How to be more ambitious: A tutorial for humans with models

The author, who works on Claude, argues that people should be more ambitious when using AI models and offers a framework of four types: Speed, Altitude, Depth, and Range. Altitude means considering the outcome rather than the individual task, such as asking Claude to keep an app crash-free instead of fixing single crashes. Depth means working the way top field experts do, for example using databases and statistical models instead of markdown tables, while Range means drawing on multiple fields, such as assembling a red team that includes a short seller and a forensic accountant.
