02 — PROMPT IDEA

Summarise long videos in a flash 📺️

AI is awesome for skipping the fluff and getting to the meat of a topic.

If you have a YouTube video you want to watch - but don’t have the time - get ChatGPT to help by analysing the transcript.

Here’s how:

  1. Expand the video description

  1. Click “Show transcript”

  1. Scroll up to the Transcript area and select the whole transcript text (click and drag down, then copy to your clipboard)

  1. Paste the ENTIRE transcript into ChatGPT with the following prompt (tweak as needed)

Prompt: The following is the transcript from a YouTube video. Please provide a high-level summary of it and then ask for followup questions.

Why this matters

Some of the best content on the internet is hidden in YouTube videos. However, videos are often long - with lots of padding.

The above technique helps you get the content that matters most to you.

It can also help you determine whether a video is worth watching at all!

03 — AI EXPLAINED

ChatGPT sucks at maths.. or does it? 🧠 

Long-time subscriber Gary recently emailed us:

ChatGPT can make some really simple math errors. Once I pointed it out - it admitted the mistake and then did the thing correctly.

This is the second time this has happened to me.

You really do need to sense check answers!

- Gary Romano

An excellent point.

Because ChatGPT is a language engine it can have some surprising blind spots when the task isn’t language.

This includes maths - but also, the following infamous prompt still gives a wrong answer (give it a go yourself!):

This is where “GPTs” can help.

In ChatGPT you’ll see a link to “Explore GPTs”.

Think of these as little Apps (like the Apps on your phone) that are optimised to do a particular task well.

While there are many GPTs to explore, if you need ChatGPT to do anything involving maths, we highly recommend trying one called "Wolfram”.

Why this matters

ChatGPT is great at tasks involving language, but sometimes other powers are required. This is where GPTs can help you save even more time.
