About this course

7 topics

Prompts for diplomats, from cables to visas

Diplomatic work asks you to write clearly, read carefully, and speak with care. This course turns those daily tasks into prompt lessons you can use in ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini.

You will draft reports, analyze political developments, prepare negotiation briefs, shape talking points, plan outreach, coordinate with local officials, prepare conference materials, and explain visa rules. Each lesson is short and practical.

  1. The lessons
    1. Draft Diplomatic Reports: Use AI to turn raw notes, cables, and news into clear diplomatic reports and summaries.
    2. Analyze Political Developments: Use AI to compare sources, explain policy shifts, and map key actors in a political situation.
    3. Prepare Negotiation Briefs: Use AI to build negotiation briefs, anticipate counterarguments, and review past agreement language.
    4. Draft Talking Points: Use AI to create clear talking points, adapt messages for different audiences, and prepare for sensitive questions.
    5. Build Foreign Relationships: Use AI to plan outreach, draft introductions, and learn cultural context before relationship-building meetings.
    6. Coordinate Local Officials: Use AI to draft coordination requests, explain regulations, and plan joint activities with local authorities.
    7. Prepare Conference Materials: Use AI to draft speeches, summarize agendas, and prepare bilateral meeting notes for international conferences.
    8. Issue Visas And Permits: Use AI to explain visa rules, draft decision letters, and check application materials for consistency.
  2. What the course covers

    The course follows the work you already do. It starts with reports and political analysis, then moves to negotiations, talking points, relationships, local officials, conferences, and visas. Every lesson gives you a prompt you can change to fit your own situation.

  3. How the lessons connect

    The lessons build on each other. Drafting a report makes analysis easier. Analysis feeds a negotiation brief. A brief shapes talking points and outreach. By the end, you have a set of prompts for the whole cycle of diplomatic work.

  4. How to use prompts well

    Be specific. Give the AI the audience, the goal, the tone, and any limits. Ask for two versions, then choose and edit. Always check names, dates, laws, and quotes before you send anything.

  5. Who this course is for

    This course is for diplomats, embassy staff, and foreign service officers who write, analyze, and negotiate. It assumes no technical background. If you use email and documents, you can use these prompts.

  6. Safety and privacy at work

    Do not paste classified, sensitive, or personal information into public AI tools. Follow your ministry's rules and use approved systems. Treat AI output as a draft from a helpful colleague who does not know the full context.

  7. Your next step

    Pick one lesson and try it on a real task this week. Save the prompt that works. Then move to the next lesson. Small practice builds a habit you can trust.
