ChatGPT will make you superhuman.

But only if you know how to use it correctly.

Here's a crash course on ChatGPT for beginners:

ChatGPT is the most powerful natural language AI ever created.

It can answer almost any question you might have.

You can now have a conversation and get exactly what you want.

Here's how:

1/ Prompts

Let's start with a simple prompt.

"What is the tallest mountain in the world?"

• Write your text
• Hit enter
• Get your output

Use the 'Regenerate response' button to get a new generation of the same prompt.

Use the thumb up/down button to report feedback.


2/ Continuing conversations

You can continue conversations indefinitely.

It takes reference of what you said earlier and pulls that context into new responses.

"What was the name of the first climber of that mountain?"

It knows 'that mountain' is in fact 'Mount Everest'.


3/ Preferences

I want to lose fat but gain muscle.

But I don't know how.

I can ask ChatGPT to give me a list of foods I should be eating.

From this list, I can get a shopping list and cooking instructions.

You get a conversation based on the context of your past prompts.

Investing can be complicated.

Let's make it simple.

10 terms every entrepreneur and investor should know:

1/ Internal Rate of Return (IRR)

IRR tells you what your average return is when time value of money is factored in.

Let's say you have an option to get 100K today or 100K in 5 years.

You would obviously prefer to get paid today so you can reinvest.


This also prevents future inflation from eating your purchasing power.

An investment that realises returns sooner than later will have a higher IRR.

2/ Multiple of Money (MoM)

Also known as cash-on-cash return or multiple of invested capital (MOIC).

Example:

Total cash inflows (proceeds from sale of a company) = $100M
Total cash outflows (initial investment) = $10M

MoM would be 10.0x.


3/ Rule of 72

A “back-of-the-envelope” method to calculate how long it would take your investment to double (2x).

Example:

How long would it take to double my money if I invest in the S&P 500?

S&P 500 average return = 8%

= 72 / 8

= 9 years

Want to be a 10x better communicator than 95% of people?

Use McKinsey's 3-step Pyramid Principle:

McKinsey is the most powerful consulting firm on earth.

• $10B in revenue
• 30,000+ employees
• 90+ years of history

This is their 3-step process for structured communication:

1/ Start with the answer first

It's natural to build up to a conclusion after presenting the facts.

Instead, give the answer first.

This allows your listener to quickly process your recommendation.

"What should we do?" → "You should do X."

You'll be more persuasive.

2/ Group and summarise your supporting arguments

Your ideas should form a pyramid under your answer.

Your ideas at one level must be a summary of the ideas below.

For each supporting argument, break down into a group of 3.

Three is the magic number– memorable and persuasive.


3/ Logically order your supporting ideas

You want to make sure your ideas belong together.

1. Time order - follow if there is a sequence of events
2. Structural order - break a single thought into its parts
3. Degree order - present your ideas from most to least important

If you know me, you know I don't like broadcasting details about my personal life on this website, but I have been getting asked why I'm not doing Christmas this year so I just wanna put this whole mess to bed. First of all, I don't agree with gay marriage... (1 of 4,625)

... full of dog food and she said, "I'm pretending this is ice cream! Treat me like a baby!" and proceeded to hump her own arm and I thought, "something tells me this isn't the real Norah Jones"... (117 of 4,625)

...cost me $7,000. I had to put it on two separate credit cards! It wasn't 'til I got to my car that I realized "that's way too expensive for one onion." But I didn't have time. Amanda Seyfried was begging to change my diaper... (1,001 of 4,625)

...another Christmas miracle. Mistletoe, stockings, sleigh bells, snow! All these things I have put up my ass. The taste of coffee... (2,974 of 4,625)

...I felt a *very* cold finger on my cheek and I turned around and I said, "Grandma?" and she goes, "Surprise, I'm alive and I work at Sears!" I said, "okay"... (3,047 of 4,625)

Pretending that voting for Trump or denying climate change or suggesting the solution to every problem is more guns is a legitimate point of view, worthy of respect is not "how America works." It is how it dies.

People in a free society are entitled to any point of view no matter how obviously wrong or outlandish or destructive provided they do not impose their views on others.

But suggesting that something ignorant or divorced from reality warrants the same kind of treatment in public debate as something based in fact or at least credible is absurd and when done on behalf of a society in public media or academic settings it is self-destructive.

We would not grant media coverage or much bandwidth at all to a group that argued that unicorns exist or that there was a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Yet views like denying climate change or basing policy decisions on sweeping, obvious lies, are just as unsound.

Somewhere, somehow, judgments must be made. Some behaviors are wrong and must be condemned. Someone must challenge lies and demand facts. Coddling people who embrace idiocies does not help them no matter how loudly they demand to be coddled.

one of the things i like about Batman is that it's fundamentally about being orphaned, and being an orphan — how this guy stays tethered to the world in his own weird, abstract, extrajudicial way when he feels that his link to it has been violently severed

Batman does this by permanently recapitulating his own trauma: solving crimes for other people, protecting them. But that's actually just the beginning; he also recapitulates his own experience of orphanness by essentially raising several orphans

Dick is an orphan in the traditional sense: dead parents. Batman sees it happen. Jason, less so: missing dad, known mom who eventually dies. Tim, even less so: parents are around a while, and involved, before both dying. Carrie, even less than that: negligent parents.

Steph: evil father, who openly works against her. And then there's Damian, whose parents are both alive and yet both have identities that totally obliterate their role as his parents. He doesn't relate to them as a mother and father; he can't, and neither can they.

In all these different cases, Batman tries all these different ways of making orphanness for them not what it was for him: Either by trying to teach them the (arguably poor) coping skills early that he learned over a very long time, or by literally legally adopting them, etc.
