A short transcript excerpt from a YouTube conversation (uploaded by Patrick Biddiscombe) where Ethan DeWaal and another speaker describe using meta prompting to improve AI prompts and productivity. Key points: they use Claude to iteratively rewrite and optimize prompts (claiming Claude often improves prompts substantially), they use meta prompting for tasks like call-prep prompts, and one speaker reports practicing meta prompting since "May of last year."
