AI-Assisted Building
Notes on using AI to speed up prototyping and learning.
What AI helps with
- Brainstorming implementation options
- Creating first drafts of scripts and utilities
- Explaining unfamiliar code quickly
What still needs human judgment
- Problem framing
- Tradeoff decisions
- Safety, ethics, and long-term maintainability
My practical takeaway
Use AI for acceleration, not abdication. Keep humans responsible for goals and quality.
