I Forgot to Use AI On My Latest Project I forgot to use an LLM to assist on my latest coding project. I probably set the progress of humanity back many hours. But hey, I learned something along the way. What did I learn? That I'd rather not use an LLM on this project. Jun 21 2025

I forgot to use AI on my last project. All the tech bros are laughing at me right now. I'm sure in the time I wasted I could have launched a cloud-based passive-income app, but now I have to have fun staying poor. I'll cry myself to sleep right after I get the satisfaction of learning something new and building something with my own mind.

  • I'm learning a new thing
    • I didn't even think to reach for the AI because I wanted to know what was happening.
    • I was playing with it. Why would I need to play harder?
      • That's like having a bot play video games for you. Do you not enjoy the game?
  • LLMs are only good for things you already know
    • They can maybe help teach you, but you have to spend the time playing i with the thing, and failing, to really learn.
    • The only output you can judge the quality of is output you are qualified to write yourself.
