MIT Says Half Your AI Gains Come From How You Ask. Not the Model.

Description

Now I have the full transcript. Building the deliverable.


What's really happening inside prompting now that AI agents are 100x more powerful than six months ago? The common story is that prompt engineering is dead — but the reality is more complicated.


In this podcast, I share the inside scoop on the AI Question Method and why heavy knowledge work with frontier models demands a new mental model:

• Why prompt engineering is now table stakes, not a skill

• How to treat AI like a senior partner, not a junior

• What three question principles unlock agentic knowledge work

• Where most users still prompt like it is 2025


For operators and builders, the agentic shift is a real opportunity, but only if you evolve your prompting alongside the models and learn to ask sharper questions instead of issuing tasks.
