I used to think getting better results from Claude meant writing better prompts. Give it more context, add more constraints, and explain exactly what I wanted, and I would get a better answer. That's true. But a better answer isn't always a more interesting one. I've found that Claude becomes much more interesting when it gives me questions to think about. Answering it, disagreeing with it, and even challenging it can open unexpected threads. Sometimes the best idea appears several turns after the prompt I started with.
