In a fresh episode of the Son of A... podcast, Gen Z host Gabe shares an embarrassing but eye-opening moment: an AI tool outright rejected his exam paper. But instead of sulking, he turned to his Gen X dad—who turned out to be surprisingly skilled at prompting AI.
The trailer for the full episode, titled "My 54-year-old dad is better at AI than me. I didn't see that coming," dives into the common pitfalls of AI prompting. Gabe and his dad discuss why people trust AI too much, the risk of letting it do all the thinking, and practical tips for crafting prompts that actually deliver.
They even pull up one of Gabe's old, failed prompts to dissect what went wrong. The trailer suggests the full episode will be a fun, cross-generational showdown of AI know-how, with the dad stealing the spotlight.
