It does have a tendacy to meander or spend too time reflecting on a topic instead of distilling the details. However the new ability to add a prompt improves this greatly.

Some instructions that worked for me:

- Specifics instead of high level

- Approach from non-critical perspective

- Dont be philosophical

- Use direct quotes often

- Focus on the details. Provide a lesson, not reflections

- Provide a 'sparknotes' style thorough understanding of the subject
