Amusing how this industry went from tweaking code for the best results, to tweaking code generators for the best results.

There doesn't seem to be any adults left in the room.

And seemingly we have stopped considering the fact that when we engineer something, we consider so much more than the behavior specified in the ticket.

Behavior built on top of years and years of experience.

And the problem with AI is that unless you explicitly 'prompt' for certain behavior you're only defining the end result. The inside becomes a black box.

Isn't having a prompt file turning the black box into an explicit codification of those years and years of experience? That would make it easier to understand and disseminate.
