Tyler argues a good prompt should be at least 21 words. He personally voice-dictates prompts that are "novel-length."

(Hear about it)NotebookLM can generate PowerPoint presentations — with a hidden "pencil" customization button before generating. The hack: export as PDF → import into Canva → use Magic Editor to make text editable. Tyler prefers this over Gamma for AI-generated decks. (Hear the tip)Claude's "Skills" feature allows you to save reusable workflows — Tyler demonstrated teaching Claude to write proposals by providing examples and a template, saving it as a skill, then calling it up any time with a new transcript. This dramatically speeds up proposal generation.
