AI will not take over., But humans who can fully utilise AI will.

Discover all the essential information about ChatGPT and learn how to leverage it effectively for maximum success in 2024.

This guide will walk you through all you need to learn and know about ChatGPT, from prompting techniques to best practices for using ChatGPT and custom prompts for different professions like Sales, Marketing, Web development, Data Science, etc.

Before we start, remember these pro tips…

It’s better to use ChatGPT alongside other productivity tools to maximize efficiency.
Use a handful of budget-friendly productivity and AI tools in conjunction with ChatGPT, such as Notion-AI(AI-Everything app), Miro(Free Visual Content Creation from text/chat tool), Quillbot(Grammarly’s more affordable and better version), and SaneBox(Free Email Management tool), which I personally use.
These tools are not only cost-effective but will also significantly boost your productivity, enabling you to excel in your day-to-day tasks.
Not happy with the output? Tweak these prompts slightly and try again, or ask it to improve its answer.
Good prompting skills will always benefit you, whether working with ChatGPT or any other LLM/Generative AI tool.
