INDEX RAAF 1912-39   

Guides were produced with AI support. I supplied the title and key points and configured a specialist GPT to structure the draft. I then revised it through further instructions. The ideas are mine; AI was used as an assistant, not an author.

Config used can be found here: https://www.jb-gpt-prompts.com/jb-config-military-history

Use the core points as your prompt. Paste them into your chosen AI, ask it to expand into as many structured key points as needed, and use follow-up questions to deepen or refine analysis. The framework keeps the response focused and within defined scope while allowing expansion from brief notes to a 5000 word paper.. Recommended further reading is drawn from a selected bibliography (https://www.ai-tutor-military-history.com/bibliography-jbgpt-ai). The result is a post that may be useful for self-directed study and allows the framing of further questions on the topic.
