Can prompting ChatGPT make us better communicators?

It’s not about getting better answers, but asking better questions. It’s about figuring out what you really want to say, how to say it clearly, and anticipating how your words will land – on both human and machine ears. And in that sense, AI might not just be shaping our communication for us, it might be teaching us to be better communicators ourselves.

In daily life, the ability to communicate clearly is a surprisingly underrated skill. Whether you’re writing a note to ask for help at work, or reaching out to someone after a misunderstanding, the success of that interaction often hinges less on what you say and more on how you say it. Think: tone, timing, context. These are soft skills we’re often expected to know intuitively, but many people never get taught them. Prompting AI can offer a space to practice. 

For neurodivergent individuals and anyone who struggles with social nuance, structured prompting is especially powerful. Conditions like autism or ADHD often come with challenges around interpreting or producing indirect, socially “smooth” language prized in many workplaces.
