Very interesting research! I might add that prompt format does not only shape the AI’s output, it also shapes the user’s thinking.

Structured prompting helps the user think about the problem and structure their thoughts (and needs)… to select and include the most relevant data (role, context, format, etc.).

Yeah. I agree. I think structure is even more important on the human side of things. That's enough value in and of itself.

This was fascinating. Thanks for reporting back on that experiment.
