Good points.

First use of AI code generation only recently - I think the key is to throw away code until you can one-shot the app. You wouldn't employ a dentist and tell them half-way through what they must do next.

That's just my first impression.

Interestingly, I started with Gemini and switched to ChatGPT using the initial creativity of Gemini as the starting point.

So like search results, why go to page 7 if you can just retry/rewrite repeatedly and never move passed page 1 because at one point, you'll find the right page at the top. As they say "too many cooks spoil the broth" so just get the menu selection right and the perfect meal will be delivered, and if it's not, don't send it back, throw it away and reorder! The cook won't care - it's a robot - no feelings.

If you can't one-shot it, or almost one-shot it - then you f##### up, not it.
