We don't have a link to it, but maybe we can find it for, if you follow the threads, you probably see he posted a, what did I have to say to AI to make one of these apps that he made?

And it was 77 different prompts and they were fairly complicated.

And it's kind of like one of those things of like, like I said, if you're like mentoring a new employee, it's faster if you just do it yourself.

But like, yeah, but I'm mentoring a new employee.

Well, you're not mentoring an AI.

They're not learning from what you're talking about.

Like in general, like the model is the model until they get, you know, it's obviously you got your context window, but that's basically it.

So you have to think like, do I want to spend the time mentoring a box of numbers that is just going to be replaced by different box of numbers later?

Um, or do I just want to do it myself?

But still like the, there are, there are targeted instances when used by a skilled practitioner where it can do amazing things that we're not possibly for, which is why people are excited about it.

And one thing I'll add to that, by the way, I still haven't let these things touch any of my apps code, not because my apps code is beautiful or anything, but just because I don't, I don't know.

I just don't want to, or I don't, I don't think I need to at this point because I'm not doing anyway, whatever.

But I did find something to do because I'm trying to use the last of my little hundred dollar subscription, which I did cancel by the way.

Oh, good for you.

Yeah.

I was trying to... It's going to run out.

It's going to expire soon.

So I'm like, well, let me just use the last little bits of it.

Here is one of the things that I would recommend.

If you ever want to play with one of these things and you're like, well, I'm not going to learn how to be a wrangler and use a coding agent to write my codes for me because it's complicated or whatever.
