The 1 Reason Why Most people struggle with using AI & How to solve it

👉 The reason? Your prompt.

⌛ This is my number 1 lesson I’ve learned from spending thousands of hours building AI systems and using ChatGPT/other LLMs for day-to-day tasks.

💡 The golden rule of using AI (LLMs): Garbage in, garbage out.

💭 Remember that using AI in your business and personal life is often free or low-cost, while the cost of inaction can be significant. Many companies and individuals lose time and money every month by not using AI, even though it is easy to use by learning more yourself or hiring help.
