Step 2: Disregard that which cannot be measured easily
Step 3: Presume that which cannot be measured easily isn’t important

People make prompting too hard. Most people would benefit from just using good enough prompting techniques. I outline some basic rules, including why “treat AI like an intern” is no longer the advice I would give new AI users. www.oneusefulthing.org/p/getting-st...
