Perhaps being a PM for several years has helped, I’ve had great success speeding up my programming workflows by prompting Claude with very specific, well defined tasks.

Like many others are saying, you need to be in the drivers seat and in control. The LLM is not going to fully complete your objectives for you, but it will speed you up when provided with enough context, especially on mundane boilerplate tasks.

I think the key to LLMs being useful is knowing how to prompt with enough context to get a useful output, and knowing what context is not important so the output doesn’t lead you in the wrong direction.
