Information

When using AI platforms to work with AAMC resources, providing context is crucial but requires careful balance. AI project features (like Claude Projects or NotebookLM) let you upload documents once and access them across conversations, saving time and maintaining consistency. Share enough program information for insights while protecting sensitive data. Here's how contextual information enhances your AI interactions:

  1. Better understanding. Context allows AI to tailor explanations to your specific situation.
  2. Finding connections. Background information helps AI make more relevant connections.
  3. Planning help. Detailed context enables more practical and applicable implementation plans.
