Prompt text
I have technical analysis results that I need to explain to a non-technical business audience. Help me translate them into plain language without losing the key insights.

Technical findings: {{technical_findings}}
Audience: {{audience}} (their background: {{audience_background}})

1. Jargon replacement guide:
   For each technical term in my findings, provide the plain English replacement:
   - 'Statistically significant' → 'We can be confident this difference is real, not just random'
   - 'Correlation of 0.73' → 'When X goes up, Y tends to go up about 73% of the time'
   - 'Regression model' → 'A mathematical formula that calculates the predicted value based on other factors'
   - 'Confidence interval' → 'The range within which the true answer almost certainly falls'
   - 'Null hypothesis rejected' → 'The data shows a clear difference — it is not just chance'
   Apply this principle to every technical term in my specific findings.

2. Translate each finding:
   For each technical finding, write:
   - The plain English version (1–2 sentences, no jargon)
   - A concrete analogy or example that makes it tangible
   - The business implication in one sentence

3. What to leave out:
   - Methodological details your audience does not need to evaluate the conclusion
   - Intermediate results that do not change the recommendation
   - Caveats that are technically important but would not change the action taken
   (note separately: caveats that ARE important enough to share, and how to phrase them without undermining your findings)

4. The 'can they repeat it?' test:
   After writing the simplified version, check: could your audience repeat the key finding accurately in a conversation with their own colleagues?
   If no: simplify further. If yes: you are done.

Return: the translated findings, the jargon glossary, and a 3-bullet 'take-away' summary for the audience.

When to use this prompt

Use case 01

Use it when you want to begin insight communication work without writing the first draft from scratch.

Use case 02

Use it when you want a more consistent structure for AI output across projects or datasets.

Use case 03

Use it when you want prompt-driven work to turn into a reusable notebook or repeatable workflow later.

Use case 04

Use it when you want a clear next step into adjacent prompts in Insight Communication or the wider Citizen Data Scientist library.

What the AI should return

The AI should return a structured result that covers the main requested outputs, such as Jargon replacement guide:, 'Statistically significant' → 'We can be confident this difference is real, not just random', 'Correlation of 0.73' → 'When X goes up, Y tends to go up about 73% of the time'. The final answer should stay clear, actionable, and easy to review inside a insight communication workflow for citizen data scientist work.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Simplify Technical Findings prompt do?+

It gives you a structured insight communication starting point for citizen data scientist work and helps you move faster without starting from a blank page.

Who is this prompt for?+

It is designed for citizen data scientist workflows and marked as intermediate, so it works well as a guided starting point for that level of experience.

What type of prompt is this?+

Simplify Technical Findings is a single prompt. You can copy it as-is, adapt it, or use it as one step inside a larger workflow.

Can I use this outside MLJAR Studio?+

Yes. The prompt text works in other AI tools too, but MLJAR Studio is the best fit when you want local execution, visible Python code, and reusable notebooks.

What should I open next?+

Natural next steps from here are Chart Caption Writer, Data Story Builder, Findings to Executive Summary.
