Summary

Sometimes the best insights come from the strangest questions, and this Ask Us Anything proves it. Jay Schwedelson riffs on AI tricks you probably aren’t using but should, why half your “official-sounding” stats might be totally fake, and the one detail that makes your prompts 10x better. And just when it seems like things can’t get weirder, a question about Guam leads to toilets, vending machines, and why Japan might secretly be the best place on Earth.

0:00.0	Welcome to Do This Not That, the podcast from marketers.
0:05.0	We share quick tips, things you can do right now, and then we add a little bit of chaos at the end of every episode.
0:11.0	We also keep it short, like this intro. Let's check it out.
0:15.0	We are back for Ask Us Anything from the Do This Not Not That podcast, presented by Marigold.
0:21.4	You know, normally we release this, Ask Us Anything on Wednesdays, but we're trying it out on
0:25.3	Fridays. We're mixing it up. It's always about testing to see what people like and when.
0:29.5	And so thanks for sticking with us. And if you've never heard this episode, what we do here is
0:34.1	we get questions in all week long. We get in work questions. We get in absolutely ridiculous questions. And we try to tackle one of each. If you want to submit a question, you can go to jswettelson.com. There's a button that says podcast. Another one that says, ask us anything. We love the questions.

1:22.5	like some quick tip, trick things that are actually kind of a game changer. The first one is a little bit
1:28.8	frustrating. You may or may not realize this. Everybody knows that when you go to chat GPT or
1:33.5	whatever, they'll give you hallucinations. They'll give you answers that aren't necessarily real.
1:39.3	Even if they give you a stat, people don't realize when you get a stat back from let's say chat gpt it says 34% of
1:46.7	people but whatever industry you're in it sounds very official sometimes it even says a source
1:51.9	you know 34% of people from acme company according to whatever study blah blah blah and like wow that sounds
