The article explains how to understand generative AI features by focusing on prompt layers rather than product names. It suggests that most GenAI features are essentially different methods of providing instructions or context to the AI model. The core concept is to identify where text is placed before the AI responds, differentiating between the system prompt (the AI's operating manual) and the user prompt (the specific request and context for a given task). Features like 'Projects' and 'Cowork' are presented as ways to manage reusable context and delegate tasks, respectively, all within this prompt-centric framework. AI
