AI is not Making Engineers 10x as Productive

Let’s talk about rules and docs, shall we? What makes a good rule for AI to keep it on task? What are your setups for docs and attaching them to the context (do you need to? Or just the location?)

Let’s boil this down to an easy set of reproducible steps any engineer can take to wrangle some sense from their AI trip.

The company I work at (https://getunblocked.com) is built to give tools like Claude Code and Cursor context based on all your docs, issues, code, and chat threads from Slack and soon Teams. Happy to give you a demo sometime if you're interested!

There are tons of these guides around the internet. I'm only using what other people have already published.

Aka, let's train people how to use the tool...

You seem to be against the idea. Yet you yourself were trained. Weird.

Let's check that the claim matches the evidence first!
