Key Points

  • The author says a common frustration when using AI tools is that users can generate text or code, but struggle to get the intended outcome or meaningfully align results with what they actually want.
  • They point out that even to fix a single basic issue, they may need to iterate by sending many prompts to converge on the desired answer.
  • The post suggests that the gap is often between the AI’s output and the user’s expectations, making it hard to know how to proceed with what the AI provides.
  • The author asks the community to share what specifically breaks down—whether it’s output quality or figuring out how to use the AI output effectively.

I've been working in the AI space for some time now and I always kind of hear the same probelmo , where u know people can generate content or code but can't get the outcome or the difference between what you actually want and what the ai wrote is kind of apart. I think just to solve like one basic error you send 10 prompts to solve it. Not downsizing AI cause its crazy to see the amount of heavy lifting it does.

But its a bit off, so curious

What breaks down for you? Is it like output quality or not knowing what to do with what the AI gives you?(not promoting anything).dw:)
