As soon as one understands that the AI needs to be treated like a new team member who has no clue what the project is about many issues resolve themselves. The biggest challenge though is to know: what do I want? And here it gets interesting because working with AI means stepping up and being crystal clear about that. Input mirrors output. Getting crap? The issue is always the person who asks the question. Never the AI. Like in real life really.
As we say, “garbage in, garbage out.” It works here too with the AI. Learning to prompt properly is just another skill, and it’s something everyone can learn. But I realize a lot of humans just aren’t clear about their intentions and don’t know how to ask for things specifically.

Oh great! I'm glad it helped!

I sometimes get the question form AI, what I want. And then I stumble and realize that I don't really know that.
So of course, AI doesn't know either. But I espected the answer from it.
