About this episode
Fam, prompting is super important…but it’s not that serious. In this episode I dive into the two things that matter most when looking to become an “AI whisperer”: your ability to articulate what you want, and your willingness to iterate with the model. The better you can communicate with the model, the better your results are going to be. None of this is revolutionary, and honestly, that's kind of the whole point.
