Excellent advice. I have a few good habits to add. 1. Get to an excellent answer first. Then in a separate prompt, ask for it to be formated. Asking for the what and the how in the same prompt can overload and confuse it. 2. Express disappointment when an answer isn't as good or complete as expected. Tell it what is missing, and ask how you could have prompted better to get what is missing. Boil down its suggestions to the key difference and redo. This way, the AI learns how you think and you learn how to prompt the desired thinking. 3. Ask it something you are already an expert in. Do the above #2 sequence. Try to nail the clear and targeted prompt on the first try. Look to be impressed at how Excellent it can be when prompted well. This is the skill necessary for creating agentic AI.
What a terrific, extremely helpful episode. Great work here! What specific tools or approaches do youn employ to help you archive and retrieve all the prompting strategies, tactics, and use cases you discover for your work?
Never understood that "Give it a role" thing. It's either an expert in everything already or it's not. How does me telling an AI that it's an expert going to make it better. In the small stuff I've done, was never impressed with any big differences. Another "thing" to fill up content and sound like an expert AI guy. Glad you don't do think. Enjoying your work. tks.
How does AI know what’s important? Are we assuming that AI is trained on best practices or found something on the internet describing what’s important?

Agree expressing disappointment is useful to let it understand your criteria and put it in high priority. Thanks for sharing your experience!
True! It's actually amazing how AI matches your creativity in making your ideas be painted in your own specific way
Love how you put it in this way! Exactly, I still believe creativity is coming from human

Appreciate your kind words!
I use Notion to organize the prompts that I use the most, also setup up using custom instructions within project.
@@graceleungyl Thank you!
