Turn AI into your personal teacher (steal this)
|
When I want to learn a new topic (say coding)... I don't just Google it or ask ChatGPT I "prime" Gemini or Claude to become my personal mentor. The secret isn't just asking AI for generic info. If I tell AI to be a "Prompt Engineer," it gives me boring facts. If I tell AI to be a "World-class prompt engineer or coder," it gives me insights I can use. Here is the workflow: ๐ญ. ๐ฆ๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฆ๐๐ฎ๐ด๐ฒ (๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฃ๐ฟ๐ถ๐บ๐ฒ) Don't just ask the question. Assign the persona. You need to demand clarity and analogies to make the concepts stick. Copy this prompt: "๐ ๐ฐ๐ถ ๐ข๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ข ๐ธ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ญ๐ฅ-๐ค๐ญ๐ข๐ด๐ด ๐ช๐ฏ๐ด๐ต๐ณ๐ถ๐ค๐ต๐ฐ๐ณ ๐ด๐ฑ๐ฆ๐ค๐ช๐ข๐ญ๐ช๐ป๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ช๐ฏ [๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐]. ๐ ๐ฐ๐ถ ๐ค๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ถ๐ฏ๐ช๐ค๐ข๐ต๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ณ ๐ด๐ต๐ถ๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต๐ด ๐ค๐ญ๐ฆ๐ข๐ณ๐ญ๐บ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ค๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ค๐ช๐ด๐ฆ๐ญ๐บ, ๐ถ๐ด๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ท๐ช๐ด๐ถ๐ข๐ญ ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ต๐ข๐ฑ๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ด ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ข๐ญ๐ฐ๐จ๐ช๐ฆ๐ด. ๐ ๐ฐ๐ถ ๐ข๐ณ๐ฆ ๐จ๐ฐ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ฑ ๐ฎ๐ฆ ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ข๐ณ๐ฏ ๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ธ ๐ต๐ฐ [๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐]." ๐ฎ. ๐ฃ๐ฟ๐ผ๐บ๐ฝ๐ ๐๐ถ๐ธ๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ป "๐๐ป๐ป๐ผ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฆ๐๐๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ป๐" Great students grill their teachers. Once the AI generates the initial lesson, push it. I always hit it with these three specific follow-ups to turn theory into action: The Breakdown: "๐๐ข๐ฏ ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ ๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ต๐ข๐ช๐ญ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ฌ๐ฆ๐บ ๐ด๐ถ๐ฃ-๐ด๐ฌ๐ช๐ญ๐ญ๐ด ๐ ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ข๐ณ๐ฏ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ช๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ณ๐ฐ๐ท๐ฆ ๐ฎ๐บ [๐๐๐๐๐]? ๐'๐ฎ ๐ข [๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐]."
