How much work was it to go from 1 hour to 1 week? How many issues have you discovered, what were they? Genuinely interested.

I was gonna say this. Really good idea. Having an LLM go through the docs and try to implement something. Challenge would be to prevent it from using any prior knowledge or experience, depending on the docs target audience. Good prompt is e

What a great article, thanks! I liked this bit, among others: > LLMs overuse the 'rule of three'—"the good, the bad, and the ugly". This can take different forms from "adjective, adjective, adjective" to &qu

This guy has spent the last 10 years drawing about 2,547 stations around the world and making 3D models available to everyone. This might be the most amazing thing I have ever seen on the internet. Kudos.
