How to use DeepSeek efficiently: five practical techniques

Hey, everybody! I want to share with you today a super cool AI tool -- DeepSeek, teach you how to use it fast and good. It's like having a smart assistant to help you handle things. It's so convenient. Let's see.

What can DeepSeek do?

Let's start with what it can do. It's amazing.

1. Smart questions and answers: DeepSeek can handle life problems, learning problems, programming difficulties, and work needs. Like translating contracts, designing marketing programs? It can help you.
2. Network Search: Want to know the latest policy or the results of the competition? A web-based search facility allows for the latest developments, which feels like a search engine.
3. Code and data processingIf you're a programmer or a data analyst, DeepSeek can help you write Python codes, handle Excel, and even repair SSL certificates for errors.
4. Content creation: Writing articles, emails, scripts? DeepSeek can generate content according to your needs, like having a private writer on standby.
5. Documentation and knowledge management: Any long documents to read? It translates or extracts priorities, saves time and is particularly suitable for the preparation of meetings or reports.

By the way, DeepSeek is also an open-source AI model that's been hot all over the world lately, even affecting the U.S. technology stock market!

How does it work more efficiently? Five moves to teach you.

To save you time, DeepSeek's got five moves, and I've used them to make a difference:

First move: structured questions, more precise answers
Asking questions is not too general, using the “background + task + request + supplement” four-step approach. For example:
“I am the new owner (background) of the pet clinic, trying to pull clients (tasks) at a low cost, giving three specific programmes and estimating costs (requests), targeting the young pet owner (supplement).”
DeepSeek's answers are more appropriate, such as "A day of inquiry, short video teaching" and more efficient!

Second move: the big mission will be completed gradually.
Don't eat fat on a big project, for example, by writing a long article and walking in three steps:

• (a) To allow it to generate an outline (Introduction + three arguments + conclusions);
• And then, in part, for example, “writing introductory remarks”;
• Finally, the logic and data are checked to ensure that they are not missed.
  This makes the content more solid and does not easily lose focus.

Step three: detailed description of needs, avoiding ambiguity
Don't ask too broad a question, such as “analysing market data” too general, and DeepSeek may be a mess.
Amend to read: “Analysis of cosmetic sales in the first quarter of 2024, identifying categories with a return rate of over 15 per cent.”
For example, not to mention the “recommendant list”, stating that “three practical financial books with CFA qualifications are recommended”.
Detailedly described, the answer is more appropriate to your needs.

Step four: Dynamic adjustment, gradual optimization
If the first version of the answer is not satisfactory, do not abandon it in a hurry and request additional guidance to optimize it.
For example, the marketing programme does not focus on university students, and you can ask: "Optimate direction: design promotions in conjunction with end-of-cycle seasons to increase student social space advice."
Just like mentoring interns, the answer is slowly refined.

Number five: Verify the information, don't believe it all.
In the case of key data or legal provisions, DeepSeek should preferably be identified as the source to ensure accuracy.
For example: “Check the conformity of this provision with article 40 of the Labour Contracts Act”.
This would avoid the risk of a lack of information.

Watch out for these pits.

There are a few pits to watch with DeepSeek:

• Watch out for AI hallucinations.: Sometimes it can create data, especially in the legal and scientific fields, and the answers may be out of line, remember to verify.
• Timeliness of knowledge: its default knowledge base is updated to December 2023, after which information will be searched manually for the latest content.
• Don't ask too long.: DeepSeek single output of about 4,000 words, which is too long to be missed, suggests splits, for example.

Look at the actual case. Feel the power.

To share a few real cases and feel the power of DeepSeek:

• Life sceneI used it to explain cloud computing to the kids, to use the metaphor of "multi-cooked cooks and cooks," and the kids understood it at once.
• Working scene: Designing anti-fraud short video scripts, and I'm putting it in the lens, and conflict and props are very attractive and very effective.
• Learning scenes: It saved me a lot of time by asking for an overview of the literature to mark the points of contention and the volume of references to ensure that they were rigorous.

There's some little advice.

Finally, I'll give you two little stickers to improve the use experience:

• Network speed up.: If DeepSeek uses Cardon, it is possible to try another blood-stained version of Deepseek, which is particularly suited to solving the problem of network delay.
• Command Template LibraryIt is recommended that the Qinghua University e-learning course, “From Introduction to Equivalence”, has a great deal of user skills and deserves to be seen.

All right, that's it! With these methods, DeepSeek will help you to improve your efficiency.
