Developers treating AI like a teammate instead of a search engine are pulling ahead. The gap isn’t about better models—it’s about learning to delegate effectively through skills like prompt engineering, modularization, and workflow integration.
After 30+ years coding and 8 years in AI, I’ve learned everyone focuses on which LLM is best, but misses what really matters: knowing how to talk to it properly.
AI code looks perfect but feels wrong? After 30 years coding, I’ve learned the most valuable skill isn’t getting AI to write code – it’s knowing when to ignore it.
30+ years of coding taught me this about AI prompts: it’s not about finding the “perfect” prompt, it’s knowing when to iterate vs start over completely.
Most people prompt AI once and hope for the best. The real skill is knowing when to refine versus when to scrap everything and start over.
