Ultimate Summary Prompt
PROMPT 1:
Preserve all original ideas while making the content shorter and clearer. Organize the summary by chapters, themes, or bullet points. Match the tone of the original (e.g., raw, formal, motivational, etc.). Revise it to get closer to 100% fidelity by restoring more quotes, names, and subtle details. Show me full summary
[Insert text you want to summarize HERE]
PROMPT 2:
Compare this full summary to original text, does this leave anything out? what is the percentage?
[Insert text you want to summarize HERE]
PROMPT 3:
Revise it to get to 100% fidelity. Show me full summary.
[Or it might simply ask you if you want to revise it, just simply reply "Yes, show me full summary."]
(Now the prompt has seen the original, seen its first draft, compared the two, and now it's rebuilding the summary better using feedback).
By this point you can compare this summary with your original text again using prompt 2, you'll see the results.
Now you have a prompt that's preserving everything in a refined, accessible, and organized form.
