Tips to use AI more effectively

If you’re a developer trying to use AI more effectively, here are 3 things that actually helped me:

1. Treat AI like a junior teammate
     Give context, constraints, and expected output — not just one-line prompts.

2. Iterate, don’t expect perfection
     The first response is rarely the best. Refinement is where value comes from.

3. Always review like it’s production code
     AI is fast — but not always right. Your judgment is still the safety net.

AI won’t replace developers.
But developers who use AI well will replace those who don’t.

What’s one workflow where AI has genuinely helped you?
