    Ep 91 - Revisiting the Basics: Getting More Out of ChatGPT

    Episode Summary In this solo walk-and-talk episode, host Cary Weston goes back to the basics of using ChatGPT, focusing on the evergreen principles that make the tool — and other AI assistants like Copilot, Claude, and Gemini — more effective. Cary explains that success with AI isn’t about memorizing prompts or clicking the right buttons, but about your mindset— how you communicate, guide, and collaborate with these tools. Using his four-part framework, he shows how treating ChatGPT like a smart intern helps unlock better results, deeper insights, and more creative conversations. 3 Key Takeaways Think of ChatGPT as your amazing intern. It’s capable, but it needs direction, context, and clarity to do great work. Use Cary’s four-part framework: What are we doing? Why are we doing it? What does success look like? Do you have any questions for me? Keep the conversation going. Don’t treat ChatGPT’s first answer as final — it’s a starting point. Use feedback, context, and natural conversation to guide it closer to what you want. Cary offers customized one-on-one ChatGPT training in 60 minute sessions.

    Ep 90 - How I'm Talking To PDFs And Getting Real Answers

    Episode Summary In this solo episode of The Chat GPT Experiment, host Cary Weston dives into a personal story of how he's using ChatGPT as a digital advocate to navigate a confusing and bureaucratic process. Cary is in the early stages of trying to build on a property near water, which involves dealing with complex municipal ordinances and slow communication from part-time local officials. To stay prepared and proactive, Cary created a ChatGPT project trained only on the local land use and shoreland zoning ordinances. This episode shows how ChatGPT can become a powerful assistant when you're dealing with legal or technical documents — especially when clarity is hard to come by. 3 Key Takeaways Projects in ChatGPT can be helpful By uploading specific documents and setting clear instructions, Cary created a focused assistant that only pulls information from verified sources. ChatGPT can be a digital advocate In situations where human help is slow or incomplete, ChatGPT can offer guidance, ask smart follow-ups, and even help you draft better questions — as long as it's trained with the right context. Cite your sources Cary emphasizes the importance of verifying ChatGPT’s responses by requiring it to cite the exact ordinance section, giving him confidence and clarity in his communications.

    Ep 89 - Murder Jury & ChatGPT

    Episode Summary In this solo episode, host Cary Weston reflects on his experience serving on a murder trial jury over 20 years ago and draws powerful connections between that experience and how we use ChatGPT today. With no prior legal background, Cary had to make sense of complex and unfamiliar information—an experience that mirrors what many people go through when trying to understand new technology or make decisions without enough context. Using that jury duty experience as a jumping-off point, Cary breaks down three ways ChatGPT can help users improve their communication and understanding: by addressing the curse of knowledge, seeing things from different points of view, and practicing tough conversations. Additional Resources: Episode 7 - Role Playing With ChatGPT Episode 10 - Mastering ChatGPT Prompting Episode 21 - How to Make ChatGPT Write Like You Episode 71 - ChatGPT The Amazing Intern Episode 85 - Simple Four Part Prompting Framework 3 Key Takeaways The Curse of Knowledge is Real: Just because something is basic to you doesn't mean it's basic to everyone. ChatGPT can help you break down complex ideas so they're easier to understand—especially for beginners or first-timers. Point of View Matters: Conversations get stuck when people can't see things from each other's perspective. ChatGPT can help you explore different points of view and better understand where someone else is coming from. Practice Makes Better: You can use ChatGPT to simulate and rehearse real-life conversations—whether it's a tough talk, a job interview, or a client pitch. With the right setup, it becomes a realistic practice partner. Cary offers customized one-on-one ChatGPT training in 60 minute sessions.

    Ep 88 - The Near Future Of Conversational Technology

    Episode Summary In this solo episode, host Cary Weston shares his vision for the future of "conversational technology"—a shift from static, click-based interfaces to dynamic, two-way conversations with the tools we use every day. From Netflix to online shopping to travel planning, Cary walks through everyday frustrations and shows how tools like ChatGPT offer the perfect practice ground for what's coming next. The episode is an eye-opener for anyone feeling overwhelmed or left behind by AI and makes a compelling case that you're not behind—you're right on time.   3 Key Takeaways The future is conversational: Apps will soon start engaging in two-way conversations—asking about your mood, preferences, or concerns before offering recommendations. Think Netflix that checks in before suggesting a movie. ChatGPT is your practice space: Talking to ChatGPT is great training for this future. Treat it like your “amazing intern”—not a tech tool. The more you practice, the better you’ll be at using these future tools. This isn’t a tech thing—it’s a human thing: Just like websites moved from being an IT task to a marketing must-have, AI belongs to all of us. Whether you're shopping, planning, or writing, tools like ChatGPT help you think clearer and decide better.

    Ep 87 - Using Projects in ChatGPT

    In this solo episode, Cary Weston dives into a feature in ChatGPT Projects to help help you get more from them. Designed for those with the paid version of ChatGPT, Projects offer a powerful way to build focused workspaces that combine instructions, uploaded files, and consistent interaction—all under one roof. Cary breaks down how to set them up, why they matter, and offers real-world tips to get the most out of them. If you've ever wished your AI assistant could be more consistent or better understand your voice and goals, this one's for you. Resources: Sample instructions doc Link to recent Markeing Projects Webinar    3 Key Takeaways Projects = Personalized Interns: Think of each Project as a hyper-focused digital assistant. The more specific you are with instructions and files, the more helpful and consistent the results. Instructions + Files = Power Combo: Use the “Instructions” tab like a job description. Then upload key documents (like tone of voice guides, templates, or customer profiles) to act as the Project’s knowledge base. Keep It Focused: Instead of one all-purpose project, create separate Projects for distinct tasks (like copywriting, editing, or customer service) to avoid confusion and boost results.

    Ep 86 - Replicating A Document With ChatGPT

    Episode Summary In this solo episode, host Cary Weston tackles a common question: How do I replicate a document, memo, or report using ChatGPT to save time and make the process easier? Cary shares real-world tips on how to reverse-engineer repetitive documents and set up a system with ChatGPT that can help you build those same documents faster in the future. Whether your data lives in meeting transcripts, other documents, or just in your head, Cary walks through how to create a repeatable template that ChatGPT can use again and again. 3 Key Takeaways Start with consistency: The more consistent your document layout and format, the easier it is for ChatGPT to reverse-engineer it into a repeatable template. Use the 4-part formula: Always tell ChatGPT (1) what you're doing, (2) why you're doing it, (3) what success looks like, and (4) ask if it has any questions. Let ChatGPT interview you: If the content lives in your head, use ChatGPT’s voice mode to speak your ideas out loud and let it organize your thoughts into a polished draft.
