I’ve been using AI for a while now. And I see people around me not utilizing the power of generative AI to the fullest. Every other day, I find new use cases of generative AI that help me to increase my productivity and knowledge while saving time and effort. Here are a few uncommon but useful ways to use AI.

**1\.** ==**Find the right medicine:**== When you are sick, take a photo of all your medicine blister packs and ask ChatGPT to recommend the right one for your symptoms.

**2\. Reduce hallucinations:** At the end of your question, add, “*Do a web search and then reply.*” This forces generative AI to give accurate answers.

**3\. Apply the Feynman technique:** After AI explains a concept, summarize the same concept simply in your own words and ask “*Correct*?” AI will correct you if necessary. This method makes learning so much more engaging and also increases retention.

**4\. Convert photos to text:** This helps save a lot of time, even though there are so many tools available on the web. Using ChatGPT for this task on my phone is very convenient.

**5\. Embrace the TL;DR:** This is a no-brainer. You can use this prompt for a lot of things. Summarize code, texts, emails, book pages, news, articles, and many other things throughout the day.

==**6\. Apply the Pareto Principle:**== ==The 80/20 rule is a great way to learn new concepts. Example usage. “====*I want to learn \[topic\]. Use the Pareto*== ==Principle== ==*(80/20 rule) to create a course for me.*====”.==

**7\. Ask for movie recommendations:** Ask AI to give spoiler-free movie recommendations with reviews based on your preferred genres, actors, languages, etc.

**8\. Use for web searches:** Instead of going to Google, Ask ChatGPT to find something on the web to bypass SEO-optimized articles and get relevant information quickly.

**9\. Rate my work:** Ask ChatGPT to rate anything. This is the prompt you can use for it. “*Rate the above \[article\] in different aspects and suggest how I can improve it in those areas.”* I use it to rate my code, articles, understanding, etc.

**10\. Keep it short:** Add, **“***Give brief, clear answers that include all key details. Be concise but informative.***”** at the end, to get better answers.

**11\. Enable Incognito mode:** ChatGPT has an option for temporary chat. When enabled, your data will not be saved in history and won’t be used to train the models.
