  • It’s funny cause I use AI in like the opposite way, I don’t dare let it change or add code unless it’s really simple and tedious, and even then I watch it like a hawk.

    How I use AI is to teach me about repos and libraries with obscure, hard to understand, or even no documentation. I do ask for help when I hit a roadblock but rather than taking the code it gives me, I dissect it. I ask what each little weird thing does and why it’s there and the AI’s explanations give me enough to look up the right things and verify it’s legit. Then I’ll write my own version with the confidence that I know what each piece means.



  • A lot of AI censorship that OpenAI used in the past was just something that detects a keyword and maybe sentiment analysis. Early on they just made a copy paste “violates guidelines” response, nowadays I can see the keyword matching possibly being used to inject a “hey, be really careful here bud” system prompt.

    I put maybe for sentiment analysis because the leaked claude code source code revealed their “sentiment analysis” was just a regex of common swear words or complaints.
