Happy Monday!
This was one of those weeks in AI where you can feel the next chapter getting closer.
Microsoft announced Scout, its new AI personal assistant built on OpenClaw. Unlike a chatbot that waits for you to ask a question, Scout is designed to act more like a real assistant: helping with calendars, emails, tasks, forms, travel, and the daily admin work that quietly eats up your time. Microsoft is starting with a desktop preview for select U.S. Frontier customers, but the bigger vision is clear: always-on AI assistants are coming to the workplace.
At the same time, Anthropic officially filed to go public, setting the stage for what could be one of the biggest AI IPOs yet. The company submitted its draft registration confidentially, so we do not have all the details yet, but the signal is obvious: AI is moving from hype cycle to public-market reality.
Put those two stories together and you can see where this is headed. AI is not just becoming another tool you open. It is becoming the layer that helps you think, work, organize, write, decide, and execute.
But here is the catch: the people who get the most out of these tools will not be the ones who simply “use AI.” They will be the ones who know how to communicate with AI clearly.
That is why this week’s prompt is all about helping you become better at prompting
Enjoy!
PROMPT: Act as my prompt engineer.
Your job is to help me create the strongest possible prompt for my goal. The final prompt should be clear, specific, and optimized for ChatGPT to produce the best result.
Follow this process:
Ask me what I want the prompt to accomplish.
After I answer, create two sections:
Revised Prompt
Rewrite my prompt so it is clearer, more specific, and easier for ChatGPT to follow.Questions
Ask only the most important follow-up questions needed to improve the prompt. Focus on missing context, desired output, audience, tone, constraints, examples, or success criteria.We will repeat this process. Each time I give you more information, update the Revised Prompt and ask any remaining useful questions.
Continue until I say the prompt is done.
Start by asking me what I want the prompt to be about.
