This changed how I use AI as a dev
|
Hey friend, I realized something recently: AI was slowing me down. I’d send a prompt… and wait. Even though I already knew what to do next. So I changed one thing.

Hey friend, This week, I built a working Blazor app from scratch in about 30 minutes. But that's not really the point. The point is how. Not by throwing a prompt at Claude and hoping for the best. But by thinking about architecture first, defining instructions and skills for the AI upfront, and then letting it implement while you stay in control and review the output. That's the difference between AI doing your job and AI doing the boring parts of your job. The video walks through exactly...
Hey friend, A year ago, I said AI coding tools weren't the future. I want to correct that. The distinction I missed: there's a real difference between vibe coding (copy-paste until it compiles, no understanding required) and skilled AI-assisted development (you own the architecture, AI implements it, you review the output). I was criticizing the first and accidentally dismissing the second. In 2026, skilled AI-assisted development is the professional standard. Not using these tools is now a...
