The prompt · ChatGPT

Teach me to use an AI chat well.

I want AI for: [list]
Tools I have: [ChatGPT / Claude / Gemini / other]
What goes wrong now: [vague answers / inventing]

Ask me up to 3 short questions first if anything important is missing. Wait for my answers.

Then:
1. Five habits that improve answers.
2. A practice prompt I should try now.
3. How to check answers (especially facts and numbers).
4. When not to use AI.

Only use what I've told you, leave blanks for anything I haven't given, and don't invent facts, steps or official URLs you're not sure of. UK English.

Stay in this ChatGPT chat. Do not turn on apps or connectors, and do not use memory from another chat.

A short example

Fill the blanks, then paste. list: a short note you already have. ChatGPT / Claude / Gemini / other: a short note you already have. Leave the rest of the prompt as written.
