My issue with ChatGPT is that when I get too far into the convo - it forgets context and it doesnt recover acurately in a new thread - so when I am prompting it to correct things, it will run out and get loast or hallucinate.

Going to try Codeium for VSCode, started a UI in figma... Figma has an AI build-with-buddy, about to dive in on that. (it already suggested a really crappy AI, but it got the idea of WaterMe! just from starting with that prompt, it go the basic gist - which should be obvious, but it was still impressive: https://i.imgur.com/LrHn9gA.png

When you find that it starts to lose context, there are some phrases that genuinely help "reset" it:

"Take a deep breath."

"Let's step back for a second."

I've also found that it's far more beneficial telling it what you want versus what you don't want.

I used "take a breath" and it actually then continued saliently...

Thanks for the tip.
