Advanced prompting techniques:

• Prompt chaining: Start with a base prompt, refine through iterative follow-ups (e.g. “make it shorter”, “rewrite less formal”). Also used to repurpose content (e.g. turn a speech into a follow-up email).

• Quick probing replies: Use fast follow-ups like “argue the other side” or “what risks exist?” to deepen reasoning and expand creativity—your “cognitive trampoline.”

• Tree of Thoughts (ToT) prompting: Complex decision-making method involving generating multiple options, scoring them, and iterating. Best for big personal or strategic decisions.

• Megaprompting + meta-prompting: Mega = highly detailed, interactive prompts. Meta = ask AI to help write your mega prompt collaboratively. Time-consuming upfront, but saves time for large tasks (e.g. survey analysis, strategy planning).

Advanced AI chatbot features

Top 3 to use right now:

• Advanced Voice: use it to have a human-like, real time conversation with your AI chatbot. Try using it to talk through challenges, draft on-the-go, or rehearse difficult conversations.

• Notebooks (Google and MS Copilot only): a digital “binder” with many docs or sources that you can then chat with, learn from, analyze, synthesize. Great for learning or for querying a large number of docs.

• Copilot Pages or ChatGPT Canvas: a dedicated window on the right side of your screen with a substantial piece of content you’re creating. Allows you to more easily edit in line while also iterating with AI. Good for complex docs.

Other features to make use of:

• Advanced Reasoning Models: Use for complex tasks like onboarding plans or career development—more nuanced outputs.

• Advanced Research Models: Ideal for sourcing vendors, writing briefings, or digesting technical content.

• Connected apps: Access your desktop and drive docs from within your AI chatbot. Comes as standard with Enterprise Copilot and Gemini accounts.

• Memory: Use custom instructions to preserve tone, voice, and preferences.
