    "# Part 12.5: Content Creation and Structured Prompt Patterns\n",
    "\n",
    "In this part, we'll cover how to generate content and structure responses using specific formats or instructions to tailor outputs within the life insurance context. By mastering these patterns, you can guide Generative AI to produce content that meets your exact needs—whether it's drafting policy summaries, creating client communications, or extracting specific data.\n",
    "\n",
    "### Template Pattern\n",
    "The Template Pattern involves providing a predefined structure or format that the AI should follow when generating its response. This is particularly useful when you need outputs in a specific layout or style.\n",
    "\n",
    "Example Prompt:\n",
    "\n",
    "```\n",
    "Using the following template, create a life insurance policy summary:\n",

    "Key Benefits:\n",
    "Exclusions:\n",
    "Additional Riders:\n",
    "```\n",
    "\n",
    "### Meta Language Pattern\n",
    "The Meta Language Pattern uses specific placeholders or instructions within the prompt to guide the AI's response, allowing for dynamic content generation.\n",
    "\n",
    "Example Prompt:\n",
    "\n",
    "```\n",
    "Draft a personalized email to [Client Name], informing them about the benefits of upgrading their current life insurance policy to include [New Feature/Rider].\n",
    "```\n",
    "\n",
    "### Recipe Pattern\n",
    "The Recipe Pattern provides step-by-step instructions or procedures, guiding the AI to produce content that follows a logical sequence.\n",
    "\n",
    "Example Prompt:\n",
    "\n",
    "```\n",
    "Provide a step-by-step guide on how to file a life insurance claim, including all necessary documentation and timelines.\n",
    "```\n",
    "\n",
    "### Alternative Approaches Pattern\n",
    "The Alternative Approaches Pattern asks the AI to present multiple solutions or perspectives on a given topic, allowing for a broader understanding.\n",
    "\n",
    "Example Prompt:\n",
    "\n",
    "```\n",
    "Describe three different strategies for a young family to maximize their life insurance coverage while staying within a limited budget.\n",
    "```\n",
    "\n",
    "### Outline Expansion Pattern\n",
    "The Outline Expansion Pattern involves giving the AI an outline or set of bullet points and asking it to expand them into a detailed narrative.\n",

    "Comparison with whole life insurance\n",
    "How to choose the right term length\n",
    "```\n",
    "\n",
    "### Menu Actions Pattern\n",
    "The Menu Actions Pattern directs the AI to provide options or action items in response to a scenario, much like choosing from a menu.\n",
    "\n",
    "Example Prompt:\n",
    "\n",
    "```\n",
    "List the available policy options for a 35-year-old non-smoker seeking life insurance coverage of $500,000, including term lengths and premium estimates.\n",
    "```\n",
    "\n",
    "### Tail Generation Pattern\n",
    "The Tail Generation Pattern instructs the AI to complete a partially written piece of content, ensuring consistency and continuity.\n",
    "\n",
    "Example Prompt:\n",
    "\n",
    "```\n",
    "Finish the following letter to a client regarding their policy renewal:\n",
    "\n",
    "'Dear [Client Name],\n",
    "\n",
    "We wanted to remind you that your life insurance policy is up for renewal on [Date]. Continuing your coverage is important because...'\n",
    "```\n",
    "\n",
    "### Completion Prompts\n",
    "Completion Prompts provide the beginning of a sentence or paragraph and ask the AI to finish it, often used to inspire creativity or generate ideas.\n",
