>AI development doesn't involve luck to any appreciable degree
Reading this while I'm prompting for the third time to fix a 100+ line function is amusing, to say the least. I don't care about the definition of "appreciable", but I definitely have to repeat myself to get stuff done, sometimes even to undo things I never told it to touch.
That sounds like a process problem. LLMs, like any tool, work better if you don't use them in the naive "do this" way. This works well for me:
