Ask LLM to return 20% solves 80%, when it gives too many options

When it gives too many options that feel low effort, ask it for the high impact options.

LLM

Sometimes I ask LLMs what to do in some situation, and it may suggest a ton of options.

This feels low effort on its’ part.

A solution that seems to work well for me, especially since in that moment I’m annoyed and in no mood to read, is to tell it to focus on the 20% that solves the 80%.
