Made the part the AI found interesting the focus for readers

Writing

Situation: Writing a report on a community event for the people who took part, and deciding what to put first.
What the AI did: It decided the preparation details were the interesting part and made them the focus. What readers wanted, how the day went and what comes next, was buried at the end, and the report got long and hard to get through.
How to ask next time (the operator's example): "First write one line on who the readers are and what they should take away. Cut, or move to the end, anything that doesn't serve that."
One question to ask: Who are the readers, and what should they take away?
Check it yourself: Read only the first paragraph and ask whether a participant would learn what they came for: how the day went, when the next one is. If not, move that part up.
