The collaborative style of AI use struck me as the obvious correct use of AI, just as the more popular "AI writing code" style struck me as horribly incorrect and indication of yet again the software industry going off on a fool's tangent, as the larger industry so often does. I never have AI write code. I ask it to criticize code I've written, and I use it to strategize about large code organization. As a strategy consult, with careful LLM context construction, one can create amazing effective guides that teach one new information very successfully. That is me using my mind to understand and then do, never giving any AI responsibilities beyond advice. AI is an idiot savant, and must be treated as such.
