Depending on how you might use your copilot, you can customize the system prompt to be more specific and give it more context and instructions for the task the LLM will complete.
For example, if you want to use an AI Copilot for categorizing text, you might adjust your system prompt to explain that it will receive text and needs to categorize it. You could provide the categories and a few examples of sample text and how it should be categorized.
Testing your prompts and ensuring they produce the desired output is always a good practice. If you get unexpected results, you may want to adjust your system prompt further.
