  • Talk to It, Don't Prompt It: You'll get better results when you talk to ChatGPT like a real person, offering background, goals, and asking it to clarify anything unclear before it starts working.

  • Use It for Real-World Scenarios: Cary's story of helping his daughter role-play for a job interview shows just how practical and comforting ChatGPT can be when used creatively.
