Specialized prompt forces AI to extract structured action items from meeting notes

02

Practical Tip

1. Copy your raw meeting notes and paste them into an AI chat interface.
2. Apply a prompt instructing the AI to format action items strictly as: OWNER | ACTION | DUE | SOURCE LINE.
3. Enforce rules that require the AI to write 'UNASSIGNED' if no owner is named, and 'NO DATE' if no deadline cue is present, quoting the exact source line for verification.
