If you’re wrestling with Gen AI prompts - getting outputs that are “just okay” and wasting time going back and forth, you’re probably doing it wrong. Neo Aplin, Inventium’s Gen AI expert, calls this “gunslinging.” It’s a fast-and-loose approach that leads to mediocre results. The smarter way? It’s called “architecting”- a method that helps you co-create with AI for complex tasks like strategy papers, training workshops, and reports. 

In this episode, Neo breaks down how to use architecting to get AI working like a true thinking partner and not just a text generator. 

We discuss: 
Why “gunslinging” leads to frustration and wasted time 
How to “architect” your AI prompts for better results 
The types of tasks where architecting will supercharge your work 
Tips for using architecting with tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Copilot 

Key quotes: 
“Most people are gunslingers - they shoot from the hip and hope for the best.” 
“Architecting is like designing a house before you build it. It makes the whole process faster, smoother, and way more effective.” 
“If you want AI to work as a true thinking partner, you need to co-create with it - not just give it a prompt and hope for the best.”
