Yeah this is a great summary of what I do as well and I find it very effective. I think of hands-off AI coding like you're directing a movie. You have a rough image of what "good" looks like in your head, and you're trying to articulate it with enough detail to all the stagehands and actors such that they can realize the vision. The models can always get there with enough coaching, traditionally the question is if that's worth the trouble versus just doing it yourself.

Increasingly I find that AI at this point is good enough I am rarely stepping in to "do it myself".
