My prompts are getting shorter and dumber because the model "gets" what I'm doing even with fewer words. It's almost to the point where if you give it too much, you're constraining the model with too many requirements, when the thing it would have done otherwise was better/smarter. So I feel like the prompting meta is moving more towards fewer bits administered just right. I go back and forth on whether I should make a video on it because on the one hand people have these questions but on the other my best practices look so dumb it's almost embarassing.
don't think of your video as the "best way to do it", we'd love a video of how you specifically go through these things rather than a hyper-optimized way to go about it. it may be true that the next guy in here has a much more advanced process, but it surely doesn't hurt seeing someone with a 'bit of history' on the matter jump-n-run their way through small projects like this. I believe it would bring some comfort to those who feel like they're a thousand years behind already.
Wrote about similar observations few days back. Bespoke AI prompt, harness and context engineering seem obsolete after few months

Make youtube for hackers, that does not suck, or you're going to jail.
