Using AQR Assist

AQR Assist is a powerful tool that allows you to chat with an expert-driven AI bot to ‘assist’ in your development. Using a chatbot effectively can be challenging, especially if it is your first time. In this guide we will walkthrough the basics of using the chatbot interface, and how to write the perfect prompts to produce effective responses.

How Does AQR Assist Work?

AQR Assist works just like a skilled soccer coach who has the knowledge of all things soccer stored in a form of a digital brain.

This digital brain is powered by a technology from OpenAI called GPT-4.

It's like a super-smart computer program that is great at understanding and generating human-like text.

This smart program helps our chatbot understand your questions and then craft a relevant response.

But, to make sure our chatbot really knows its soccer, we also spent time teaching it (we call this 'training') with lots of soccer-specific information and resources.

This helps AQR Assist provide you with advice tailored to your soccer needs.

When you chat with AQR Assist, you're really tapping into a deep well of soccer wisdom.

You can ask it anything about soccer, from improving your skills and techniques to strategizing game plans, and AQR Assist will provide guidance and advice based on its extensive soccer knowledge.

So go ahead and interact with AQR Assist.

It's like having a 24/7 soccer coach, always ready to assist and guide you towards becoming a better player.

Best Practices

Tips and Tricks

• Start by saying "Hi" or "Hello AQR Assist". The chatbot will introduce itself and may provide you with a brief overview of its capabilities.

• You can ask AQR Assist anything related to soccer or sports training. Just type something like "How can I improve my dribbling skills?" or "What are the best exercises for soccer training?"

• Be sure to use specific keywords. AQR Assist is programmed to understand certain keywords. Try phrases like "dribbling tips", "shooting techniques", or "fitness for soccer".

• To tailor the advice to your needs, provide your age and experience level*. For example, "I am 14 years old and a beginner." This will help AQR Assist give you suitable advice. (*See our FAQs below regarding our Privacy Policy).

• Although AQR Assist is a chatbot, try to use full sentences and be as clear as possible. This will increase the chances of AQR Assist understanding your requests.

• If you don’t understand something, don’t worry! Just type "Could you repeat that?" or "Could you explain that in a simple way?" and AQR Assist will be more than happy to assist you.

The Best Prompts

Although there is not a perfect prompt for any AI chatbot, we can certainly create better ones to maximize the output quality.

Thankfully for you, we’ve created a few prompt ‘templates’ to get you started.

You can use these templates to form your own questions and prompts anytime.

1. For asking about a specific skill in soccer: "Can you help me improve my [insert skill here, such as 'dribbling', 'passing', 'goal keeping']?"

2. To request a tutorial or step-by-step guide: "Please create a guide on how to [insert specific move or exercise here]?"

3. To ask for advice: "What is your advice on [insert specific soccer topic here, such as 'choosing soccer boots', 'pre-match diet']?"

4. To ask for advice on a specific skill: "I want to improve my [insert soccer skill like 'dribbling', 'shooting', 'goalkeeping']. Can you provide me with some drills or advice?"

5. To share your current skills: "I am currently able to [describe your current abilities]. How can I improve this or what should be my next steps?"

6. To ask goal-related questions: "I want to [insert soccer-related goal]. What kind of training plan would you recommend?"

7. To understand your background: "I am a [insert your skill level such as 'beginner', 'intermediate', 'advanced'] player in soccer, how can I improve at [insert skill/area]?"

8. For asking for feedback: "I have been recently working on my [insert skill/area they've been working on such as 'dribbling' or 'shooting accuracy']. Can you suggest some more exercises to improve progress?"
