I want AI harnesses to automatically create a clickable outline of my chat so I can quickly navigate back to that part of my conversation. I waste so many tokens on: "remind me X" that we discussed above. Is there a editor or terminal alternative that does this?

Let me try to formalize some thoughts about Gen AI adoption that I have had, which I will call "The Bedazzlement Curve". Most people underestimate how useful Gen AI would be if they tried to find use cases and overestimate issues - they're in "The Valley of Stochastic Parrots"

if your user has to say "i think i just wrote a bad prompt" its 100% your fault as a builder this should never happen. it should just magically work whether it was a great or horrible prompt

Until models can write perfect prompts under the hood we’re not getting mainstream ai adoption Most people don’t know or care how to write “good prompts” After 1-2 attempts they’ll usually leave Better to think of prompting as a power user feature and build around that

I joined Udemy, then got fired and spent 1 year putzing about, 4 years in foodtech getting my ass handed to me, 2 years doing absolutely nothing work-related, then 1 year as a creator. Then finally re-emerged and am now working on Maven. This shit ain't a straight line.

100%. Same with schools. If you're losing more than half your students each year, there's a problem with the school.
This is such an important point. Turnover is one of the best metrics we have to asses job quality. If employees are all leaving...there’s a problem with the job.
