What are roles in prompting ?

Quick Answer

Roles set the model’s mindset and context before it replies.

Defining a role anchors the model’s reasoning. Saying “Act as a VC analyst” triggers responses consistent with that persona. It narrows interpretation and improves relevance, especially for professional or creative tasks.
