Everywhere I look people are talking about AI agents, ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity… I'm starting to feel a bit behind. What's the best one to start with to keep up?

Good question — lots of people feel that way right now. They're all AI tools, but each one is better for different kinds of tasks. Here's the simple breakdown.

📊 Quick overview ChatGPT Great for brainstorming, creative writing, and everyday tasks. Claude Better for long documents, reports, and structured thinking. Perplexity Best when you want answers based on current information from the web. AI agents Tools that automate tasks — like research, scheduling, or writing workflows.

Okay that helps. I mostly need help writing work emails and reports.

That's a perfect AI use case. For professional emails and reports, Claude usually performs best. But the prompt matters just as much as the tool.

Your prompt might look like this: "write an email about our results" That's too vague.

Try something like this instead: "Write a professional email to my team announcing our Q2 results. Tone: optimistic but realistic. Include: 15% revenue growth, a successful product launch, and two new hires."

Oh wow, that's much clearer.

Exactly. The more context you give AI, the better the response.
