# Parenting AI Framework

## Parenting AI Framework

**Speaker:** [[entity-lior-weinstein|Lior Weinstein]] 
**Purpose:** Training an AI clone or agent to act and sound like you, treating it more like an employee than a software program.

### Step 1: Context
Clearly define:
- **Who you are** — your background, expertise, personality
- **What your business is** — industry, audience, value proposition
- **What you care about** — values, priorities, non-negotiables

The AI is a [[concept-ai-as-guesser|predictive guesser]]. The richer your context, the better its guesses.

### Step 2: Examples
Provide concrete examples of your past work:
- Writing samples (emails, blog posts, social media)
- Decision-making logs or case studies
- Recorded conversations or meeting transcripts

This is the foundation for [[action-tone-mirror|creating a Tone Mirror prompt]].

### Step 3: Feedback
Review the AI's output and provide **specific corrections**:
- "This sounds too formal — I use contractions and shorter sentences"
- "You missed the empathy in the opening — lead with the customer's pain"
- "Good structure, but I would never use the word 'utilize'"

This iterative feedback loop is what transforms a generic AI into [[concept-ai-clone-first-hire|your first hire]].

> **Enrichment note:** Empirically validated by prompt engineering research. Chain-of-thought prompting, few-shot examples, and feedback loops yield **20–50% quality improvements** on standard benchmarks.
