Weโre curious about those light bulb moments โ the shifts in how you use AI that suddenly made it significantly more helpful.
A couple of examples from the team to get you thinking:
For one of us realised how much better the output became when we gave AI proper context โ things like the tone we wanted, the structure of the output, or a few examples to follow.
Another had a breakthrough when they stopped taking the first response at face value. They started iterating โ using the first draft as a base, editing it, then looping it back in. That back-and-forth really unlocked better results.
Iโd say my unlock was when I started treating AI like a really knowledgeable intern.
What I mean by that is: I stopped expecting the first response to be amazing. Iโve got friends who dismiss AI because the first thing it gives them isnโt perfect and I used to do the same.
But once I realised the real value comes from building on that first response โ iterating, refining, asking follow-ups.
My unlock was when I started bothering to pay for the tools.
I used to only use the free versions of both ChatGPT and Claude, but now I pay for them โ and Iโm getting significantly better results than I used to.
Iโd agree with you. I think the moment I really started understanding how to use AI properly was when I realised how important it is to give it context.
