Chunk-by-chunk dialogue2. Massive single promptMost people fail by sitting in the middle.Start conversational, then compress into mega-prompts.6) Quality Control Method:1. Generate multiple versions2. Apply your taste/judgment3. Refine best options4. Test against goalsRemember: AI suggestions need human curation!7) The Education Leverage Play:Learning frameworks = AI superpowersWhat took experts years to master can now be:1. Learned quickly2. Taught to AI3. Scaled infinitelyThis is the real opportunity!8) Bottom Line:The future belongs to "orchestrators" - people who:- Understand frameworks- Make high-level decisions- Use AI as a tool- Maintain quality controlDon't fight the future - leverage it! Notable Quotes:"AI is not a silver bullet. On some level, you do have to have a baseline understanding of how the thing is supposed to work so that you can prompt AI in order to do it." - Nicolas Cole"90% of the value is not in the writing. It is in the fact that you said what you're going to give [the reader]." - Nicolas ColeLCA helps Fortune 500s and fast-growing startups build their future - from Warner Music to Fortnite to Dropbox.
