Problem: AI Stops Mid Sentence
The AI stops mid-sentence. Just… stops. You have to beg it to continue.
Why it Happens
LLMs have hard limits for responses (usually ~4000 words). When they hit it, they stop – even mid-word.
The Fix:
Try these solutions in order until one works
Preempt the Cut
Add to Prompt: “If you run out of space, end with ‘[CONTINUING]’ so I know”
[Why it works: Signals incomplete response]
Chunk Request
Add to your prompt: “Give me this in parts. Part 1 first.”
[Why it works: AI plans for limits upfront]
The Continue Trick
When it stops, just type: “Continue exactly where you stopped”
[Why it works: Maintains context for the AI]
