Some of the code is different, but it's not a totally different app than it used to be.
And it happened very quick.
He was able to essentially stabilize it in a couple of days of work.
So it's pretty crazy what you can do.
And certainly at the scale that we're at and the level of sleepless nights that I was having,
I probably would be more careful next time, but I think generally this is fine.
It really can.
It contains all of the knowledge of all of humanity, and you're only kind of getting a little slice of what it knows.
Based on what you know to ask it.
Exactly.
So it's a real skill to use these things, and I don't think that's going away.
I mean, I just think a prompt engineer, I think everyone is sort of a prompt engineer.
But it's not like there are those little tricks that are...
you know, uh, like I'll pay you $2,000 or whatever and that, that you don't have to do anymore to get better results.
And they'll probably, there will probably always be like certain things you can do to like make it better.
But the big thing is, um, knowing how to manage the model, knowing how to ask for what you want and know if you're getting it back.
And that's like kind of prompt engineering, but it's very, um,
it's very specific to your workflow and what you want and the, and the, and the kind of thing that you're doing.
And so I think it's prompt engineering is like maybe like writing.
You can like, you write in all these different circumstances and you can get better at writing, but like we're really talking about specific things that you're trying to get done, you know?
