EP 607: How To Use Gems, GPTs & Projects...

Everyday AI
About this episode

You're probably opening a fresh chat in ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini—and that might be sabotaging your productivity.

Randomly starting conversations with no plan wastes time, fragments context, and lowers the quality of what you get from LLMs.

Learn the essentials of Gemini Gem, GPTs, and Projects—how they differ, when to use each, and how to structure prompts and workflows so AI actually speeds you up instead of slowing you down.
