AI Prompts for research and understanding
Browsing webpages for concise information is tricky. Articles can take forever to get to the point, and you usually have to wade through shameless self-promotion before you get there. Thankfully, AIs are great at compiling information and simplifying complex ideas. If you’re using AI Prompts in Opera, you might see suggested prompts like Explore this, Find related content, Compare to alternatives. And when you’re chatting with the AI directly, here’s a few suggestions that will help you get the rhythm of it. Try them out with difficult subjects, like the stock market, modern art, evolution, calculus, etc.
- Please explain [subject] to me in an easy-to-understand way.
- What are different perspectives on [subject]?

- What’s the latest news on [subject]?
- Can you explain that again in different words?

AI Prompts for finding specific information
Don’t want to spend time reading the whole article? Instead of scanning the page for the actual information you want, you can ask the AI service to summarize it, or to look for specific details. This is most-easily done using Opera Browser, since you get contextual prompts, like Shorten this, What’s the main point or Explain briefly, when you highlight text or click the AI Prompts button in the address bar. This saves you from copy/pasting text into the AI chat. However, when you’re typing in the AI chat, here’s some tried and true questions that work well. For these, you’ll want to paste the text in quotes, or add a link to the URL after your request.
- Can you explain this text in a couple sentences?
- What are the key points in this text?
- What’s the main point or thesis of this text?
- What’s the evidence or source that supports this text’s argument?

AI Prompts for generating unique content
Besides just explaining and finding content online, these AI generators are especially good at creating new content specific to your guidelines and intentions. In Opera Browser, just click the AI Prompts button in the address bar for prompts related to the exact page you’re on, like Compose a tweet for that Verge article, Compare to alternatives for an Amazon listing, or even Comment like Grumpy Cat.
