Stop typing your prompts. Talking is three times faster and the results are better.
A Stanford and Baidu study found speech is 3x faster than typing in English with a 20.4% lower error rate.

The AI gets better instructions without you trying harder.
Chain-of-thought prompting for business users
Chain-of-thought prompting is debugging for AI decisions. IBM research confirms it boosts performance on complex reasoning by making each logical step visible and auditable before the answer lands.
