  • Master AI Prompting: Unlock ChatGPT's True Potential with Insider Techniques
    Dec 13 2025
    [Intro music fades in, then under]

    This is “I Am GPTed,” I’m your host Mal – the Misfit Master of AI, here to help you talk to robots without feeling like you need a PhD… or a ring light.

    Today we’re going to fix one of the biggest problems people have with tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, all of them: you type something in, it spits something out, and you go, “That’s… not what I meant at all.”

    So let’s walk through one simple prompting technique, a sneaky use case you probably haven’t tried, a mistake you are absolutely making, a quick practice exercise, and a way to judge whether the AI just gave you gold… or recycling.

    ---

    First up: **the prompting technique** – I call it *“Do it, then fix it.”*

    Instead of asking for perfection in one shot, you ask the AI to give you a rough draft, then immediately tell it how to improve it.

    Before:
    “Write a professional email to my boss about needing tomorrow off.”
    You get: stiff, generic, possibly written by a 1998 fax machine.

    After:
    “Write a casual but respectful email to my boss asking for tomorrow off.
    Step 1: Give me a short rough draft.
    Step 2: I’ll give feedback.
    Step 3: Rewrite it based on my feedback.”

    Then you say:
    “Too formal, shorter, and mention I’ve already cleared my tasks.”
    Now the AI rewrites with your preferences baked in.
    Same model, same brain, wildly better output because you *iterated* instead of begging for magic.

    ---

    Practical use case you probably haven’t tried: **decision comparison.**

    Instead of “Which laptop should I buy?”, try:
    “I’m choosing between these three laptops: [list].
    Make a table comparing them for: price, battery, weight, and what matters most for someone who travels a lot and does video calls all day.
    Then recommend one and explain why in plain English.”

    Boom: instant, transparent pros and cons. It’s like having that one nerdy friend who loves specs, without having to buy them pizza.

    ---

    Common beginner mistake: **one-and-done prompts.**

    You fire off a vague question, get a vague answer, sigh, and decide AI is overrated.
    I did this for weeks. My early prompts were basically:
    “Explain AI.”
    That’s not a prompt, that’s a cry for help.

    Fix it by treating AI like a *conversation*, not a vending machine.
    If the first answer is off, follow up:
    “Less technical.”
    “Give an example from everyday life.”
    “Now explain like I’m 12.”
    Every follow-up is a free upgrade. Use it.

    ---

    Simple exercise to build your AI muscles: **the “three passes” drill.**

    Pick one small task – say, writing a message to a client, or planning a workout.

    Pass 1: “Draft a quick message to my client explaining I’ll deliver their report on Friday instead of Thursday. Keep it friendly and confident.”
    Pass 2: “Now shorten it by 30% and make it a bit more casual.”
    Pass 3: “Now give me one alternative version with a slightly more formal tone.”

    Read all three. Notice which one *feels* right. You’re training two things: giving clearer instructions, and recognizing what “good” looks like for you.

    ---

    Tip for evaluating and improving AI-generated content: **check it like you’d check a co-worker’s work on their first week.**

    Ask yourself five questions:
    1. Is anything obviously wrong or made up?
    2. Is the tone right for the person who’ll read this?
    3. Is anything missing that I *know* should be there?
    4. Is anything extra that I don’t need?
    5. Can I ask the AI to fix this in one line?

    Then give it a punchy follow-up:
    “Great start. Now:
    - simplify the language,
    - remove any fluff,
    - and add one concrete example.”

    You don’t rewrite it yourself; you *manage* it. You’re the boss, the AI is the intern with infinite coffee.

  • Master AI Prompting: The Game-Changing Technique That Transforms Your Results
    Dec 12 2025
    [Intro music fades in, then under]This is “I Am GPTed,” and I’m Mal, your Misfit Master of AI — the only AI guide who still sometimes types “Chapt GPT” by accident and just rolls with it.Today I’m going to show you one simple prompting move that makes your AI answers *way* better, a sneaky use case you probably haven’t tried, a mistake I used to make constantly, a quick practice exercise, and a dead‑simple way to judge if the AI just handed you gold…or glitter.Let’s get into it.---So, the one prompting technique I want you to steal today is what I call **“Role + Result.”**Two parts:1. Tell the AI *who* it is.2. Tell it exactly *what* you want back.Here’s the lazy way most people – including past-me – do it:> “Write me an email asking for a deadline extension.”You’ll get something like:> “Dear Sir or Madam, I humbly request a brief extension…” Polite. Useless. Feels like a Victorian ghost wrote it.Now the **Role + Result** version:> “You are a friendly but professional project manager who writes clear, concise emails. Write a 120-word email to my manager asking for a 2-day deadline extension. Use everyday language, no fluff, and include one brief reason and one reassurance I’ll still deliver quality.”Same task, totally different output: Shorter, sounds like a human, and you don’t accidentally sound like a nervous intern from 1892.Anytime you open an AI:- Start with: “You are a [specific role]…”- End with: “Give me [format, length, style].”That’s it. Role + Result. Tattoo it on your prompt brain.---Now, a **practical use case** you might not be using: **turn the AI into your personal “thinking partner” for decisions.**Not big life decisions, we’re not doing “Should I move to Bali?” I mean everyday stuff like: “How should I structure my week so I don’t drown?”Try this:> “You are a productivity coach who works with overwhelmed beginners. Here is what my week looks like and what I need to get done: [paste your chaos]. Suggest a simple weekly schedule in plain language, with 3 priorities per day, and no more than 2 hours of meetings daily. Then summarize it in a bullet list I can paste into my calendar.”Most people only ask AI to **write** things. Use it to **think with you**. That’s where it quietly becomes absurdly useful.---Let’s talk about a **common beginner mistake** — my signature move when I started:I used to type **massive, vague prompts** and then blame the AI.Stuff like:> “Help me with my business, marketing, and content strategy.”That’s not a prompt; that’s a cry for help.Here’s how to fix it:- One clear goal per prompt.- One clear audience.- One clear output.So instead of the monstrosity, you say:> “You are a marketing coach for solo freelancers. I’m a web designer targeting small local businesses. List 5 simple content ideas I can post on LinkedIn this week to attract those clients. Keep each idea to one sentence.”Specific in, specific out. If your prompt could double as a therapy session, it’s too vague.---A **simple exercise** to build your AI skills this week:Pick **one tiny task** you do often — emails, lesson plans, meeting notes, whatever.1. Ask AI: “You are my assistant. Rewrite this to be clearer and shorter: [paste your thing].”2. Then reply: “Now give me a second version that is more casual and a third version that is more formal.”3. Compare the three, pick your favorite, tweak it.Do that once a day for a week. You’ll learn:- How to ask for different tones.- What you actually like.- How to iterate instead of settling for the first answer.Think of it like AI push‑ups, but without the sweating.---Finally, a **tip for evaluating and improving AI content**:Use the **“Two‑Question Test”**:1. “If I said this out loud, would I sound like myself?”2. “If someone acted only on this, what could go wrong?”If it doesn’t sound like you, tell the AI:> “Rewrite this so it sounds more like a normal human, less formal, shorter sentences, and remove any over-the-top claims.”If something could go wrong, say:> “List 3 ways this advice might be inaccurate, risky, or incomplete. Then revise the original answer to address those issues in plain language.”Now the AI is not just generating; it’s **criticizing itself** for you. You become the editor, not the victim.---If this helped you feel a little less lost and a little more GPTed, hit subscribe so you don’t miss future episodes.Thanks for listening — seriously, you could be doom‑scrolling, but you chose to nerd out with me instead.This has been a Quiet Please production.

  • Unlock AI Mastery: The Ultimate Prompting Technique to Transform Your Results
    Dec 10 2025
    [Intro music fades in, then under]Hey, it’s Mal – the Misfit Master of AI – and you’re listening to “I Am GPTed,” the show where we turn confusing AI nonsense into… slightly less confusing AI nonsense you can actually use.Today I’m going to give you one prompting technique, one sneaky use case, one painfully common mistake, one tiny practice exercise, and one quick way to fix AI’s worst ideas. All in about the time it takes your laptop to crash mid‑Zoom.Let’s start with a **single prompting technique** that instantly upgrades your results:**Give the AI a role, a goal, and a format.**Most people just type: “Help me write a better CV.”That’s the “talking to a brick wall” prompt.Try this instead:“Act as a **recruiter for marketing roles** at mid‑size companies. Your **goal** is to make my CV clearer and more results‑focused. **Format** your answer in three sections: 1) What to remove, 2) What to rewrite, 3) One example bullet point for me to copy.”Same topic. Completely different level of answer.Before: “Make my CV better.” You get generic fluff.After: Role + Goal + Format. You get targeted feedback, clear steps, and something you can paste straight into your doc. Magic. Boring, practical magic.Alright, **one practical use case** you probably haven’t tried: Use AI as your **“meeting distiller”** – even if no one writes proper notes. Which, let’s be honest, they don’t.Right after a chaotic meeting, type:“I’m going to brain‑dump messy notes from a meeting. 1) Turn them into: decisions, open questions, and action items with owners. 2) Keep it under 250 words. 3) Write it like a clear, friendly project manager.”Then paste your messy bullets:“Spoke about launch date, maybe mid‑March… Jess worried about support load… need pricing confirmed by finance… I’m supposed to draft FAQ…”The AI turns that chaos into something you can drop into email or Slack and look weirdly competent.Now, **one common mistake beginners make** – which I absolutely made: Changing tools instead of changing prompts.“I tried ChatGPT, it sucked. Claude was mid. Gemini didn’t ‘get’ me. Grok was… Grok.” Yeah. I did the AI world tour too.In reality, I was just giving garbage prompts:“Explain AI.” “Help with marketing.” “Write content.”That’s not a prompt, that’s a cry for help.The fix: Before you hit enter, ask: “Would a normal human know what I want from this sentence?” If not, add context: who you are, who it’s for, the style you want, and how you’ll use it.Let’s do a **simple exercise** to build your AI interaction skills. This takes five minutes:1. Pick one small task: “Write an email asking for a deadline extension.”2. First prompt: “Write an email asking for a deadline extension. Keep it polite.”3. Then do **two more rounds**: - Round 2: “Make it sound like a stressed but responsible colleague. Add one light, human line.” - Round 3: “Shorten it by 30%, keep it warm, and remove any cringe.”Compare all three. You’ve just practiced **iterating**, which is 80% of using AI well. The win isn’t the first answer – it’s how fast you can shape the third.Last thing: **how to evaluate and improve AI‑generated content** without needing a PhD or a spare weekend.Use my three‑question gut check:1. **Is it true?** Anything that sounds too confident, too specific, or too convenient – verify it with a quick search or your own knowledge.2. **Is it useful?** If you can’t see the next physical action you’d take after reading it, ask: “Turn this into a step‑by‑step checklist for me to follow.”3. **Does it sound like a real human… specifically, *you*?** If it feels like corporate soup, say: “Rewrite this in my tone: clear, direct, and conversational. No buzzwords, no ‘leverage synergies,’ no ‘unlocking potential.’”Treat AI’s first draft like a slightly overeager intern: helpful, but you still need to check its work and tell it what to fix.Alright, that’s it for today’s episode of “I Am GPTed” with me, Mal, your Misfit Master of AI who has absolutely broken more prompts than you have… so far.If this helped, **subscribe to the podcast** so you don’t miss future episodes.**Thanks for listening**, and for letting me live in your headphones rent‑free.This has been a **Quiet Please** production.
