Follow-ups
Follow-ups help with discovery:
- Sometimes you’re not sure what to ask after the first response. Suggested questions help uncover the next logical step – especially helpful for research, learning, or exploring unfamiliar topics.
- For people just starting out, they model good prompting – making it easier to keep the flow going without needing to know exactly what to ask next.
