Give Me 28 Minutes, I’ll Give You 10,000 Hours of ChatGPT Knowledge — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00So, look. If you're happy doing the same
- 0:02boring, repetitive tasks every day for
- 0:05the rest of your life, well, then you
- 0:06can click off right now because the next
- 0:0830 minutes are for people who want out
- 0:10of that. You see, most people use
- 0:12ChatGPT to plan their groceries or to be
- 0:15their therapist after 5 hours of
- 0:17doomscrolling on TikTok wondering why
- 0:19life is so tough. And look, if that's
- 0:21you, I hate to say it, but you're
- 0:23probably only using about 2% of what it
- 0:25can actually do. And that's not your
- 0:27fault. I mean, this thing doesn't come
- 0:28with an instruction manual. Now, if
- 0:30you're happy paying 100% of the price to
- 0:32use 2% of its features, well, then be my
- 0:35guest, but this video probably isn't for
- 0:37you because today I'm going to show you
- 0:39how to learn 98% of ChatGPT in the next
- 0:4220 to 30 minutes. I'm going to give you
- 0:43my favorite beginner, intermediate, and
- 0:46advanced tips that will help save you
- 0:48time and get ahead of 99% of people who
- 0:50pay to use it the wrong way. So, let's
- 0:53start nice and easy. You see, every
- 0:55single time that you open up ChatGPT and
- 0:58you ask it something, you're literally
- 1:00talking to a stranger. I'm not joking.
- 1:02You see, by default, ChatGPT knows
- 1:04nothing about you, nothing about your
- 1:05job, what you do, how you like things
- 1:08explained, what you don't like,
- 1:10literally [music] nothing. So, imagine
- 1:12you hire a personal assistant. This is
- 1:14the smartest person you've ever met, and
- 1:16they could help you with almost
- 1:17anything, but every morning they wake up
- 1:20and forget everything about you, who you
- 1:22are, what you do, how you want things
- 1:24done. Look, you wouldn't want that. It
- 1:25would drive you insane, right? And yet,
- 1:27that's exactly what most people do when
- 1:29they use ChatGPT. They open it, they hit
- 1:31a new chat, and they start from scratch
- 1:33every single time. Now, what if I told
- 1:35you there was actually a setting in here
- 1:37that changes all of that, and it only
- 1:39takes about 1 minute to fix this? Well,
- 1:41congratulations because it exists, and
- 1:43it's actually called custom
- 1:44instructions. Here is where you find it.
- 1:46You're going to go to settings, then
- 1:47you're going to go to personalization,
- 1:49and in there you're actually going to
- 1:50see the custom instructions right there.
- 1:52Inside of it, add what you want ChatGPT
- 1:54to know about you. Tell it who you are,
- 1:56what you do for work, what you're trying
- 1:58to get done, and anything else that
- 2:00helps it understand the context. And
- 2:02then, tell it how you want it to
- 2:04respond. The more specific you can be
- 2:06here, the better your outputs are going
- 2:09to be. Do you want short, direct
- 2:11answers, or do you want it to explain
- 2:12its thinking? Do you want a certain
- 2:14tone? And just as important, what do you
- 2:17want it to avoid? Now, look, I know that
- 2:19sitting there trying to write all of
- 2:20this from scratch is a lot. So, what
- 2:22I've gone ahead and done is I've
- 2:24actually added my prompt that I use
- 2:25below this video. I actually use this to
- 2:27set up my own ChatGPT. It interviews you
- 2:30one question at a time, and [music] it
- 2:32actually hands you back exactly what to
- 2:34paste into that box. So, it's in the
- 2:35description section below. I want to
- 2:37say, I know that this is tedious work,
- 2:39but trust me, once it's done, it's out
- 2:41of the way, and you will thank me later
- 2:43for showing you this hidden feature.
- 2:45Now, once you've done that, there is
- 2:47actually a second layer sitting right
- 2:49next to it that you also may have missed
- 2:51as well. And people mix these two
- 2:52[music] up all the time. So, I want to
- 2:54make the difference clear inside of this
- 2:55video. Custom instructions are what you
- 2:58tell it once, and whatever you add there
- 3:00stays there unless you go back in and
- 3:02actually change it. Memory is different.
- 3:04Memory is actually what it picks up over
- 3:06time, the more that you actually use it.
- 3:08I want you to think about it like this.
- 3:09Custom instructions is like giving
- 3:11someone you work with a one-page brief
- 3:13on day one. Here's who I am, here's what
- 3:15I need, here's how I like things done.
- 3:17It's as applicable on day 100 as it is
- 3:20on day one. Memory is actually what
- 3:22happens from that point on. It's every
- 3:24conversation, it's every project, it's
- 3:26every time [music]
- 3:27that you corrected it. Every time you
- 3:29said, "No, not like that. Like this
- 3:31instead." It's basically like you
- 3:32training your ChatGPT. And with this
- 3:34feature, it only gets better over time.
- 3:36But here's the weird part, though. Most
- 3:38people never even bother to turn the
- 3:41memory feature on, which is absolutely
- 3:43insane to me, because why not make your
- 3:45ChatGPT better and stronger every single
- 3:47day? It's like hiring someone knowing
- 3:49that they will never get better at what
- 3:51they do. It makes no sense. So, here is
- 3:54how to activate the memory feature.
- 3:55You're going to go to settings, then
- 3:56you're going to go to personalization.
- 3:58Inside of it, you're going to see memory
- 4:00sitting right there underneath the
- 4:01custom instructions. Please make sure
- 4:03it's switched on. And there's actually
- 4:05quite a cool feature here as well. If
- 4:06you're curious or you ever want to see
- 4:08exactly what it's picked up about you,
- 4:10you can actually go to manage memories
- 4:12and it's all there. And if something's
- 4:13ever wrong, the cool part is is that you
- 4:15can manually go in and edit it yourself.
- 4:17But, people have a big misconception
- 4:19with this. They think that ChatGPT only
- 4:21gets better when OpenAI actually updates
- 4:23their models. And sure, that's partly
- 4:25true, but sometimes it's also true that
- 4:26it gets worse. We've all been there.
- 4:28They've updated a new model and we're
- 4:29like, "This was so good last week. Why
- 4:31did we ruin it?" But my point is is that
- 4:32this is actually another way that you
- 4:34can upgrade your ChatGPT. It's a mini
- 4:36upgrade, if you will. Okay? With this
- 4:38feature, you are training your ChatGPT
- 4:40to slowly learn how you think. Now,
- 4:42sure, it's not the most groundbreaking
- 4:43feature I'm going to share here today,
- 4:45but it's easy to set up and it will make
- 4:47your experience 10 times better. So,
- 4:48with that said, let's move on to
- 4:50probably one of my favorite tips in
- 4:52today's video. Tip three is devil's
- 4:53advocate. Now, this last beginner tip
- 4:55will pretty much go against everything
- 4:57that every other video tells you to do,
- 4:59or better yet, just forgets to tell you
- 5:00to do. It's what I call devil's
- 5:02advocate. And honestly, this is one of
- 5:04the most important beginner tips. Let me
- 5:06ask you a question. Have you ever used
- 5:07ChatGPT and felt like it's just agreeing
- 5:09with everything that you say? You're
- 5:10going to type in, "Am I right in
- 5:12thinking that the world is flat?" And
- 5:13it's going to find a hundred ways to
- 5:15agree with [music] you. Look, I've been
- 5:16there before. And that's why for this
- 5:18final tip, I want you to force your
- 5:19ChatGPT to disagree with you. Force it
- 5:22to play devil's advocate. You see, most
- 5:24people are using ChatGPT for validation,
- 5:27to stroke their ego. As I said, you
- 5:28could type in the most egregious
- 5:30question and ChatGPT will still find a
- 5:32way to go, "Yes, you're absolutely
- 5:34right. That was a great question." And
- 5:36look, if you think about it, the reason
- 5:37it does this makes total sense, okay?
- 5:39OpenAI is a business and just like any
- 5:42other good business, what is their
- 5:44number one main objective? It was built
- 5:46to agree with you, to keep you happy, so
- 5:48that way you keep coming back. But,
- 5:50that's also dangerous, which is why if
- 5:52you don't know what you are doing,
- 5:53ChatGPT is just going to run laps around
- 5:56you. And if you use AI just to agree
- 5:58with everything that you already think,
- 6:00well then you're just training yourself
- 6:01to trust [music] it without any filter,
- 6:03which is exactly what I want you to
- 6:06avoid. You still [music] need to be the
- 6:07person steering the ship, the one in
- 6:09control. Look, I'm going to give you an
- 6:11example of this. One of the questions
- 6:13that I always ask my team here at our
- 6:15company consultant.com is, "What are my
- 6:17blind spots? What am I missing in the
- 6:19situation?" Now, you might be wondering,
- 6:21"Okay, why do you like to ask your team
- 6:22these questions?" Because I know that
- 6:24sometimes I don't have the full picture.
- 6:26So, before you ask ChatGPT anything
- 6:28important, tell it what to do. Tell it
- 6:31to tell you your blind spots. Tell it to
- 6:33play devil's advocate. Don't just ask a
- 6:35question hoping they will give you the
- 6:37answer that you want it to give you. You
- 6:39can explicitly say things like, "Don't
- 6:41agree with me, play devil's advocate,
- 6:43challenge my thinking," or things like,
- 6:45"Give me the strongest possible case for
- 6:47why I could actually be wrong." And
- 6:49look, when you do this, you go from
- 6:50speaking to a yes man to someone who's
- 6:52actually going to challenge your
- 6:53viewpoints and your worldview, so that
- 6:55way you can make better decisions and
- 6:57make much more well-rounded conclusions.
- 6:59And by the way, while we're on this
- 7:00topic, one more thing I want you to be
- 7:02aware of. ChatGPT is known for
- 7:05hallucinating. [music] It will
- 7:06occasionally get things wrong with 100%
- 7:08complete confidence. But, the problem
- 7:10is, how do you know when it's
- 7:11hallucinating? You don't, which is why
- 7:13you have to be hyper aware of this. So,
- 7:15here's a system that I have personally
- 7:17developed to help me detect when my
- 7:19ChatGPT is hallucinating. At the start
- 7:21of any chat before I do anything else, I
- 7:23will always tell it to refer to me by my
- 7:25first name. Then, if it ever answers
- 7:27questions without, "Great question,
- 7:29Eman," for example, then that is a sign
- 7:31that it's probably losing the plot. At
- 7:33that point, I'm actually going to stop
- 7:35and double-check all the information
- 7:36that it gave me, and that is how I keep
- 7:38it in check. All right, there we go. So,
- 7:40with all that being said, that is the
- 7:42beginner tips done. Most of them, once
- 7:44you sit down and do it, are pretty
- 7:46simple. You've got custom instructions,
- 7:48memory, keeping your chats organized,
- 7:50and forcing it to play devil's advocate.
- 7:52Those are the foundations. Now, we're
- 7:54stepping it up a notch with the
- 7:56intermediate tips. So, now that we know
- 7:58how to get ChatGPT to understand us
- 7:59better, let's look at how we can
- 8:01actually understand ChatGPT better. You
- 8:03see, ChatGPT isn't just a tool. It's
- 8:05really a stack of different modes, where
- 8:07each mode serves a different purpose.
- 8:09And understanding what modes are best
- 8:11for each task is what will get you
- 8:13closer to learning 98% of ChatGPT.
- 8:15Knowing this alone can put you ahead of
- 8:1898% of people, because most people are
- 8:20not switching modes. They are just using
- 8:23the standard mode for every task. There
- 8:25are actually six modes that I want you
- 8:27to pay close attention to. There's voice
- 8:29mode, canvas mode, study mode, agent
- 8:31mode, image mode, and deep research
- 8:33mode. But, before we continue, I could
- 8:36sit here and give you all the tips and
- 8:37the tricks in the world, but what's the
- 8:39point if you haven't got a way to take
- 8:40advantage of it? So, today, I'm going to
- 8:42give away another MacBook. To win the
- 8:44MacBook, all you have to do is watch the
- 8:46rest of the video and let me know which
- 8:48tip did you find most useful. And by the
- 8:50way, if your comment is an AI comment,
- 8:52trust me, I can tell, you will not be
- 8:54selected. So, watch the rest of the
- 8:55video, leave your favorite tip and why
- 8:57was your favorite tip, as well as leave
- 8:58a like, and that's all you have to do.
- 9:00I'm going to pick a winner and post it
- 9:01as a pinned comment and in the
- 9:03description of next week's video. Oh,
- 9:05and by the way, the winner from last
- 9:06video is actually in the pinned comments
- 9:08below, along with instructions on how to
- 9:10claim it. So, with that being said,
- 9:11let's actually start with the first
- 9:13intermediate tip. This is one that fixes
- 9:14something that's been a real pain for
- 9:16you in the past. You see, you ask
- 9:17ChatGPT for something and it comes back
- 9:19with something close to what you wanted,
- 9:21but not quite there. Maybe one paragraph
- 9:24needs a little bit of work, maybe the
- 9:25tone is slightly off in one or two
- 9:27sections, and normally, what would you
- 9:29do in this situation? Well, just like
- 9:31most people, you're probably going to
- 9:32spend time retyping the whole thing,
- 9:34hoping that it fixes just that one bit.
- 9:36And half the time, it changes another
- 9:38section that you were actually happy
- 9:39with. And look, I know how annoying that
- 9:41is because it's happened to me so many
- 9:43times. And look, I don't think I'm the
- 9:44only one, right? You see, that was until
- 9:47I found this small feature called canvas
- 9:49mode. It works just like, I guess you
- 9:51would say an artist canvas does, which
- 9:52[music] is you're not trying to finish
- 9:54the painting, but you're focusing on the
- 9:56place where you can shape the work to
- 9:57your liking. What it does is that
- 9:59actually opens up an additional editing
- 10:01workspace right next to your chat. And
- 10:02instead of just getting a wall of text
- 10:04back, you can actually get something
- 10:05that you can work with directly. You can
- 10:07refine and tweak as you like. You can
- 10:09highlight the bits that you want
- 10:10changed. You can ask for just that
- 10:11section to be rewritten. You can adjust
- 10:13the tone. And it only touches the bits
- 10:16that you ask it to amend. Everything
- 10:18else can be kept the same. Now, once
- 10:19you've actually used this a couple of
- 10:20times, going back to the old way of just
- 10:22retyping the whole thing is going to
- 10:24feel absolutely absurd. Trust me, you
- 10:26will never do that again. The problem is
- 10:28most people don't even know that this
- 10:29mode exists. And that's why they only
- 10:31end up using 2% of what ChatGPT actually
- 10:34has to offer. Now, speaking about
- 10:36getting more out of ChatGPT, here's one
- 10:38that might actually remind you of your
- 10:39time at school. Einstein once said
- 10:41something along the lines of education
- 10:43is actually what remains after one has
- 10:45forgotten what they actually learned in
- 10:47school. Look, I never even finished high
- 10:48school, but I would say that I've
- 10:49learned a lot in my life.
- 10:51>> [clears throat]
- 10:51>> And that's the point. Real learning
- 10:52isn't what you can repeat the day after
- 10:54you read it. It's what's still in your
- 10:56head weeks or even years after you've
- 10:58learned it. Look, do you know that
- 10:59feeling where you read something or
- 11:01maybe you watch a video and you walk
- 11:02away thinking, "Yeah, I I I get that."
- 11:05Then someone actually asks you question
- 11:06about it and you realize that you only
- 11:08understood half of it. That is the
- 11:10difference between feeling like you know
- 11:11something and actually knowing it. And
- 11:13that is exactly what study mode allows
- 11:16you to do. If you're learning a new
- 11:17topic, you can actually ask study mode
- 11:20to actually give you a breakdown of that
- 11:21topic and then it will test you on it.
- 11:23It's actually going to give you some
- 11:24multiple choice questions to test if you
- 11:26really understood the topic. Look, this
- 11:28one reminds me of being back at school
- 11:29taking an exam. Not something that I
- 11:31would say I particularly miss, but
- 11:33definitely a useful tool that you can
- 11:35use to make sure that you speed up your
- 11:37learning process. I don't use this
- 11:38feature too much, but when I really want
- 11:40to learn something quickly and make sure
- 11:42that it sticks, then this is the first
- 11:44thing I go to. So, to actually activate
- 11:46this mode, all you have to do is click
- 11:47the plus button, type in @study, and
- 11:50then select the study mode. Then,
- 11:51literally paste in whatever it is that
- 11:53you're trying to learn, and it will take
- 11:54it from there. All right, so next up is
- 11:56image generation. If you saw my Claude
- 11:58video, maybe you remember me saying that
- 12:00image generation was actually one of its
- 12:02weak spots, whereas with ChatGPT, it's
- 12:04one of its biggest strengths. So, I
- 12:05actually asked it to create an image of
- 12:07me, Iman Gadzhi, drinking coffee just to
- 12:09see what it would do, and the output
- 12:10actually kind of surprised me. It looks
- 12:12like me, and I actually get my editors
- 12:14to throw it up on screen. Now, to use
- 12:16it, here's what you're going to do.
- 12:17You're going to describe exactly what
- 12:18you want. And then look, if it gets
- 12:20close, but something's slightly off, you
- 12:22don't need to start over. Just tell it
- 12:24what to change in the same chat, similar
- 12:26to what I showed you with canvas mode,
- 12:28and you can actually also upload your
- 12:30own photo and have it edited from that.
- 12:32Now look, to be honest, I don't use it
- 12:33too much. Well, when I was doing the
- 12:34interior design for our office, I
- 12:36actually did use it for that function,
- 12:37but in general, I'm not really sitting
- 12:39here creating images all day. And
- 12:41honestly, my designers have told me that
- 12:43it's not really replacing their design
- 12:44work, either. But for the average person
- 12:47who just needs some quick images here
- 12:48and there, it actually does the job
- 12:50quite well. Now, the last three modes,
- 12:52which was canvas, study, and image, are
- 12:54quite straightforward, because you can
- 12:56use them easily without changing your
- 12:57settings. This next one is a small step
- 13:00up, which is actually why I left it for
- 13:02a little bit later on in the
- 13:03intermediate category, but trust me,
- 13:06it's worth it, because it completely
- 13:07changes how you do work. Look, if you're
- 13:09anything like me, you hate typing, okay?
- 13:11I hate it with a passion. My team knows
- 13:13it. I would rather just get on the
- 13:14phone, or even better, send a voice
- 13:16note. So, if you're anything like me, I
- 13:17have some good news for you. ChatGPT
- 13:19actually has a voice mode, and it is a
- 13:21game-changer. But let me tell you where
- 13:23this has actually come in clutch for me.
- 13:25I do this thing called Russian banya
- 13:26every Sunday night. It's my Sunday night
- 13:28ritual. I book out the whole place and
- 13:30what I do is I sit there, I sweat it
- 13:32out, I clear my mind and normally that's
- 13:34a couple hours where my phone is in my
- 13:36locker and my brain is just switched
- 13:37off. But a couple months back, I decided
- 13:39to try something out. I had my AirPods
- 13:41in, ChatGPT voice mode on and instead of
- 13:43just sitting there in silence, you know,
- 13:44once I was actually outside the sauna, I
- 13:46started talking to it, okay? I had a
- 13:48full-blown back and forth convo with it
- 13:51about a specific business problem that I
- 13:52was having. And I actually ended up
- 13:53having a very similar conversation to
- 13:55what I would have with my own COO. And
- 13:57that's really when I realized that
- 13:58ChatGPT isn't just a typing tool. I can
- 14:01actually use it in times where I would
- 14:03just be ruminating about stuff in my
- 14:04head, on a drive, walking, waiting for a
- 14:07coffee. If you set this thing up
- 14:08properly, it gets even better. What
- 14:10you're going to do is you're going to
- 14:11pick one device as your main hub and
- 14:13that is where all of your core work
- 14:16lives. Then, you're going to install the
- 14:17ChatGPT app on your other devices. So,
- 14:19maybe if you have another phone or a
- 14:21laptop or iPad, then you're going to go
- 14:23into settings and set up connections.
- 14:25Inside of here, you're going to connect
- 14:26your apps and devices so everything can
- 14:28talk to each other. Now, wherever you
- 14:30are, you can actually turn on voice
- 14:32mode, you can brief it on where your
- 14:34projects are at and you can actually ask
- 14:36it for next steps and talk through the
- 14:38work in real time. And what's super cool
- 14:40is that if you ever need to draft
- 14:41something, let's say you need to
- 14:42organize a file or maybe update a doc
- 14:44and then email it to someone, well then
- 14:46you can just say it out loud and it will
- 14:47do it for you on your main device. And
- 14:49I'll come back to that in just a second.
- 14:50But here's an insane part about this.
- 14:53And you know what, in all fairness,
- 14:54maybe I should have put this in the
- 14:55advanced section, but whatever, I'll
- 14:56mention it now cuz we're discussing it.
- 14:58There's actually an advanced version
- 14:59[clears throat] of this that lets you
- 15:00share your screen or camera in real
- 15:02time. Meaning, you can literally say
- 15:04that you are stuck on something, like
- 15:06let's say a spreadsheet or whatever, and
- 15:08share it directly and just say, "Here's
- 15:09where I'm stuck, what should I do?" And
- 15:11it can see what you are seeing and talk
- 15:13you through the fix step by step instead
- 15:15of you having to spend time describing
- 15:17the problem or even worse, having to
- 15:19type it in. Oh, and by the way, there's
- 15:20actually one more thing worth setting up
- 15:22here. If you've got a compatible Apple
- 15:24device, you can actually turn on your
- 15:25Siri, which is normally pretty useless,
- 15:27let's be honest, and you can turn it
- 15:28into ChatGPT via Apple intelligence,
- 15:30meaning you get actual answers instead
- 15:33of Siri just giving you the top results
- 15:35of a web search. That means you can ask
- 15:36it more complex stuff, not just timers
- 15:39and weather. And that means that you get
- 15:41one consistent assistant [music]
- 15:43across your phone instead of trying to
- 15:44bounce between Siri for basic things and
- 15:47then ChatGPT for everything else. This
- 15:49is so cool because you can literally
- 15:51work from anywhere after you set this
- 15:53up. Now, you know that whole connection
- 15:55setting that we just set up for the
- 15:56voice mode. Well, that actually leads me
- 15:58onto the next tip. I want you to think
- 16:00about when you first got your
- 16:01smartphone. Whatever you needed to do,
- 16:03well, there was an app for it. To check
- 16:05the weather, you would just download
- 16:06your favorite weather app on your phone,
- 16:08or to book a flight, you would just
- 16:09download another app for this, for
- 16:11music, another one. And what happened is
- 16:13that with time, your whole phone slowly
- 16:15started turning into this home screen of
- 16:18tiny little tools, each one of them
- 16:20doing their own separate job. And I'm
- 16:21sure that if you don't live under a
- 16:22rock, that's still how you do things
- 16:24now. What if I told you ChatGPT has its
- 16:27own version of this? It actually has its
- 16:29own inbuilt app store. And what if I
- 16:30told you that most people never even
- 16:32knew it existed or how to use it. So,
- 16:34instead of downloading separate apps for
- 16:36everything, you can just connect them
- 16:37straight into your ChatGPT. And the even
- 16:39better news is this. Once they're
- 16:41connected, ChatGPT can do the work
- 16:43inside of those apps for you, as I
- 16:45mentioned in the previous tip that I
- 16:47gave you. Let's say you need an email
- 16:48sent. Let's say you need to check your
- 16:50calendar. Let's say you need to book a
- 16:51flight. Well, congratulations because
- 16:53ChatGPT can do all of that for you. That
- 16:55is your first step in having your own
- 16:57personal assistant. Look, I'm sure that
- 16:59every single person who's watching this
- 17:00channel, especially if you've been
- 17:01watching for a few years, will get to
- 17:03the point where you are incredibly
- 17:05successful and you hire a personal
- 17:07assistant. And by the way, I can tell
- 17:08you that once you get there, it is
- 17:09honestly one of the best ways that you
- 17:11can spend money in your life. But, until
- 17:13you do, you can start here, okay? You
- 17:16don't have to go spend 50 or 100 grand a
- 17:18year on an EA or a PA. All you need to
- 17:20do for now is just connect the right
- 17:23apps. On the left sidebar, click on
- 17:25plugins and connect any apps that you
- 17:27want to. The first two that I would set
- 17:29up are Gmail and Google Calendar. That's
- 17:31a pretty good starting point. Now look,
- 17:33I'll be honest, I'm not really a morning
- 17:34person. I never have been, I never will.
- 17:36So the first 30 minutes of every single
- 17:38day, my brain is not fully awake yet.
- 17:40And the last thing I want to do is open
- 17:42up my inbox and get hit with 50 emails
- 17:45before I've even had a coffee. So,
- 17:47here's what I do. I ask ChatGPT to
- 17:49summarize everything that came in
- 17:50overnight, and then I ask it to filter
- 17:53out what needs a reply today, what can
- 17:55wait, and so on. And by the time I am
- 17:57fully awake, I've already removed all of
- 18:00the unnecessary clutter. Same thing with
- 18:01my calendar, by the way. I ask it where
- 18:04the gaps are in the week, so that way I
- 18:05don't need to think about where I can
- 18:06squeeze in a tennis session or some
- 18:08boxing. And by the way, it gets even
- 18:10better. There are some extra apps as
- 18:12well. If you like music while you work,
- 18:13you can actually connect your Spotify. I
- 18:15like listening to Brain.fm, so I get it
- 18:17to play some of that. There's even
- 18:18Booking.com there. Yes, it can actually
- 18:21help you look at flights and hotels,
- 18:22too. The point is, ChatGPT doesn't need
- 18:24to be just you asking it questions. It
- 18:27can actually get stuff done for you. And
- 18:29hold onto this, because later in this
- 18:30video, I'm actually going to show you
- 18:31how this will connect in advanced it. So
- 18:33I'm going to share that with you in just
- 18:34a little bit. For now, what you need to
- 18:36understand is that once these apps are
- 18:38connected here, ChatGPT can actually go
- 18:40and use them for you. You see, now that
- 18:42you've got your apps connected, here's
- 18:44another cool use of it. Schedule tasks.
- 18:47Look, if you feel like you have a lot on
- 18:48your plate and you want to be more
- 18:49efficient, this is a great one. This is
- 18:52where you give ChatGPT the power to do
- 18:54stuff for you when you want it to. It's
- 18:56funny, because I used it for this very
- 18:58video. You see, every week, or at least
- 19:00I try my best every week, I put out a
- 19:02new YouTube video, exactly like the one
- 19:04you're seeing here right now. And every
- 19:05week, the video needs to be posted on
- 19:07time. Now, do I want to rely on my
- 19:09memory for that and remember to do this
- 19:10myself every week? Absolutely not. Do I
- 19:12want to chase someone else down every
- 19:14single week and remind them? Even worse.
- 19:16So, I literally have a scheduled task
- 19:18for this. What it does is it
- 19:19automatically sends a message to my head
- 19:21designer every week reminding him that
- 19:23the video needs to go up. I don't write
- 19:24it every time. I don't think about it
- 19:26every week. I set it once and now it
- 19:28turns into a background task for me. And
- 19:30that's why I love this feature. It's
- 19:32leverage. [music] You set it once and it
- 19:34keeps working for you without you having
- 19:36to carry around all these thoughts in
- 19:37your head. Now, you might be asking
- 19:39yourself, "Well, he man, how do I know
- 19:40which task should be scheduled and which
- 19:43one shouldn't?" Well, the way you should
- 19:44think about it is this. Anything that is
- 19:46monotonous should be automated. If
- 19:48something happens on a schedule, it
- 19:50should be scheduled. But, you also don't
- 19:52want to schedule your whole life away,
- 19:53okay? You need to be intentional about
- 19:55it. For example, I wouldn't schedule it
- 19:57to send me some random motivational
- 19:59quote every morning. Sure, I guess
- 20:00that's cute, but it's not actually doing
- 20:02anything for me. Also, I wouldn't get it
- 20:04to book a table for me for a one-time
- 20:06dinner on a random Thursday. So, to
- 20:08actually set it up, what you're going to
- 20:10do is you're going to go to the
- 20:10scheduled on the left sidebar and it's
- 20:13probably going to give you some options
- 20:14to get started. You're going to pick the
- 20:16date and the time and you're going to
- 20:17tell it exactly what you want it to do.
- 20:19Now, it could be a reminder to someone
- 20:21on your team. It could be a weekly
- 20:22check-in on a project or anything else
- 20:24that you find yourself doing over and
- 20:26over again. And then, once it's set, you
- 20:29don't have to think about it again. Now,
- 20:30before we get to tip number 10, I'm
- 20:32going to be very honest with you. If
- 20:34you're someone who's got all the time in
- 20:35the world to waste, well, then this tip
- 20:37isn't for you. You can skip to the next
- 20:38one. But, if you're someone who never
- 20:40has enough time in the day or you're
- 20:42like me and you need to learn something,
- 20:43[music]
- 20:44but you're too impatient {slash} maybe
- 20:46sometimes lazy to dig through 50
- 20:48different articles or documentaries
- 20:50before getting an answer, well, then
- 20:51congratulations, this one is for you.
- 20:53It's called deep research mode. And the
- 20:54name kind of says it all. You're going
- 20:56to give it a proper research question,
- 20:57not some throwaway one-liner. A question
- 21:00that you need a real detailed answer to.
- 21:02Then, it goes to work. It searches, it
- 21:05reads, it cross-references different
- 21:07sources, and a few minutes later, it
- 21:09comes back with a structured report.
- 21:10Now, I actually use this a lot, by the
- 21:12way, and it's actually part of the
- 21:13reason that this very video exists. You
- 21:15see, every few weeks, I like to
- 21:17understand what is actually working on
- 21:19this channel. What is it that you guys
- 21:21are enjoying, and what are you guys
- 21:22enjoying on other channels? What kind of
- 21:23content that I'm putting out do you
- 21:25like, and what do you find useful to
- 21:27you? AI content seems to be resonating
- 21:29right now, but I'm also looking for what
- 21:32other creators are covering that [music]
- 21:33we haven't touched yet. As well as where
- 21:35the gaps are. So, I gave Deep Research
- 21:38that exact task. I told it to go look
- 21:40into how AI content is performing across
- 21:42YouTube right now, what themes keep
- 21:44coming up, what audiences are asking
- 21:46for, and what's not being covered well.
- 21:48[music] And then, a few minutes later,
- 21:50it came back with a full breakdown. And
- 21:52that's actually part of what shaped this
- 21:54video. I also gave it some data on my
- 21:56channel, and I saw that the feedback on
- 21:58the Claude video a few weeks [music] ago
- 21:59was insane. Now, look, I'll be honest,
- 22:01could I have done that manually?
- 22:03Absolutely, but that would have taken
- 22:04hours of [music] me scrolling through
- 22:05channels, comments, trying to spot
- 22:07stuff. Whereas, with this mode, it did
- 22:10all of that for me in a few minutes. So,
- 22:11is this something that you absolutely
- 22:13100% need? Not really. But, is this
- 22:15something that will 10x your [music]
- 22:16efficiency, especially if a lot of your
- 22:18decisions rely on you doing research?
- 22:21100%. So, to use it, it's actually quite
- 22:23simple. All you have to do is click the
- 22:24plus button next to where you normally
- 22:26[music] type your message. You're going
- 22:27to select Deep Research and give it a
- 22:29specific question. The more specific the
- 22:31question, the better. Remember, this is
- 22:33not for quick questions. Save this one
- 22:35for the stuff where you would have to do
- 22:36a lot of research. There we have it, the
- 22:38six ChatGPT modes. Now,
- 22:40>> [music]
- 22:40>> there's one final mode I haven't spoken
- 22:42about yet, and there's a reason for it.
- 22:44You see, the intermediate modes that
- 22:45we've covered so far are quite
- 22:46straightforward. This last one is a
- 22:48little bit more advanced, so please
- 22:50don't worry about this if you're just
- 22:51getting started. Focus on the beginner
- 22:53and intermediate ones at first. They
- 22:55should give you a massive advantage over
- 22:5795% of people. Now, before we get into
- 23:00it, one last thing. Everything that
- 23:02we've covered today is going to save you
- 23:03a load of time. Excuse my French. But,
- 23:06if you're the type of person who wants
- 23:07to use that time to build something on
- 23:09the side, build a side income, build
- 23:11something profitable, something that
- 23:13doesn't require you to quit your job or
- 23:14go all in and sacrifice everything.
- 23:17Well, then I want to invite you to my
- 23:18online event, Side Hustle Summit. It's
- 23:20100% free. I'm hosting it from September
- 23:226th to September 13th, and I'm going to
- 23:25show you the exact steps [music]
- 23:26to build a profitable side hustle. I'm
- 23:28going to leave a link to that in the
- 23:30description. All right, back to the
- 23:31tips. If you're a bit more familiar with
- 23:33ChatGPT, I actually want to take things
- 23:35up to the next level. Here's how. You
- 23:36see this last mode is the closest thing
- 23:39to having ChatGPT as your personal
- 23:41assistant. This is where you give
- 23:43ChatGPT full autonomy of your screen, so
- 23:45that way it can actually go ahead and do
- 23:47things for you. I want you to think
- 23:49about that one annoying task that is a
- 23:51pain in the ass every single day. It's
- 23:52not the hardest task, but it's
- 23:54repetitive. It's filling out the same
- 23:56repetitive form for the 10th time this
- 23:58month. It's comparing flight prices
- 24:00between different sites to check which
- 24:01one is ripping you off the least. Those
- 24:03are all things that agent mode can do
- 24:05for you. All you have to do is give it
- 24:07some instructions, like find me the
- 24:09three best reviewed hotels in Lisbon
- 24:11under $200 a night with a pool. And
- 24:14there we go. It goes off, it opens a
- 24:16browser, and navigates through different
- 24:17websites, and it comes back with the
- 24:19best options for you. Now, do you
- 24:21remember that tip where I showed you how
- 24:23to connect different apps within your
- 24:24ChatGPT, and how it's kind of like
- 24:26you're having your own app store within
- 24:28chat? Well, once you have those apps
- 24:29connected, things like your Gmail and
- 24:31your calendar, you can actually use
- 24:33agent mode to then do stuff for you
- 24:35within those [music] places. As in just
- 24:36you understand, it can literally do
- 24:39things inside of the apps that you've
- 24:40connected. And sure, the average person
- 24:42might know that they can actually ask
- 24:44ChatGPT to go find some good hotels in
- 24:46Greece, but I want you to take it a step
- 24:48further. With this mode, you're going to
- 24:50go from, "Hey, go find me some good
- 24:51hotels." to, "Go find me some hotels,
- 24:54then check my calendar to check when I'm
- 24:55actually free, and then book it in for
- 24:58me, and draft me an email to confirm
- 25:00this. All of that in one go because
- 25:02everything's connected. Do you see how
- 25:04when you do this over a long period of
- 25:06time, you are going to end up running
- 25:08laps around everyone else simply because
- 25:11you're going to be 10 times more
- 25:12efficient than them. Now, here's the
- 25:13important thing though. With this mode,
- 25:15I want you to still be the one in
- 25:17control. ChatGPT is not going to go and
- 25:19book something or buy something or
- 25:21submit a form without checking in with
- 25:23you first. You will always have the
- 25:25final approval. Anytime it's going to do
- 25:26something that commits you, for example,
- 25:28like spending money or sending something
- 25:30or confirming a booking, it will ask you
- 25:32first. You're going to then sign off on
- 25:34it. All it is doing is just the boring
- 25:36legwork on your behalf. I hope you
- 25:38understand how this also gives you more
- 25:40time to make a better decisions because
- 25:42you don't need to do the repetitive
- 25:43work. So, to activate agent mode, here's
- 25:46what you do. And then all you have to do
- 25:48is literally just tell it what you want
- 25:49it to do, and it will take it from
- 25:51there. A real quick, just one practical
- 25:53tip though. Before you run any task, I
- 25:56want you to make sure that you close out
- 25:57any tabs with sensitive info. I'm
- 25:59talking about banking, personal
- 26:00accounts, anything that you just
- 26:02wouldn't want it near, just in case. I
- 26:04would also recommend that you actually
- 26:05start with something that's low stakes.
- 26:07So, that way you can kind of get a feel
- 26:08for how it works. There you have it. My
- 26:10top tips for learning 98% of ChatGPT in
- 26:13under 30 minutes. Just by knowing what I
- 26:15gave you today, you are already ahead of
- 26:1895% of people. Look, ChatGPT is a great
- 26:20all-round tool. It can write, it can
- 26:22plan, it can organize, it can even take
- 26:24actions for you. It is useful, no doubt.
- 26:27It's the same thing I saw with Claude.
- 26:28Every tool has their strengths and
- 26:30limits. For example, Claude wasn't
- 26:32really good at image generation, and
- 26:33ChatGPT hallucinates. It's just what
- 26:35happens when something is built to do
- 26:37100 things well instead of one thing
- 26:39exceptionally well. It's kind of like
- 26:41hiring. A generalist employee [music] is
- 26:43useful. Okay, you can hand them many
- 26:45different tasks, and they will get most
- 26:47of them done to a pretty decent level,
- 26:49but they're never going to be
- 26:50spectacular. For that, you would need to
- 26:53go find a specialist. Or think of a
- 26:54doctor, if you needed to get brain
- 26:56surgery done, would you want a general
- 26:58practitioner to handle it? Or would you
- 27:01want a brain surgeon? Well, the exact
- 27:02same thing applies to AI tools. The
- 27:05point is, it's not about which tool is
- 27:07the best. It's about which one is the
- 27:08best for what you are trying to do. And
- 27:10the more specific the task or outcome
- 27:13gets, the more nuance there is, which is
- 27:15typically [music]
- 27:16what tools like ChatGPT struggle with.
- 27:18Think about specific tasks like make
- 27:20$10,000 a month online, or how to solve
- 27:22this one specific problem for a specific
- 27:24person or business. Try using ChatGPT
- 27:27for that, and let me know how it goes.
- 27:28Let's say when it comes to something
- 27:29ultra specific like making $10,000 a
- 27:32month with a marketing agency, for
- 27:33example. There are direct ways to make
- 27:35money, and there are indirect ways. A
- 27:37direct way would be something that
- 27:38identifies specific businesses that need
- 27:41help with their marketing, and helps you
- 27:43build the solution for them. [music] An
- 27:44indirect way would be using tools like
- 27:46ChatGPT to save you time, so that way
- 27:48you can spend more time on figuring out
- 27:50how to make money elsewhere. Do you see
- 27:52[music] the difference? Don't get me
- 27:53wrong, ChatGPT is an incredibly valuable
- 27:55tool. But as I said, it's not going to
- 27:57make you a millionaire. For specific
- 27:58outcomes, you need specialized tools
- 28:00that are built for that specific thing.
- 28:02But look, to be honest, that is a topic
- 28:03for another day. If you want to be the
- 28:05winner of the MacBook, once again, leave
- 28:06a like and drop a comment of your
- 28:08favorite tip. And with all that being
