How to use AI: Prompts vs. Projects vs. Agents
Manage episode 500319536 series 3572101
A lot of people aren't sure whether they should just chat with an AI model, craft a structured prompt, spin up a project, or unleash a full-blown agent. In this episode, we break down the differences between these approaches and share a practical decision-making framework. We'll show how simple prompts excel for quick, isolated tasks, why structured prompts improve clarity and focus, when a project (workflow) is better for predictable, repeatable processes, and where autonomous agents shine for dynamic, open-ended problems. Along the way we'll demo real examples, share tips for avoiding unnecessary complexity, and help listeners decide which tool fits their use case.
