What is a common cause of vague, off-target answers?
- AAn under-specified prompt — the model fills the gaps with its own assumptions
- BA model that is too large — bigger models tend to wander off the question
- CToo low a temperature — precise settings make answers drift from the topic
- DA missing internet link — without live access the model loses focus entirely
Why this is the answer
Vague answers usually trace back to an under-specified prompt, where the model fills gaps with assumptions. It's not about model size, temperature, or web access.
