Episode description
If you've ever yelled at ChatGPT for giving you a dumb answer, maybe the problem isn’t the AI—it’s the way you asked. In this episode, we break down how to prompt reasoning models the right way. From skipping “think step by step” to using the “Self-Ask” trick, we’ll show you how to get AI to actually think instead of just parroting back words. Because when it comes to talking to AI, it’s not just what you ask—it’s how you ask it.
