Thanks so much for this helpful, grounded guide!

Your recommendations are very consistent with my own experiences. Generally speaking, the more I research and think things through before asking AI to code, the better!

Such a good piece, thoroughly enjoyed it! :)

One insight I got away with was (and seeing this in my day-to-day too)...

AI didn't really change what makes a good engineer it just revealed who was cutting corners before by making it catastrophically obvious in production.

Thanks, Mia! Definitely have to be a lot more intentional and careful when coding with AI now :)

So many people still think “AI coding” means auto-generating full apps.

What you outlined is the real use case: using AI to offload the boring stuff so you can think sharper, design better, and ship faster.

Love this post.
