… It works pretty well for me, and I've been treating prompting these bots just as a skill I improve as I go along. Frankly it saves me a lot of time, I knocked out some work Friday afternoon that I'd estimate was probably 5pts of effort in 3 hours. I'll take the efficiency anyday as I've had less actual coding focus time in coding implementations than I used to in my career due to other responsibilities.
