This task connects to Lesson 7's prompt exercise — same skill (tone + constraints), Example Ink branding.
Step A — Fast/default model (all platforms)
New chat on each app. Use the default / fast model (not thinking) if you can control it.
The prompt (copy exactly)
You are the owner of fictional "Example Ink" in Leeds. Write a short email to a customer 2 weeks late paying for tattoo work. Tone: firm but polite, not threatening. Under 120 words. Clear next step to pay. No invented account numbers or legal threats. Fictional scenario only.
Log notes per platform. Would you send this email (with a quick human edit)?
Step B — Optional thinking retry (one platform)
Pick one app where Thinking / deeper mode is available on your tier. New chat. Same prompt. Note if the reply is worth the extra wait.
If thinking isn't on your tier, write thinking N/A — no penalty.
Winner log
Fill Task 3 row: include fast vs thinking note in the column if you tried both.
You should see: under ~120 words, firm-but-polite tone, clear payment next step — no fake bank details.
Fast models sometimes come across as passive-aggressive on money emails. Switching to Thinking once saved me from sending something that read like a threat. Even now, I read a real one out loud before I'd dream of hitting send.
