    # I AM GPTED - Episode: "Stop Talking to Your AI Like It's Broken"

    ---

    **[INTRO MUSIC: Upbeat, slightly irreverent tech vibe]**

    **MAL:**
    Hey, welcome back to I Am GPTed—the show where I teach you to talk to robots like you actually know what you're doing. I'm Mal, your Misfit Master of AI, and today we're fixing the most common reason your ChatGPT outputs are mediocre: you're basically mumbling at it.

    **[TRANSITION MUSIC]**

    **MAL:**
    So here's the thing nobody tells you: your AI isn't broken. You're just giving it terrible instructions. It's like asking someone for directions while staring at your shoes. The AI will try, sure, but it's flying blind.

    Let me show you what I mean with something called **role assignment**—basically, you tell the AI who it should pretend to be before asking your actual question. Sounds silly? Wait for it.

    **Before:** "Write me a LinkedIn post about my new job."

    Your AI spits out corporate word-salad that sounds like it was written by a motivational poster factory.

    **After:** "You are a career coach known for being funny and real. You're skeptical of corporate speak but genuinely excited about people's wins. Write me a LinkedIn post about my new job."

    Suddenly you get something with personality. Something people actually read.

    That's role assignment. Three words—"You are a"—and everything changes. According to my research, this is one of the most powerful techniques you can use. You're not being weird; you're being *specific*.

    **[TRANSITION MUSIC]**

    **MAL:**
    Now, here's a use case nobody thinks about: **use AI to interview yourself for your own business**. Seriously.

    Let me paint the picture. You're starting a side hustle. You're terrified. You have a million questions but no mentor. So here's what you do: Tell your AI to play the role of a successful entrepreneur in your field. Ask it the tough questions you're afraid to ask yourself. "What am I going to screw up?" "Where do I cut corners?" "What should I spend money on versus skip?"

    It's like having a business advisor who costs nothing and doesn't judge you. Game changer.

    **[TRANSITION MUSIC]**

    **MAL:**
    Okay, confession time. I made this mistake for like six months straight. **Beginners treat AI like a magic 8-ball**—you shake it once and expect perfection. Then you're shocked when it's mediocre.

    Here's the real move: **treat AI like a collaborative brainstorm partner**. Ask it something. Look at the response. Push back. Ask follow-up questions. Refine. This isn't lazy; this is how you actually get good stuff.

    I used to be the guy expecting perfection on draft one. Turns out I was just impatient. The AI wasn't the problem.

    **[TRANSITION MUSIC]**

    **MAL:**
    Quick exercise for you—and seriously, do this today. Pick something you want to write: an email, a job application, whatever. Write your first draft. Now open ChatGPT and use role assignment. Tell it to be a professional editor who fixes clarity, not just grammar. Paste your draft. Watch what happens.

    Do this three times this week. You'll feel the difference immediately.

    **[TRANSITION MUSIC]**

    **MAL:**
    Last thing: **always, always check the AI's work against reality**. Did it make up statistics? Did it oversimplify something important? Did it sound confident while being completely wrong? That's AI's superpower and its fatal flaw rolled into one.

    Read what it gives you. Cross-reference. Use your brain. The AI is a tool, not a substitute.

    **[TRANSITION MUSIC]**

    **MAL:**
    That's what we've got for you today on I Am GPTed. Please hit subscribe—it helps and honestly, I need the validation. Thanks for listening.

  • Master AI Prompts: Unleash Your Inner Tech Maverick with These Pro Tricks

    Master AI Prompts: Unleash Your Inner Tech Maverick with These Pro Tricks
    Feb 7 2026
    **I Am GPTed**
    *Episode: "Prompt Like a Pro Without the Hype"*

    *[Upbeat, quirky intro music fades in – think glitchy synths with a misfit vibe.]*

    **Mal:** Hey misfits, welcome to *I Am GPTed*, where I, Mal – your self-appointed Misfit Master of AI – dish out practical tips for wrangling ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and whatever LLM the tech bros dream up next. No PhD required, just plain talk for beginners like us who’d rather get stuff done than chase hype. Today: one killer prompting trick, a sneaky everyday use case, my own epic fail, a quick practice drill, and how to spot AI crap from gold. Let’s dive in before I bore you with my origin story.

    First up: the **Output Redirect** technique. It’s like hiring the AI as your own prompt coach. Instead of vague asks, tell it what you wanted versus what it gave, and watch it fix itself. Here’s my before-and-after.

    *Before – my lazy prompt:* “Write a proposal intro for my freelance gig targeting a startup.” AI spits out some bland corporate sludge: “Dear Client, we’re excited to offer services... blah blah.”

    *After – with Output Redirect:* “Here’s what I asked: [paste the lame prompt]. Here’s what I got: [paste the output]. Here’s what I really wanted: punchy, fun, mentions my quirky AI niche, under 100 words. Rewrite it better and explain why your first try missed.” Boom – suddenly it’s engaging, tailored, and cites my misfit edge. Offorte nails this as a gap-bridger between your brain and the AI’s patterns. Try it; it’s sarcasm-proof.

    Next, a practical use case you novices skip: **meal planning for busy weeks**. Not “summarize diets,” but “I’m a desk jockey with lactose issues, hating cooking. Plan 5 dinners under 20 minutes using fridge staples: eggs, rice, veggies, chicken. List shopping gaps.” AI hands you a no-brainer weekly menu. Saves your sanity, wallet, and that 8pm “screw it, pizza” regret. Codecademy shows specifics like this crush generic fluff.

    Common beginner mistake? **Vague prompts without context**. I did this for months – asked “Compare EVs and gas cars,” got a rambling mess. Duh, no focus! Avoid by nailing who, what, where: “Compare EV vs. gas car environmental impact on carbon emissions and battery mining for city commuters.” Codecademy calls this the scatter-killer. Own my goof: I wasted hours regenerating until I learned.

    Quick exercise: Grab your AI of choice. Prompt: “Act as my brainstorming buddy. I need 5 wild ideas for a side hustle under $100 startup. For each, list pros, cons, first step.” Pick one, refine with Output Redirect. Do it twice weekly – builds your prompting muscle like reps at a gym, minus the sweat.

    Finally, evaluate AI output: **Check for hallucinations and logic gaps**. Ask follow-up: “Verify facts here with sources. Flag assumptions. Rate confidence 1-10.” Rewrite weak spots. It’s your bullshit detector in a hype-filled world.

    That’s your toolkit, misfits – practical, no fluff. If this sparked your AI game, subscribe wherever you pod. Thanks for listening! This has been a Quiet Please production – head to quietplease.ai for more. Go prompt wild.

  • Unlock AI Prompting Secrets: Your Guide to Smarter, More Effective Conversations

    Unlock AI Prompting Secrets: Your Guide to Smarter, More Effective Conversations
    Feb 6 2026
    **I Am GPTed**
    *Episode: "Prompt Like a Pro, Without the Hype"*

    *[Upbeat, quirky intro music fades in – think glitchy synths with a misfit vibe. Music swells then drops.]*

    **Mal:** Hey misfits, welcome to *I Am GPTed*, where I, Mal – the Misfit Master of AI, or just Mal if you're allergic to titles – dish out practical AI tips that actually work. No PhD required, just plain English and a dash of sarcasm for the soul. Today, we're hacking your AI chats to get smarter replies, sneaky everyday wins, and dodging newbie traps. Because let's face it, the tech bros promise AI will cure world hunger, but it can't even spell your name right without help. Stick around – you'll leave sharper than me on a good day.

    First up: one prompting trick that turns meh responses into gold. It's called **Chain-of-Thought prompting**. Tell the AI to "think step by step" like it's solving a puzzle, not just blurting answers. Here's my cringe before-and-after.

    Before – my lazy prompt to ChatGPT: "How do I fix a leaky faucet?" It spits back a generic list: tighten nut, replace washer, blah blah. Useless for a plumbing dummy like me.

    After: "How do I fix a leaky faucet? Think step by step: diagnose the type of leak, list tools needed, then safe steps." Boom – it walks me through: "Step 1: Turn off water. Step 2: Check if it's drip or spray – drip means washer, spray means cartridge. Tools: wrench, towel. Don't flood your kitchen like I did." Responses get 20-30% better, per tests on models like GPT-4o and Gemini. Everyday analogy? It's like giving directions: "Turn left" sucks; "Pass the gas station, then left at the oak tree" gets you there.

    Next, a practical use case you novices skip: **meal planning for picky eaters on a budget**. Prompt Grok or Claude: "I'm a busy parent with a 5-year-old who hates veggies, $50 grocery budget for 5 dinners. Think step by step: suggest kid-friendly recipes hiding greens, shopping list under budget, prep time under 30 mins." It spits out ninja tactics like blending spinach into meatballs. Saved my wallet and sanity – who knew AI could be a short-order chef whisperer?

    Common beginner mistake? Treating AI like a mind reader. You vague-prompt: "Write an email," and get corporate drivel. I did this for weeks, firing off one-liners like a caveman. Fix it: **Give context first**. "You're me, a sarcastic freelancer emailing a client about a late project. Keep it under 150 words, apologize without groveling." Avoids fluff, nails your voice. Lesson learned the hard way – my emails used to sound like robot HR.

    Build skills with this simple exercise: Pick Claude or Gemini. Prompt: "Act as my debate coach. Argue both sides of 'Pineapple belongs on pizza' step by step. Then quiz me with 3 questions." Respond, iterate with follow-ups. Do it daily – you'll spot weak logic fast, like training a puppy with treats.

    Last tip for evaluating AI slop: **The human sniff test**. Read aloud – does it flow like a convo or robot manual? Fact-check one claim (Google it), then tweak: "Rewrite this more casual, fix any errors." Iterate twice. If it still flops, trash and reprompt.

    That's your toolkit, misfits – practical, no hype.
