🏴‍☠️ 10 Expert Prompts

You’re using ChatGPT like a scooter when it’s a race car. Forget quick questions; hand it real jobs. Turn it into your strategist, tutor, and editor with the right prompts. This playbook shows you how to talk to it so it thinks with you.

Free event: Become an AI Builder in a Day (No Engineering Required) – Nov 6

On November 6, join Section for a half-day of micro-workshops designed to turn you from an AI prompter to a workflow redesigner. You’ll learn how to build LLM automations, design agentic workflows, and try your hand at vibe coding. Walk away with practical frameworks and a certificate of completion.

It’s a full-on reasoning engine, but you have to know how to talk to it to get the best results. I just stumbled upon an awesome post from a LinkedIn creator that lays out the blueprint perfectly. The mind behind it frames ChatGPT as a "free PhD," and after seeing these prompts, I totally get it.

The whole idea is to stop asking simple questions and start giving it specific jobs. These prompts turn the AI into a specialist for whatever you need: a critic, a teacher, or a strategist. It’s all about the instructions you provide.

Here are a few of my favorite takeaways from the list:

• Turn AI into a Strategist: Forget just asking for facts. You can make it a true thinking partner. Prompts for decision support or ideation help you analyze options and brainstorm solutions like a pro.

• Create a Personal Tutor: Don’t just ask "what is X." The expert’s "Teaching" prompt lets you request a custom lesson, complete with practice problems and a quiz, all tailored to your exact skill level.

• Supercharge Your Writing: It’s an incredible editor if you guide it. With the "Critique My Text" prompt, you can get feedback on clarity, tone, and brevity, which helps refine any document.
