Scenario

You have heard about ChatGPT, but you are not sure what you are supposed to do with it.

01

Think assistant, not magic

AI chat tools are useful because you can talk to them in plain language. They can explain, draft, summarise, brainstorm, and reorganise information when you give them clear direction.

02

You steer the work

The tool does not know your goal unless you say it. A good first message gives the task, context, and what a useful answer should look like.
