Learning to use chat is a bit like learning to drive.
At the beginning, everything feels unfamiliar. Too many moving parts, too many things to think about, too many stalls, too many new things. Everything feels like it’s happening at once, and it’s easy to get lost and overwhelmed.
Then you learn the mechanics. You start to understand how things work, and through trial and error you figure it out.
Then something clicks. You’re no longer having to think about how to “operate the car.” You’re using it to get somewhere.
The same is true with chat.
Left-hand drive or right-hand drive, different AI system — it doesn’t matter. Once you understand how ChatGPT works, you can take that skill anywhere.
The Rules of the Code are your shortcut. Think of this book as your driving instructor. You’ll get a glimpse under the bonnet (AKA: hood) and see why things work the way they do, so you can drive with confidence.
It’s a lot more efficient than fumbling around with bad prompts and cleaning up word salad. It saves you time, money, and energy.
Once you’ve learned the mechanics, you’re driving.
Thinking With Chat™: The Rules of the Code explains what is happening when ChatGPT works, and when it doesn’t.
It shows you how to recognise patterns in responses, understand why things go wrong, and what to do about it.
The Question Design Blueprint gives structured guidance for better AI conversations, clearer thinking, and stronger judgement.
The Question Design Blueprint will help you to ask better questions, and the book helps you understand how to work with the AI system you're using.
