Tired of asking ChatGPT a great question and getting… blah? In this episode of Everyday AI Made Simple – AI for Everyday Tasks, we break the “meh” cycle and show you the three rules that instantly upgrade your prompts and your results:
- Be specific, not vague
- Give context (the why, who, and constraints)
- Assign a role (“Act as a…” to cast the AI like a specialist)
We also share three bonus tricks to make AI actually useful in your day-to-day: iterate like a conversation, control the format (tables, bullets), and set limits/jargon filters so you get clear, actionable output—fast. Expect practical, relatable examples (travel planning, work docs, summaries for non-technical teammates) you can copy today. Episode based on the “smart friend” mindset.
If you’ve ever felt AI was overhyped, this one flips that switch. Friendly, fast, and a little bit cheeky—like your smartest friend who actually answers the question.
