In this week’s Sam’s Minute Snippet, we’re kicking off a series on ChatGPT best practices, starting with how to prompt like a pro. The key to better responses is asking clear, specific questions—ChatGPT works best when given detailed instructions. Instead of broad, generic prompts, guiding it with context, desired format, and key details leads to more useful answers. If the first response isn’t perfect, refining it by requesting simplification, key takeaways, or a different tone can make all the difference. Mastering this skill will unlock way more value from ChatGPT every time you use it!
