If you're getting mediocre or even bad results from AI tools like ChatGPT, it's not because the tech is bad. You're probably settling for mediocrity. When you problem solve with ChatGPT, the only thing standing between you and a better idea is a mouse click. At the blackjack table of problem solving, ChatGPT is your virtual solutions dealer, and that regenerate button is your way of saying hit me. You can click it as you need to until you get to 21. But determining what is actually good requires context. That's because average responses never outwardly look bad. You need perspective to be able to grade the quality and effectiveness of an idea. Motorola's Razr was a cool phone in 2004, but stack it up against the iPhone 15, and it starts looking pretty rudimentary. It's a matter of shifting your mindset from what do I think of it to what else could I think of it? How else could I approach this? These are three tips for getting more out of AI. One, use the voice function. OpenAI's voice to text software, Whisper, is a fantastic way to have a more natural brainstorming session with AI. You don't have to have all of your thoughts together. You can be totally circular, talk to it like you would a colleague. By doing so, you bypass the bottleneck of your fingers and the pursuit of perfection that often accompanies the human approach to a blinking cursor. Two, turn the tables and ask AI to prompt you. Everybody says context is critical to good prompting, but what if you don't know what context is useful? Ask ChatGPT to ask you three questions about your prompt. Ask it to interview you about the way you like to communicate. Allow it to prompt you for the context it needs to provide a better answer. Remember, AI is a colleague, and this is a collaboration. Three, never take the first answer. Know that you're receiving an answer of averages and always ask AI for more options, even if you like the first one it gave you. Tell it that and ask it to give you five more just like it. Their generant option is a quick and easy way to have AI try its answer again, but you can also ask for more perspectives. Ask it to respond in three different ways, three different voices, three different directions. One advanced tip to take your game to the next level. Critique the AI's response. Articulate why you don't like the first answer, even if it's decent and what it's lacking. Then ask it to regenerate a response based on your feedback.
