Most people type a sentence into ChatGPT and get garbage back. Here's why you're not getting NeurIPS-level insights.

NeurIPS highlighted how critical structured prompting is. Generic prompts give generic AI. To get specific, actionable intelligence on cutting-edge research, you need to prompt like a researcher.

Instead of asking 'Summarize NeurIPS,' try this:

'Act as a Senior AI Researcher specializing in [specific subfield, e.g., generative adversarial networks]. Analyze the NeurIPS 2023 proceedings. Identify [number] key advancements in [specific area, e.g., diffusion models], focusing on their implications for [your industry/application]. Present this as a concise executive summary with bullet points outlining each advancement.'

That one structured prompt framework could replace hours of sifting through papers and trying to connect dots. I have 100 more of these advanced prompt frameworks, organized by use case and research topic, in the link in my bio. Grab it and start prompting like a pro.
