Answering your questions about business and technology

Question

In ChatGPT and Perplexity, what is the difference between dictation and voice mode?~ Joe M.

The job market is tough right now.  Ironically, part of that is because of AI tools like NotebookLM.

You’ve got one brain.  All kinds of mushy human emotions.  A hundred open browser tabs (no judgment).  And an AI tool that keeps saying “as an AI language model” like it’s a personality trait.

I haven’t tried this so I can’t say how well it works.  It does sound interesting though…

Marketing doesn’t have to cost a fortune. Especially if you run a tiny team or solo venture.

It makes sense on paper - if you want to get better using a technology, focus on improving your technology skill-set(s).  

Ever spot a weird bug, a cool plant, or a colorful bird that looks like something out of a Harry Potter book and wish you knew what it was, without needing a degree in zoology and botany?

I like to use AI tools like Gemini, ChatGPT, etc. for tasks that I know how to do well.  Really well.

You know that feeling when you open ChatGPT……and then immediately forget why you did?

Or when you do remember, and you type what you think is a decent prompt.And it answers… sort of. Like it overheard your question from three rooms away.

If you’ve never heard of the Feynman Technique, it focuses on having you teach something simply (as if explaining it to a child) and identifying gaps in your knowledge.
