• Abstract

    The literacy level in Indonesia is relatively low. Therefore, there is a need for research aimed at increasing literacy in Indonesia. This research aims to explore the application of prompt writing techniques in the context of artificial intelligence (AI) to improve literacy. The writing prompt technique involves composing a short statement or question that stimulates critical thinking, analysis, and reflection on a topic. In the context of AI, this technique can be applied to develop interactive tools that help improve reading and writing comprehension in students and teachers. Students who make use of this theory development are involved in the study. The student tried out AI writing. Two groups were created out of them. Five students made up Group 1, which was given instructions on how to use prompt writing techniques. Five students made up group 2 (control), which did not get any lessons on how to use prompt writing techniques. The results showed that group 2 did not make any variations on the tasks given. The five students only copied the prompts provided in the assignment without editing them first. This caused the five students to produce the same output. This is what should not happen because it increases the plagiarism value of the writing. Group 1, on the other hand, made changes to the assignment's prompt. Despite the initial prompt being the same for all five pupils, the changes made by the students led to varied output from each. The conclusion that can be derived from this experiment is that training in using artificial intelligence is necessary, as shown in group 2, in which this technological advancement is not being utilized to its full potential.
