What do I do when the answer just confuses me?
You will learn how to fix your question when the answer makes no sense.
A confusing answer is not your fault. It often means the question needs a tweak.
Tell ChatGPT it confused you. Say which part lost you.
Then ask it to try again in a clearer way. It will gladly redo it.
Try this
- Read the confusing answer once more.
- Find the part that lost you.
- Tell ChatGPT that part confused you.
- Ask it to explain that part again, more simply.
- Read the new, clearer answer.
