## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Detect faces in this image: [URL] and show me their attributes.
```

**Response:** 
```
I've analyzed the image. Here are the details for the detected face:

| Attribute | Value |
| :--- | :--- |
| **Gender** | Male |
| **Age** | ~28 years old |
| **Beauty Score** | 82/100 |

Should I search for this person in your registered groups?
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Compare these two face images: [URL_A] and [URL_B].
```

**Response:** 
```
The facial comparison is complete. 

**Similarity Score: 94.5**

This indicates a very high probability that these are the same person. Would you like me to check if this identity is already registered in your person library?
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Register a new person 'Alice' in group 'staff_01' with image [URL].
```

**Response:** 
```
Alice has been successfully registered in group `staff_01`.

Should I list all members currently in this group?
```
