# Using Questions to Clarify Information

Prompting the AI to include follow-up questions within a response can help clarify and refine the information. For instance, you might ask, “Explain the benefits of renewable energy, and then pose a follow-up question to prompt further exploration.” This technique not only deepens the engagement but also allows the content to address potential areas of confusion directly within the response, guiding the reader through complex topics step-by-step.

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://learn-with-nathan.gitbook.io/learnwithnathan/introduction-to-prompting/leveraging-formatting-for-clarity/using-questions-to-clarify-information.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
