Are your A.I. chatbot responses way too long?

Do they look something like this??

Not to worry.

You can simply modify your base system prompt to include a statement like&#x20;

```
Limit each response to be only one sentence long

Stay short & concise when giving a response
```

Giving an example of a "short" response can also help ensure the AI agent gives simpler response.

After updating your Base System Prompt, click ‘Re-train chatbot’ and voila you’ll know have one sentence responses that look like this.

Another Option:

```
Your responses will be sent via SMS, so limit each of your responses to be only 1 sentence long.
Make sure each of your responses only contains text, no markdown or html.
```
