4 easy tips for writing better AI prompts | Kunalsinh Kathia | TEDxSaffrony Institute of Technology

What if the problem with AI isn’t the technology but how we talk to it? Through humorous, relatable stories, from bad haircuts to awkward photos, Kunalsinh Kathia reveals a powerful insight: we often give incomplete instructions and expect perfect results. In the age of AI, that habit is holding us back. This talk reframes prompting not as a technical skill, but as a fundamental human ability, one that now requires clarity, structure, and intention. Introducing a simple framework to communicate better with AI, he shows how better questions lead to better answers. Because AI isn’t magic, it’s a mirror. And the future won’t belong to those who use AI. It will belong to those who know how to direct it.
