Communication Tips for Speaking with Edmin

Every time you send a message to Edmin, he assigns it to a category of topics he believes it belongs to and provides an answer, based on that assignment. This means that when you merge sentences from different topics into a single message, Edmin will get confused and fail to absorb the distinct information you provide.

For example, the phrase ‘Hi Edmin! What can you do?‘ is assigned to two different topic groups. Thus, it would be better to say ‘Hi’, wait for a response, and then ask ‘What can you do?’ at a later stage in the conversation

Please include all appropriate technical terms, but minimise any introductory phrases and background information that is not directly related to your question.
