How to make ChatGPT more productive?

Tired of Repeating Yourself to ChatGPT? Here's a Better Way

Let's be honest, using ChatGPT can be a bit of a hassle sometimes. I've lost count of how many times I've started a new chat, only to find myself re-explaining my project, re-uploading files, and re-pasting code. It's like Groundhog Day, but with more AI and less Bill Murray. I'm sure you've been there too.

So, how do you actually get something done without spending half your time setting up the conversation? Here’s what I've found works best:

  1. Focus on Context, Not Just Prompts: I've noticed that the real magic happens when your AI knows the "why" behind what you're doing. This means providing detailed context from the start. Instead of just asking, "Write a blog post," feed it your website, your style examples, and any relevant research.
  2. Prepare Your Data: Before you even think of opening a chat, organize your data. Think documents, code snippets, and any specifics your project requires. This ensures the AI truly understands you and your needs.
  3. Batch and Automate: Instead of constant back-and-forth, try batching your requests. Explain what you want, provide the data, and let the AI do its thing. Then, refine as needed. It's a much more efficient workflow.
  4. Experiment with Different Models: Not all AI models are created equal. I've seen massive differences depending on the project. Some excel with creative writing, others are brilliant at code. Experiment!
  5. Build Templates: Save templates for common tasks. Need to create documentation? Save a basic template with the main sections. It's like having a pre-written starting point.
  6. Keep it Simple: Avoid overly complex prompts. Break down large projects into smaller, manageable steps, asking for help with each one.
  7. Test, Refine, Repeat: What I have learned it’s that the only way always improve is by running several tests until find the desired output.

Frankly, I was getting pretty frustrated with the constant setup. I was wasting so much time on the trivial stuff. That's why, when I found Contextch.at, I knew I was onto something good.

Making AI Chats Actually Work for You

Contextch.at lets you set up multiple projects, each with your websites, files, and even your GitHub repos. I really appreciate the ability to start new chats that already know my data. No more re-explaining everything, which is a huge time-saver. Having useful tools like selectable AI models and a handy cost calculator is just the cherry on top. Trust me; if you're tired of the same old ChatGPT routine, give Contextch.at a try. It’s the sort of tool you don’t know you need until you have it – and then you can’t imagine life without it. It’s a total game changer!
