In a recent LinkedIn post, Kobi Omenaka shares a collection of what he terms “brilliant AI prompts” that have demonstrably impacted users’ lives. Omenaka, who has spent the last three years curating prompts for platforms like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude, emphasizes the “everyday sparks of brilliance” that real people are achieving with artificial intelligence.
Transformative Applications of AI Prompts
The post, presented as a carousel of examples, details eleven distinct ways individuals have leveraged AI to solve problems, enhance skills, and navigate personal challenges. Omenaka highlights the surprising and often profound effects these prompts have had, moving beyond theoretical applications to tangible, life-altering results.
“Real people with Honest, clever, surprising ways, AI is helping behind the scenes.”
One of the most striking examples provided by Omenaka is the use of AI as a health and wellness tool. According to the post, one individual used ChatGPT after receiving concerning blood test results. By inputting their stats and seeking guidance, they developed a followable plan that led to significant weight loss.
“It gave me a plan I could actually follow. I lost 18 kg (40lb). I feel like a different person. It honestly might’ve saved my life.”
Omenaka also points to AI’s utility in professional development and personal organization. He describes a prompt that functions as a “Job Interview Coach,” where the AI conducts mock interviews and provides feedback, reportedly making users feel more prepared than traditional methods.
Personalized Guidance and Emotional Support
Further illustrating the versatility of these AI prompts, Omenaka details how individuals are using them for complex decision-making, creative assistance, and even emotional support. For instance, one user employed ChatGPT by assigning different personalities to the AI to act as a “Personal Council,” helping to explore decisions from multiple angles.
“I gave ChatGPT different personalities to help with decision-making. One’s like an angel, one plays devil’s advocate, another thinks about money. Together, they help me think things through in a way I never could alone.”
The collection also includes practical applications such as a prompt to filter out unnecessary preamble in recipe instructions, ensuring users get “Quick, simple, no blog BS.” Another example showcases AI as a “Grading Assistant,” helping educators maintain consistency and fairness when evaluating student work, especially during periods of fatigue.
AI as a Companion and Educator
Beyond utility, Omenaka’s compilation touches on AI’s role in companionship and learning. One user found solace as a “Grief Companion” after losing a parent, using the AI as a non-judgmental space to process emotions, while clarifying it’s not a substitute for professional therapy.
Similarly, AI is presented as an effective “Personal Tutor” capable of breaking down complex topics into manageable stages, allowing users to progress from beginner to expert at their own pace. This pedagogical application underscores AI’s potential for democratizing education and skill acquisition.
Other innovative uses highlighted include an “Rage Filter” for professionally rephrasing angry emails, a “Baby Name Assistant” for generating unique name combinations, and a “Tax Decoder” that simplifies complex tax laws, leading to significant financial savings for one user.
Omenaka concludes by offering a downloadable PDF of the prompts, inviting readers to explore these AI applications themselves.
