Builds an automatic data-monitoring pipeline for tens of use cases and reports three concrete lessons: large generative models often hallucinate or bluntly ignore long, broad prompts so alerts misfire; splitting a long instruction into a sequence of short prompts and forcing take it slowly (step‑by‑step) fixes consistency — demonstrated by turning a bad poem into one that meets five constraints; giving positive reinforcement for desired outputs and using the API to play the roles (system, assistant, user) produces reliable alert signals and usable business playbooks.
