95% of youtubers says they have metrics on how users uses chatGPT when 95% of them never shows where these metrics comes from!
Positive: you are spot on the tips you give. Negative: you go too fast, you don’t summarize at the end and one of my favorite prompts is if you only remember one thing of my video is this …. This helps me learn. Btw, I’m 72 and I’m still learning AI.
Great tips! I’m a college professor teaching business courses, and I really appreciate the clarity of your insights. Higher education is struggling right now to teach students how to use AI effectively and prepare them for their careers. One of the biggest challenges is that there are so many AI tools out there, and the technology is evolving at a pace no education system can fully keep up with. I think the safest and most impactful way to prepare future professionals is to focus on teaching the core foundations of AI usage rather than chasing every new tool. Could you make a video on what universal skills and/or knowledge business students should have in order to be “AI-ready”? That would be super helpful for both educators and students. Thank you!
Pro tip: Use a one-word trigger for this, result is you just have to type perfmode somewhere in your prompt, same result but faster/easier: Setup — paste this once into ChatGPT: Please remember: when I include the word "perfmode" (case-insensitive) in any prompt, you must (1) build a 100-point quality rubric for my task and iterate silently until the result scores ≥95/100; (2) run an extra source check for any unstable facts and cite key sources; (3) show only the final answer (no drafts or outlines). Confirm this is saved. Optional: Make it the default: Treat "perfmode" as the default behavior even when I don’t type it.

The quality and clarity of your videos will never cease to impress me.
It tends to get stuck sometimes, especially if you agree to its suggestions. you ask it to "list data so and so", it'll do that and ask you "want me to format xy?" if you say yes (because it has reasonable suggestions sometimes) it'll just keep going "should I now...?", "now want me to...?", when all you do is wanna view the data but it keeps on wanting to format it. relevance seems to be a factor here
The “think carefully”, “make a rubric” , and “specificity” tips brought me a much higher quality output today. Thank you.
Good to know I'm not far off with my prompts but now have some specific ways to improve. Thanks
