Ep 92: Mailbag - Diving Into Listener Questions

Author: Cary Weston November 20, 2025 Duration: 27:29

Episode  Summary

In this solo episode, host Cary Weston returns after a month-long recovery from deviated septum surgery. He shares updates on his health, the delay in launching the "Curiosity Club," and recent speaking engagements. Cary also dives into a powerful ChatGPT tip for complex tasks and answers listener mail covering real-life questions about using ChatGPT for business, writing, caregiving, and parenting.

 

3 Key Takeaways

  • Best phrase for complex prompts: When working with ChatGPT on multi-step tasks, use this exact line: [pause and then wait to proceed] at the end of each step to slow things down and keep the output focused and thoughtful.

  • Turning AI curiosity into business: If you're passionate about ChatGPT, start simply by sharing what you're learning. Whether on social media, through newsletters, or in casual conversations, consistently showing and telling builds trust, credibility, and even business opportunities.

  • AI at home and in parenting: ChatGPT can be a supportive tool not just for work, but for managing life, caregiving, and parenting. It can help you organize your thoughts, reduce mental load, and even help teach kids how to think critically about technology—even when schools aren't on board yet.
