A new collaborative partner
Instead of listening to a podcast, I chatted with Chat GPT. I went on an hour-long walk after work with my headphones on, asking the chatbot questions the whole time.
ChatGPT's mobile app offers a convenient feature in the bottom right. Simply select it, and you can verbally speak your chat prompt, instantly listening to the answer. This allows you to seamlessly ask a follow-up prompt, enhancing your brainstorming process with efficiency and ease.
I started with a vague, high-level question. "How can I automate a workflow with AI that tells me about market trends for my clients?"
It mentioned using Zapier, a popular automation tool. So I asked follow-up questions about how to set that up step-by-step. Then what the best RSS readers would be to feed into Zapier?
By the end of my walk, I had embarked on a transformative journey. ChatGPT guided me in exploring new approaches, tools, and use cases. It had become my brainstorming partner, helping me to tackle my specific challenge in a unique and innovative way.

Brainstorm with ChatGPT
TLDR: Use ChatGPT's mobile app audio interface to ask questions verbally and hear the responses. This can be useful as a brainstorming partner.
Tool: ChatGPT mobile app (Pro Version)
Cost: Pro Version - $20 / month
Brainstorm Use Case:
Ideate new approaches to a challenge you're facing. Find a room with a whiteboard. Or go for a walk. Use ChatGPT to ask open-ended questions as if kicking off a brainstorming session with a partner.
Start broad. "How can I use AI tools to send me market trends about my clients at work?" "How could I automate this?"
But then add constraints. "How could I experiment doing this in an hour?" "How could I do this if I don't have any technical skills?" "How could I do this without paying for any tools?"
Explore alternative approaches. "Which of these approaches is most likely to succeed?" "How would this work with X tool instead of Y tool?" "How could this be simpler?"
Explore how best to communicate the solution you just came up with. "What metaphor could I use to explain this to my boss, who is not technical and is risk-avoidant?"
Podcast Use Case:
Want to learn something? Instead of trying to find a podcast on that niche topic, try asking a prompt to start learning. For example, you could ask, 'What are the key principles of AI?' or 'How does blockchain work?
When your curiosity peaks at a specific point in a podcast, such as the 3rd point out of 5 in a list of key concepts, ask for more details on it. After you understand the concept, ask for a step-by-step plan on how to execute it.
Adjust the details to be simpler and explain things like a 5-year-old. Or go deeper as if you have a PhD in the subject.
Make it more concise with a business tone. Or to teach you a business topic through a fiction story with characters and flowery language.
With ChatGPT, you can now tailor the podcast to exactly your interests and level of knowledge. This personalized learning experience is helpful for sales because it puts the power of knowledge in your hands, making you feel valued and catered to.
