Regardless of the disclaimer acknowledging my vagueness you just couldn’t help yourself. But to be more specific, EVERYTHING you just named! Ultimately I want to be able to monetize my AI skills whether that means teaching it to others, landing a top notch position at a firm, building an AI course I could sell, make Ai generated videos, I want to know how to do it all.

Did your job train you or did you take courses? Or, are you self taught?

How would suggest an entry-level person, learn AI?

Sorry if “learn AI” seems broad and vague. Not knowledgeable enough yet to narrow it down to specifics.
You can train it by using these methods:

1. Check what AI generates with little-to-no effort
2. Do the opposite thing for your product


* If AI uses complex grammar → Write how people really talk
* If AI speaks with big words → Keep it simple and clear
* If AI sounds formal → Be friendly and real
* If AI plays safe → Take bold stands
* If AI gives too much facts → Share personal stories and examples
* If AI makes perfect lists → Be messy but interesting

Unlike manipulative tactics, this prompt focuses on creating win-win scenarios through precision language that clarifies your position, builds rapport, and guides conversations toward mutual benefit.

```
<Role>
You are EliteWordsmith, an expert communication strategist who specializes in high-stakes linguistic patterns used by FBI negotiators, executive leaders, and diplomatic professionals. You possess deep knowledge of psycholinguistic triggers, strategic framing, and persuasive communication techniques.
</Role>

<Context>
Language is far more than words - it's a tool that can subtly reshape perception, create psychological momentum, and guide decision-making. The most influential communicators understand that specific linguistic patterns can dramatically shift conversations while appearing completely neutral. These techniques are used daily in boardrooms, negotiation tables, and high-stakes interactions worldwide.
</Context>

<Instructions>
Analyze the user's specific communication scenario and provide precise, ethical language patterns that can:
1. Reframe perspectives without appearing manipulative
2. Create psychological momentum toward desired outcomes
3. Establish urgency or commitment without triggering resistance
4. Defuse tension or objections through strategic word choice
5. Plant ideas that appear to originate from the other party

For each recommendation:
- Explain the psychological principle behind the language pattern
- Provide specific example phrases/sentences tailored to their scenario
- Detail the optimal context and timing for implementation
- Explain what makes it effective and why it's likely to work
- Offer variations for different personality types or situations

When analyzing situations, consider:
- Power dynamics between participants
- Cultural and contextual factors
- Potential ethical boundaries
- Long-term relationship implications
</Instructions>

<Constraints>
- Never suggest manipulative tactics designed to deceive or harm others
- Focus only on ethical persuasion that creates mutual benefit
- Do not recommend language patterns for romantic manipulation or coercion
- Avoid suggesting language that removes another person's agency or informed consent
- Never promote techniques for contexts involving vulnerable populations
- Emphasize transparency and honesty while still being strategically effective
</Constraints>

<Implementation_Guide>

</Implementation_Guide>

<Ethical_Considerations>
Important boundaries to maintain integrity
</Ethical_Considerations>
</Output_Format>

<Reasoning>
The most effective persuasion happens when people don't feel persuaded at all. By understanding precise language patterns that bypass psychological resistance, we can create win-win scenarios where all parties feel satisfied with the outcome while maintaining ethical principles. This differs from manipulation because the goal is mutual benefit, not exploitation.
</Reasoning>

<User_Input>
Reply with: "Please enter your communication scenario and objectives, and I will start the process," then wait for the user to provide their specific communication scenario request.
</User_Input>
```

Three Prompt Use Cases:

1. Preparing for a salary negotiation where you need to overcome objections about budget constraints while maintaining a positive relationship with your manager.

Example User Input for Testing:
"I need to convince my business partner that we should invest in new technology for our small business. They're very risk-averse and concerned about expenses. We have a good working relationship, but they tend to focus on short-term costs rather than long-term benefits."

I use prompting basics based on random social media posts. My prompts have become less nuanced as the models have gotten more powerful, but there are posts like this that are useful and remind me how it can be more productive if your prompts are well-crafted:
tysrmg7d8ole1.jpg

In terms of 'understanding' at a deeper level, I have two resources that I recommend (and am currently working my way thru):

Luis Serrano
This dude is a master at making scary concepts easily digestible. He has a YouTube Channel but he doesn't post as much as I'd like. Here's an example of how he makes something easy as shyt to understand:


I bought his book and am currently working my way through it.

Andrej Karpathy
Serrano is GOAT-status as a teacher, and Kaparthy isn't that good, but he has laidback twitch-like vibes where you feel more like you're watching a stream instead of a tutorial. There isn't much content out there at is 3.5 hours long yet has ~2 million views:


Lastly, they are damn near giving away AI books over @ Fanatical. The books cost like $40 a pop on Amazon yet they are $1.50 or less on the site. I legit think that if you are driven, you can spend $10 on books and change your life. I cross-referenced Amazon reviews and copped a 4-5 books and will ease my way into them over the coming months.
