|---|---|---|---|
| Starting point | An open prompt | A blank document or canvas | The weekly update inputs that fit the job |
| Structure | Depends on how the request is phrased | Built section by section | Guided by the template before generation starts |
| Source material | Usually pasted into one conversation | Collected and arranged by hand | text, documents, images, links can stay connected to the task |
