Live prompting lets a person or audience change an active generative process without restarting it. The system receives a message during operation, interprets the request, and applies it to the next output that has not already been finalized.
A responsive implementation needs clear queue priority, moderation, context management, and feedback about when a request will take effect. Otherwise users may repeat commands or assume the system ignored an input that is still waiting behind generated content.

Frequently asked questions
How is live prompting different from an ordinary prompt?
A live prompt arrives during an ongoing session and must interact with current state, queued work, latency, and other users' inputs.
Can every live prompt change the next scene?
Not necessarily. Moderation, priority rules, generation already in progress, or conflicting audience requests can delay or reject it.
