Eric Siu explains why using ChatGPT like a search engine backfires. Asking ad-hoc follow-ups creates open loops: fuzzy, unresolved work that clutters your workflow. Better to structure your AI requests upfront.

Open loops, these are people when you're, let's say you're working with somebody, you're basically asking a lot of questions, you're asking a lot of follow-ups and things like that. This is a good comparison when you're using like a ChatGPT or Claude just to search, for example. Maybe you're using to find recipes, come up with different ideas, and you're just using it purely like a search engine, right? That to me is still very much an open loop and it gets messy. This in a work environment is ad hoc work and things end up fuzzy, right? But it's still fuzzy for you personally using it that way.
