What you'll learn

7 AI habits to fix, and the better habit for each

Saurav and James say 73% of knowledge workers use AI weekly, yet few change a default setting. After two years of daily use, they walk through the 7 mistakes even daily users make, with a simple fix for each.

Just because AI can do something does not mean it should. They also cover when to restart a chat, how to build your context once, and how to get more from Claude, ChatGPT and Perplexity.

A taste of the session

Here's what Saurav and James cover

  1. Mistake 1

    You never opened the settings panel

    Saurav and James say 90% of users have never opened the settings. Many tools remember across chats and may use your conversations to improve the model, so they show what to review and switch off.

  2. Mistake 2

    You repeat instead of restart

    When AI gets it wrong, typing "try again" keeps the wrong direction in the context. Start a new chat with a better prompt and move on.

  3. Mistake 3

    You stay in the browser and skip the desktop app

    The desktop app can see your screen, read your folders and connect to tools like Slack, Drive, HubSpot and your calendar. James and Saurav show it live.

  4. Mistake 4

    You start from zero every conversation

    Most of every prompt is the same background. Build it once with projects, custom instructions, skills or custom GPTs, and reuse it.

  5. Mistake 5

    You picked one AI tool and stuck with it

    Claude, ChatGPT and Perplexity each have a sweet spot. Pick a primary tool, then learn when to hand a task to another one.

  6. Mistake 6

    You try to be a prompt engineer

    Ask the AI to write the prompt, and have it ask you clarifying questions first. Two minutes of Q&A up front saves an hour of weak output.

  7. Mistake 7

    You ship the first draft

    Saurav and James treat the first output as the floor. Revise the prompt as well as the output, and use what went wrong to see what the prompt was missing.
