    Chapter 6: Which AI Tool for Which Task

    Not all AI tools are equal. Learn when to use ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or OpenClaw — and how to adapt your prompts to each tool's strengths for dramatically better results.

    Chapter 7: The 10 Most Common Mistakes (And How to Fix Them)

    These mistakes account for 90% of "AI doesn't work for me" complaints. From being too vague to accepting first output to ignoring hallucinations — learn the fix for each one.

    Chapter 8: Your Prompt Design Workflow

    The complete step-by-step process for designing any prompt from scratch: define the outcome, choose your framework, write, add constraints, iterate, and save what works.
