Another good point. I noticed this happening while writing my document.
A few times while writing the doc I had to go back and update the previous steps to add missing features.
Also I knew when to stop. It’s not fully finished yet. There are additional stages I need to implement. But as an experienced developer, I knew when I had enough for “core functionalty” that was well defined.
What worries me is how do you become a good developer if AI is writing it all?
One of my strengths as a developer is understanding the problem and breaking it down into steps, creating requirements documents like I’ve discussed.
But that’s a hard-earned skill from years of client work where I wrote the code. I have a huge step up in getting the most from these agents now.
