What You Can Do with AI

Real tasks. Real prompts. Copy, paste, and get results in minutes.

1

Write your first prompt that actually works

How to use this

  1. Open ChatGPT (chatgpt.com) or Claude (claude.ai). Start a new chat.
  2. Copy the prompt below. Replace everything in [BRACKETS] with your own details — or use the filled example as-is to see the technique in action.
  3. Review the output. If any section needs tweaking, reply: "Make the tone more casual" or "Shorten paragraph 2."
  4. Copy the final result into your email tool, Google Doc, or wherever you need it.
The 4-Layer Formula
CONTEXT: You are a [YOUR ROLE, e.g. product marketer, HR manager, freelance designer] writing to [YOUR AUDIENCE, e.g. premium SaaS users, new employees, potential clients] who value [WHAT THEY CARE ABOUT, e.g. efficiency, clarity, creativity].

INSTRUCTION: [WHAT YOU NEED, e.g. Write a feature announcement email for our new Dark Mode / Draft an onboarding welcome message / Write a project proposal intro].

FORMAT: [HOW TO STRUCTURE IT, e.g. Subject line + 3 short paragraphs (under 150 words total) / Bullet-point summary + 1 action item / 5 slides with headers and speaker notes].

CONSTRAINTS: [RULES TO FOLLOW, e.g. Mention battery savings and eye strain reduction. No corporate jargon. No exclamation marks / Keep reading level at grade 8. Include one personal anecdote / Maximum 200 words. Use "you" language throughout].

--- FILLED EXAMPLE (ready to paste as-is) ---

CONTEXT: You are a product marketer writing to premium SaaS users who value efficiency.

INSTRUCTION: Write a feature announcement email for our new Dark Mode.

FORMAT: Subject line + 3 short paragraphs (under 150 words total).

CONSTRAINTS: Mention battery savings and eye strain reduction. No corporate jargon. No exclamation marks.

Why this works: Four layers — Context, Instruction, Format, Constraints — give AI everything it needs in a single message. No back-and-forth. The template at the top works for any task; the filled example shows exactly what "good" looks like.

Make AI think step by step

ChatGPTChatGPTClaudeClaude·Course 26 — Make AI Think Step-by-Step

How to use this

  1. Open ChatGPT (chatgpt.com) or Claude (claude.ai). Start a new chat.
  2. Copy the prompt below. Replace the vendor details with your own two options — or use the example to see how step-by-step reasoning works.
  3. Read the analysis. Check each step for logic errors — that's the whole point of Chain-of-Thought: you can see WHERE the reasoning went right or wrong.
  4. Ask a follow-up: "Now present this as a 3-slide recommendation for my manager" to turn the analysis into a deliverable.
Chain-of-Thought Prompting
Help me choose between two options for [YOUR DECISION, e.g. company retreat venue, software vendor, marketing agency].

Option A: [NAME]
- Price: [COST]
- [KEY METRIC 1]: [VALUE]
- [KEY METRIC 2]: [VALUE]
- Reviews: [RATING] ([NUMBER] reviews)

Option B: [NAME]
- Price: [COST]
- [KEY METRIC 1]: [VALUE]
- [KEY METRIC 2]: [VALUE]
- Reviews: [RATING] ([NUMBER] reviews)

My situation: [TEAM SIZE / BUDGET / CONSTRAINTS].
Top priority: [WHAT MATTERS MOST].

Analyze step by step:
1. Score each option on every metric (1–10 scale)
2. Weight the scores by my stated priorities
3. Identify the single biggest risk of each option
4. Give me a final recommendation in one sentence with your confidence level (high/medium/low)

--- FILLED EXAMPLE ---

Help me choose between vendors for our company retreat.

Option A: Mountain Lodge
- Price: $15,000 total
- Capacity: 50 people
- Distance: 2 hours away
- Reviews: 4.2/5 (89 reviews)

Option B: Lakeside Resort
- Price: $22,000 total
- Capacity: 80 people
- Distance: 45 minutes
- Reviews: 4.7/5 (234 reviews)

My situation: 35 people. Budget: $20,000. Priority: accessibility.

Analyze step by step:
1. Score each option on every metric (1–10 scale)
2. Weight the scores by my stated priorities
3. Identify the single biggest risk of each option
4. Give me a final recommendation in one sentence with your confidence level (high/medium/low)

Unlock this prompt

No spam. Just the prompt.

Why this works: When you say "analyze step by step" and give numbered steps, AI shows its reasoning instead of jumping to a conclusion. You can spot exactly where it went wrong — and the confidence level at the end forces it to be honest about uncertainty.

Teach AI by example (get consistent results every time)

How to use this

  1. Open ChatGPT (chatgpt.com) or Claude (claude.ai). Start a new chat.
  2. Copy the prompt below. Replace the 2 examples with real responses YOUR team has written — this teaches AI your specific tone and quality bar.
  3. Replace the "NOW RESPOND TO" question with any new customer message.
  4. Use the output directly in your support tool, or reply: "Write 5 more responses for these questions: [paste questions]" to batch-produce consistent replies.
Few-Shot Prompting
Write customer support responses that match my team's exact style.

EXAMPLE 1:
Customer: "[REAL QUESTION YOUR TEAM HAS ANSWERED BEFORE]"
Response: "[YOUR TEAM'S ACTUAL RESPONSE — copy-paste a real one]"

EXAMPLE 2:
Customer: "[A DIFFERENT REAL QUESTION]"
Response: "[YOUR TEAM'S ACTUAL RESPONSE TO THAT QUESTION]"

RULES:
- Match the tone, length, and structure of the examples above
- Always include a specific next step or resolution
- Never start with "I apologize for the inconvenience"

NOW RESPOND TO:
Customer: "[THE NEW QUESTION YOU NEED ANSWERED]"

--- FILLED EXAMPLE ---

EXAMPLE 1:
Customer: "I was charged twice for my subscription."
Response: "I can see the duplicate charge on your account. I've issued a refund for $29.99 — you'll see it within 3–5 business days. Is there anything else I can help with?"

EXAMPLE 2:
Customer: "Your app keeps crashing on my phone."
Response: "Sorry about that. Can you try clearing the app cache (Settings > Apps > Clear Cache)? If it persists, I'll escalate to our engineering team. What phone model are you using?"

NOW RESPOND TO:
Customer: "What's your refund policy for annual plans?"

Set AI rules that stick

ChatGPTChatGPTClaudeClaude·Course 28 — Set AI Rules That Stick

How to use this

  1. For ChatGPT: Go to Settings > Personalization > Custom Instructions. Paste the prompt into the "How would you like ChatGPT to respond?" box.
  2. For Claude: Create a new Project at claude.ai/projects. Paste the prompt into the Project Instructions field.
  3. Replace everything in [BRACKETS] with your role, audience, and preferences.
  4. Every new conversation in that project or ChatGPT session will now follow these rules automatically — no need to repeat yourself.
System Instructions
ABOUT ME:
- Role: [YOUR JOB TITLE, e.g. Marketing Manager, Freelance Writer, Product Designer]
- Industry: [YOUR FIELD, e.g. B2B SaaS, Healthcare, E-commerce]
- Experience level: [YEARS / SENIORITY]

MY AUDIENCE:
- Who I communicate with most: [e.g. clients, my team, executives, customers]
- What they value: [e.g. brevity, data, actionable takeaways, warmth]

RESPONSE RULES:
1. Default tone: [Professional but conversational / Direct and concise / Warm and encouraging]
2. Default length: [Short — under 150 words / Medium — 150–300 words / Detailed — as needed]
3. Always include: [Specific next steps / Data to support claims / Bullet-point summaries]
4. Never include: [Corporate jargon / Exclamation marks / Filler phrases like "Great question!"]
5. When I ask for feedback: Be honest and specific. Tell me what's weak, not just what's good.

Why this works: This goes into Custom Instructions (ChatGPT) or Project Instructions (Claude) — it runs automatically on every conversation. You set it once, and AI always knows your role, your audience, your tone, and your rules. No more repeating "be concise" every time.

Give AI the right role

How to use this

  1. Open ChatGPT (chatgpt.com) or Claude (claude.ai). Start a new chat.
  2. Copy the prompt below. Replace [YOUR DECISION] and the context with your actual situation.
  3. Choose 3 expert roles that match your decision. The prompt includes suggestions, or write your own.
  4. Read the debate section carefully — that's where conflicting priorities get resolved. Copy the consensus recommendation into your decision doc.
Multi-Expert Analysis
I need to make a strategic decision and I want multiple expert perspectives before I commit.

THE DECISION: [WHAT YOU'RE DECIDING, e.g. Should we build a mobile app or improve our web app? / Should I hire full-time or use contractors? / Should we raise funding or bootstrap?]

CONTEXT:
- Company/Situation: [BRIEF DESCRIPTION]
- Key numbers: [REVENUE, USERS, BUDGET, TEAM SIZE — whatever's relevant]
- Constraints: [TIME, MONEY, RESOURCES, DEADLINES]
- What I'm leaning toward: [YOUR GUT FEELING, if any]

Respond as three experts:

EXPERT 1 — [ROLE, e.g. PRODUCT MANAGER]:
Focus on [USER NEEDS, MARKET FIT, COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE].

EXPERT 2 — [ROLE, e.g. CTO]:
Focus on [TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY, MAINTENANCE COST, TEAM CAPABILITY].

EXPERT 3 — [ROLE, e.g. CFO]:
Focus on [ROI, TIMELINE TO REVENUE IMPACT, OPPORTUNITY COST].

Each expert:
1. States their recommendation (for or against)
2. Gives their #1 reason
3. Identifies the biggest risk if we follow their advice

Then all three debate and reach a final consensus. If they can't agree, explain exactly where they diverge and what additional data would resolve it.

Why this works: Three experts surface three different blind spots. The debate at the end forces AI to reconcile conflicting priorities — something a single-perspective prompt can't do. Replace the roles with any experts relevant to your decision: lawyer, marketer, engineer, customer success lead, etc.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I write my first AI prompt?

Use the 4-layer formula: Context (who you are), Instruction (what you want), Format (how to structure the output), and Constraints (what to avoid). This one framework makes every AI tool work better.

What is chain-of-thought prompting?

Chain-of-thought prompting asks AI to think step by step before giving an answer. It dramatically improves accuracy for comparisons, decisions, and complex analysis.

What is few-shot prompting?

Few-shot prompting means giving AI 2-3 examples of the output style you want before asking it to generate new content. This ensures consistent tone, format, and quality every time.

How do I set persistent AI rules?

Use ChatGPT Custom Instructions or Claude Projects to set a persona, audience, format rules, and constraints that apply to every conversation — no need to repeat yourself.

What is multi-expert prompting?

Ask AI to respond as multiple experts (e.g., Product Manager, CTO, CFO), each giving their perspective, then debating to reach a consensus. This surfaces blind spots a single perspective would miss.
