Ep 103 - Let's Talk About You

About this episode

Cary discusses how teaching AI tools about your personal and professional context can enhance their usefulness.

Episode Summary In this solo episode, Cary talks about a simple idea that can make AI tools way more useful: teaching them who you are. He explains that if ChatGPT, Claude, or another tool does not really know your personal and professional context, the answers you get will stay generic and can miss what matters most to you. Cary walks through how to check what the tool already knows, how to spot what is wrong or missing, and how to build an "About Me" file inside a project so future responses feel more relevant, personal, and helpful. 3 Key Takeaways Ask your AI tool what it knows about you personally and professionally so you can see what is accurate, what is off, and what is missing. Create an "About Me" document inside a project and instruct the tool to review it before giving answers, so the work feels more tailored to you. A better result usually comes from better context, not just better prompts. The more clearly the tool understands you, the more useful its output becomes. Cary offers customized ChatGPT training.
