oh nah..im really a master of these AI tools. I just wish when i hopped on a stream..yall could see it.

As soon as I press live, the LLMs start acting up..but I'm elite cuz I know how to:
1) code
2) prompt

I feel like people that complain ..dont know how to do 1 of the two

i know i know..there's always these self proclaimed elite engineers that make fun of people that say you just have to learn how to prompt better...

but like..it's true. it's really a matter of communication skills. clarity.

and yeah yeah yeah..youre like i can just code this in the amount of time i took to prompt it..

the way i think of using AI is more like..okay I wrote this code out..and then im like dang..what if I approached it xyz way instead..

well thats where it would be wasted time for me to explore a different version of my initial approach so i might just say to my AI tool or goose..can you try changing it to do this..and then i will scrap that ..it's ugly af..deletes the code so fast..amazing.

here's an example..I built this

..and for a second i was taking mad long on it cuz i built the first version without AI out of pride..and after I was done..I had a bigger vision..so I was like scrap this..let's do it again.nokeyboardsallowed.dev

so then instead ..I asked all the AI tools to make what I was envisioning:

- Loveable
- Bolt
- Claude
- ChatGPT
- goose
-v0

I liked loveable's best..im like word..perfect . got the UI I wanted in less than 15 minutes.

then i downloaded the code I wanted locally..and just kept asking goose to iterate on it..i was just putting the most random little stuff in there that i thought was cute.

For example..I wanted to simulate the idea of subagents since that was part of the hackathon challenge

so i told goose..listen ..use the chrome dev tools mcp server..look at how the chrome dev tools console looks..copy that..but put subagents in there..make it look like theyre working on different things

then i was like let users be able to run console logs and stuff like that in this panel we made.

At that point ..I was just asking it to add random bs just for fun. lmaoo.

and i had it make a commit every time it made a change..so that if the code:
1) was ugly af
2) the ux was ugly af

I could always revert it.

i even made goose make the link preview..im not gonna sit here and make an svg. im like make that for me..here's what i want. i think it did an excellent job.

and any time it wrote code i considered bad..I would be like "yuck. hate that. please do better lol"

and right after that i closed my laptop..and took an uber to the airport lol. time saved.

bro i forgot ..i even told goose to deploy the project to vercel.
