AI makes smart assistants and self-driving cars. But, the path is bumpy. Getting a car to drive amongst humans takes billions of miles — and accidents still happen. Asking ChatGPT to write code for you requires you to know how to fix lots of bugs. 🐞 In this issue, we dig into what it really takes to get AI to do our bidding. ( iteration )
When asking AI: Take one step at a time.
I’ve been asking ChatGPT to write code. Lots of it. OpenAI is spitting out shit code because I suck at telling it what to do. Code requires perfection to run and anything non-trivial requires clear thinking to stay mindful of all the pieces.
Chunk large things into smaller pieces.
I’ve found that ChatGPT improves with atomic units of thought. Just give it one idea at a time. If you ask it to give you one thing, you can tweak the one thing and improve it. Repeat.
“Summarize what we’ve done so far in a way I could get the exact results if I were to use it as a prompt for ChatGPT” - a prompt I’ll use to remind myself and ChatGPT how far we’ve come.
Interact frequently with the AI tools and you'll learn how to dance. In this dance you’ll feel productive with AI and get in the flow as you work with tools that are essentially trying to guess what you want with a tiny hint of mathematical reasoning to get you there. - Brian
An AI social media power tool
Social media can be overwhelming, but I've discovered a helpful AI tool called Editby.AI. It's amazing! After filling out the creator guide, it generates a wide range of content ideas for various platforms like Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Twitch, LinkedIn, and Blogs. It even suggests ideas for growth on different social media platforms. I can hit the Daily Ideas button for more content suggestions, such as tweet ideas or even AI-generated tweets using my profile URL. Although not all AI-generated ideas are perfect, some can be quite cringe-worthy.
For YouTube, Editby.AI provides video ideas, titles, scripts, and descriptions. It can also suggest video tags, predict views, and even offer ideas for improving videos based on pasted links. I really love this feature! Sometimes, I wish AI could magically add more hours to my day so I could dedicate more time to working on my YouTube and Twitch channels, or maybe even both. - Zeng
