  • Mastering AI Prompts: Transformative Techniques for Powerful Results
    Jun 20 2025
    Hey there, I'm Malachi, and you're listening to "I am GPTed" - the podcast where we cut through the AI hype and get down to what actually works. Today, we're talking about prompting techniques, practical use cases, common mistakes, and how to level up your AI skills without drowning in jargon.

    Let's kick things off with a prompting technique that took my AI game from "meh" to "not too shabby." It's all about being specific and giving context. Let's be real and get analog here... if you ask a stranger for directions to "that one place with the good burgers," you'll probably end up wandering in circles. But if you give them the restaurant name, street, and maybe even a landmark, suddenly they're a human GPS. AI is the same way.

    Here's an example: before, I'd prompt ChatGPT with something vague like "write a blog post about gardening." The results were okay, but generic. Now, I prompt with "write a 500-word blog post about organic pest control methods for tomato plants, targeting beginner gardeners. Use a friendly tone and include 3 specific product recommendations." Boom - the output is way more useful and tailored.

    Moving on to practical use cases, have you ever thought about using AI to create personalized meal plans? I know, I know - meal planning sounds about as exciting as watching paint dry. But hear me out. With a tool like ChatGPT, you can input your dietary preferences, allergies, and even your grocery budget, and it'll spit out a week's worth of recipes and a shopping list. No more staring blankly into the fridge at 6 PM wondering what to make. I learned this the hard way when I found myself eating ramen for the third night in a row...

    But I digress... let's talk about a common mistake beginners make: treating AI like a magic wand. You can't just wave it around and expect sparkles and rainbows. AI is a tool, and like any tool, it's only as good as the person using it. One time, I asked ChatGPT to "write a persuasive email," and I ended up with a generic mess that sounded like it was written by a corporate robot. The key is to break your request down into specific steps and provide plenty of context. Anyway, back to what actually helps...

    If you want to build your AI skills, here's a simple exercise: pick a topic you know well, like a hobby or your job, and try to "teach" it to ChatGPT. Break it down into small lessons and prompts, and see how the AI responds. This will help you get a feel for how to structure your prompts and communicate clearly with AI.

    Finally, let's talk about evaluating and improving AI-generated content. The key is to read it with a critical eye and ask yourself: does this make sense? Is it relevant to my audience? Does it sound like a human wrote it? If not, try rephrasing your prompt or breaking it into smaller, more specific requests.

    Well, that's all for today, folks. Remember, AI is like a fancy kitchen appliance - it can do amazing things, but you still need to read the manual and experiment to get the best results.

  • Master AI Prompting: 3 Expert Techniques to Supercharge Your Results
    Jun 18 2025
    Hey there, Malachi here, your Misfit Master of AI. Welcome back to another episode of "I am GPTed." Today, we're diving into some practical tips to help you level up your AI game, even if you're a total beginner like I was not too long ago.

    Let's kick things off with a prompting technique that can seriously improve the responses you get from AI. When you're crafting your prompts, try to be as specific as possible about the format, style, and purpose of the content you want. Let's be real and get analog here... think of it like ordering a sandwich. If you just ask for "a sandwich," you might end up with anything from a PB&J to a meatball sub. But if you specify "a turkey club on rye with light mayo, no tomatoes," you're way more likely to get exactly what you want. I learned this the hard way when I kept getting responses that were technically correct but completely missed the mark.

    For example, instead of asking an AI to "write a blog post about gardening," try something like, "Create a 1000-word blog post titled '5 Easy-to-Grow Vegetables for Beginner Gardeners' with a friendly, conversational tone and practical tips for each vegetable." Trust me, the difference in the output is night and day.

    Now, let's talk about a practical use case you might not have considered: using AI to help with meal planning and grocery lists. I know, it sounds a bit mundane, but hear me out. By inputting your dietary preferences, budget, and the number of meals you need, an AI can generate a customized meal plan and shopping list in seconds. No more staring blankly into your fridge wondering what to cook or forgetting key ingredients at the store. It's a small thing, but it can save you time and mental energy every week.

    But I digress... let's move on to a common mistake beginners make: not proofreading and editing AI-generated content. Just because an AI spit it out doesn't mean it's perfect. I once used an AI-written article without double-checking it and ended up with a post full of hilariously wrong facts and grammatical errors. Lesson learned: always give AI output a human once-over before hitting publish.

    To build your AI interaction skills, try this simple exercise: pick a topic you're interested in and generate a short article or essay using an AI tool. Then, read through the output and make a list of the strengths and weaknesses you notice. Is the information accurate? Does the tone match what you were going for? Are there any weird tangents or repetitive phrases? By critically evaluating AI-generated content, you'll start to develop an eye for what works and what doesn't.

    Anyway, back to what actually helps... here's a tip for improving AI-generated content: iteration. Don't be afraid to generate multiple versions of the same thing and cherry-pick the best parts to create a Frankenstein's monster of a final product. It's like putting together a puzzle – sometimes you have to try a bunch of different pieces before you find the ones that fit just right.

    As I wrap up this episode, I want to leave you with a quick personal anecdote. When I first started using AI tools, I was convinced I'd never be able to create anything useful with them. But then I stumbled across a tutorial that broke things down into baby steps, and something just clicked. Suddenly, I was generating content left and right, and even though a lot of it was garbage, I could see the potential. The moral of the story? Don't get discouraged if it feels like you're not "getting it" right away. Keep experimenting, keep learning, and eventually, it'll start to make sense.

  • Mastering AI Prompts: 5 Expert Techniques to Supercharge Your Digital Interactions
    Jun 17 2025
    Hey there, AI adventurers! Malachi here, your Misfit Master of AI, back with another episode of "I am GPTed." Today, we're diving into some practical prompting techniques that'll make your AI interactions smoother than a freshly waxed chatbot.

    Let's kick things off with a prompting technique that's been a game-changer for me. When you're chatting with an AI, specificity is your best friend. Instead of asking, "How do I write a good essay?" try something like, "Give me a 5-paragraph essay outline on the environmental impact of plastic straws, with a focus on marine life and practical alternatives." The difference is night and day. Believe me, I've got the before and after examples to prove it.

    But I digress... Let's talk about a practical use case you might not have considered. Have you ever struggled with crafting the perfect email? I know I have. That's where AI comes in. Feed it the key points you want to cover and let it work its magic. It's like having a personal email wizard in your pocket. Just remember to double-check for any AI-induced awkwardness before hitting send. Trust me, I learned this the hard way when I accidentally sent an email signed "Best regards, your friendly neighborhood AI assistant."

    Now, let's address a common mistake beginners make: over-relying on AI. It's tempting to think AI can solve all your problems with a snap of its digital fingers. But the truth is, AI is a tool, not a magic wand. It's there to assist and enhance, not replace human creativity and critical thinking. I've fallen into this trap myself, expecting AI to read my mind and deliver perfect results every time. Spoiler alert: it doesn't work that way.

    So, how can you avoid this pitfall? Simple. Use AI as a starting point, not an endpoint. Generate ideas, outlines, or drafts, but always put your own spin on things. Which brings me to our practice exercise of the day: take a piece of AI-generated content and make it your own. Rewrite it, add your personal flair, and see how you can improve upon what the AI gave you. It's like a creative collaboration between you and the machine.

    Lastly, let's talk about evaluating and improving AI-generated content. The key here is to approach it with a critical eye. Ask yourself: does this make sense? Is it readable? Does it actually answer the question at hand? If not, it's time to put on your editing hat and get to work. Remember, AI is only as good as the prompts you give it and the feedback you provide.

    Let's be real and get analog here... AI is a powerful tool, but it's not a replacement for human ingenuity. It's a partner in crime, a sidekick on your creative journey. Embrace it, learn from it, but never let it overshadow your own unique voice and perspective.

    Anyway, back to what actually helps... The more you practice working with AI, the better you'll get at crafting prompts, interpreting results, and refining your AI-assisted creations. It's a skill like any other, and the only way to improve is by diving in and getting your hands dirty.

    As for me, I'm still learning every day. Just the other week, I tried to use AI to help me come up with a catchy slogan for my new podcast merch. Let's just say, "I am GPTed: Resistance is Futile" didn't quite have the ring I was going for. But hey, that's the beauty of this AI journey – we're all learning and growing together.
