This video presents five AI prompting tips derived from Google's latest guide. The speaker aims to improve viewers' prompt writing skills for better results using AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Google Gemini.
The Power of Three: Requesting three variations of a response in the initial prompt yields more diverse and creative options, leading to better results than accepting a single response.
Multi-Step Workflows: Breaking down complex tasks into smaller, sequential prompts ("Chain of Thought prompting") reduces errors and improves overall output quality. This is more effective than attempting a single, lengthy prompt for a complex problem.
Template Time-Savers: First brainstorm template ideas with the AI, then generate the templates. This process overcomes mental blocks and offers useful templates users might not have considered. Existing templates can be further refined by providing additional details.
Top-Down Competitive Analysis: Employ a top-down approach to research, starting with broad prompts to understand the overall landscape and then narrowing the focus with progressively more specific prompts to uncover actionable insights. Google Gemini excels at summarizing information from multiple web pages for competitive analysis.
Supercharge Your PDFs (Google Gemini users): Upload PDFs to Google Drive, open with Google Docs, and then use the "at" command followed by "help me write" to leverage Gemini's capabilities within Google Docs for summarizing and creating presentations directly from the PDF content. This feature requires a Google One AI Premium plan.
