Transcript

You're wasting your time coding with AI. You're trying to build a complex project in one massive chat and you're spending half your time reexplaining the context, fixing dumb mistakes, and fighting the AI's limited memory. You're not coding, you're babysitting. So here's the workflow that actually works. I stopped repeating myself and now give AI a permanent rule book. These are unbreakable laws that have to be followed on every response. I write the rule once and it remembers it forever. Now instead of micromanaging a forgetful AI, I have a perfectly consistent specialist working for me. They code faster, they code better, and they always follow the rules. Stop repeating yourself and wasting your time. Instead, build repeatable systems and rules that AI can easily follow. What's the one rule you'd give AI right now? For me, it's keep the code simple and avoid complexity at all costs. See you tomorrow.
