Sounds like you rediscovered the long held practice of "Rubber Ducking".
- floatrock 2y agoeh, writing it out is closer to "proto design document" or just plain ol "whiteboarding"
- resize2996 2y agothe only reason I haven't written a design doc or busted out the felt tip for my rubber duck is because it can't read.
- federiconafria 2y agoHave you tried? Maybe it can.
- floatrock 2y agoI mean, I'm sure there's some founder out there pitching an AI-powered rubber duck dev productivity tool. At the very least, someone at Copilot must have pitched a rubber duck avatar as the new Clippy by now...
- ninetyninenine 2y agoBut now the rubber duck can talk back and also on occasion hallucinate and lie to you to confirm your delusions.
- nh23423fefe 2y agoI guess I'll stop using this really useful tool because someone else is incompetent.
- arjonagelhout 2y agoHaha, that’s a good point. I think the main change from using these (reasoning) models is that I’m more cognizant of my thinking process, rather than there being a novel technique.
