Questions

Can ChatGPT build a project plan?

It can turn your goal, deadline and team into a draft plan with milestones and dependencies, and it is good at spotting what you left out. Give it your real constraints, then check every date against the people who will do the work.

Do these prompts work in Claude, Gemini and Copilot?
