Quick answers for this chapter

What’s the biggest mistake people make with AI?

Accepting the first answer. Treat AI output as a draft from a fast intern: useful, but it needs your review.

Should I share client information with AI tools?

Only what you’re allowed to share. Check the tool’s privacy settings and your client agreements, and remove personal or confidential details.

Do I need to learn “prompt engineering”?

You need clear briefing skills, the same ones that make you good with clients and developers.
