One AI answer sounds authoritative because it's the only one in the room. Ask the same question from three seats — whoever pays, whoever does the work, whoever cleans up the mess — and the disagreement between them is the actual decision. This works because those three want different things, not because naming a job title makes AI know more.
Three people review my decision below, one at a time, each in their own voice: the one who signs the cheque, the one who has to do the work, and the one who handles it when it goes wrong. Each gives their honest take and their single biggest objection. Then list where they disagree — that's my real decision. [decision]
Your turn
You're deciding whether to hire a second crew or keep subcontracting. Everyone you ask in real life agrees with you. Write a prompt that builds you a room that won't.
Remember: the AI sees only your prompt — not this page. If the situation isn't in your prompt, it doesn't exist.
