Have you tried asking it for a lay explanation of what it did? That’s usually all it takes for me. Sends garbage -> request -> sends something readable
Brilliant way to get people to waste tokens.
Maybe just don’t generate garbage in the first place?
Yeah but Sol shows it is possible to just send the readable explanation in the first instance. And I don't want to spend tokens and time on asking for a better version of each response.
When I ask it to make a CL description, it's worthless unless I tell it to dumb it down as much as possible, assume the reader has zero knowledge of the codebase. And then it makes a perfectly cromulent description that just needs a touch of trimming-down. If I don't do this, the description is just a wall of gibberish and paraphrasing of every little thing it encountered.
