THIS IS WHY AIRLINES HATE CHATGPT

Flight for $879. I paid $299.
No points. No memberships. No VPN.

Here are 8 prompts I used to travel like a pro:
1. Cheapest Dates Scanner

“Find the lowest-cost departure and return dates within a [X-day] window around [target date]. Highlight 2–3 best combos.”
2. Cheapest Flights Finder

“List all flights from [Departure City] to [Destination] in the next [X weeks]. Include budget airlines and smaller carriers. Sort by total cost.”
3. Multi-Leg Route Optimizer

“Suggest multi-leg or layover routes from [Departure City] to [Destination] that bring the price under $[target]. Keep layovers under [X hours].”
4. Promo Code & Deal Finder

“Find valid promo codes, flash sales, or exclusive discounts for flights on [preferred airlines]. Use verified, up-to-date sources only.”
5. Fee Breakdown & Minimization

“Break down all extra fees for this flight (bags, seats, boarding). Suggest legal strategies to minimize or avoid them.”
6. Price Negotiation Email Script

“Write a polite, professional email asking for a price match, discount, or upgrade. Include reasons I may qualify (fare rules, loyalty, competitor pricing).”
7. Refund & Flexibility Check

“Analyze refund, reschedule, and cancellation policies for these flights. Highlight which options give the lowest risk if plans change.”
8. Hidden City Ticketing

“Explain if hidden-city ticketing could reduce my fare from [Departure City] to [Destination]. Include risks, airline rules, and when it’s worth it.”
Glad people are enjoying this.

This guy literally shared a step-by-step roadmap to build your first AI agent - and it’s gold. Image
No hype. No jargon. Just a practical, battle-tested path to get from 0 → 1.

👇 Here’s the exact recipe I follow:
1) Pick a tiny problem

❌ Don’t build a “general agent.”
✅ Start with something specific: book a doctor’s appointment, monitor job boards, summarize unread emails. Small + clear = fast wins.

Here's what you need to know: Image
Microsoft has a $3.68T market cap. So when their CPO @aparnacd is talking about PRDs, a lot of folks listen. In fact, many of you asked me about it.

• Edge case A → Handle like B
• Bad input C → Reject with message D

AI killed the 10 page PRD. But the PRD isn't dead.

Here's how to write PRDs in the AI age: Image
Companies like Google are shifting to a build-first culture. And it's good. AI prototyping tools have completely changed the game, blurring role lines. Image
But that doesn't mean the PRD has no purpose!

The modern PRD is lighter, sharper, and example heavy. Image
