You don't need to understand how LLMs work.
You just need to know *what* to ask.
Let’s say you need to generate marketing copy for a new SaaS tool.
Don't reach for GPT-4.
It’s overkill.
It’s a fancy, expensive, generalist.
Go with Claude 3 Haiku.
It's specifically trained for concise, high-quality output. It’s laser focused on creative tasks.
You’ll get better copy, faster, and for less.
the llm isn't working for you.
you're working for it.
every vague prompt you send
"help me with my business idea", trains you to expect a mediocre output and call it done.
the tool reflects your thinking back at you. bad input, polished garbage out.
here's the actual split:
people who USE the LLM:
-Show up with a real question, a constraint, a specific problem, proper context
they get leverage.
people the LLM USES:
show up with "give me ideas", they get content that sounds smart and does nothing.
the difference isn't the tool.
It's whether you thought before you typed.
AI can't compensate for a lack of proper thinking.

@rushicrypto AI will not wipe out jobs, it will most probably decrease the number of people involved in each department of a company.
We will go from 20 people in one team to 5, and those 5 will definitely know to use to AI.
Most people use claude like google.
Type a question.
Get an answer.
Close the tab.
That's not idea generation.
That's search with extra steps.
Here's the actual workflow:
- Dump your rough idea in plain language, no structure needed
- Ask claude to steelman it AND destroy it in the same prompt and take the destruction.
That's where the real idea lives.
Finally, ask:
"what's the version of this that actually makes money for a 3-person agency"
Now you have something.
The gap between "bad idea" and "fundable idea" is usually just one good prompt.
Most people skip step 2.
They want validation, not a real idea.
