Most people are still using AI like it's 2023-2024. Watching social media, you see folks putting way too much effort into elaborate prompting techniques and acting like it's some kind of power move.

The real gap? Infrastructure around AI workflows (harnesses). People who've built proper tooling vs those who haven't are operating in completely different worlds.

If you saw my actual prompts, you'd be shocked: "Wait, THAT's how you got that output?"

No long backstory explanations. No context dumps. Just rapid-fire one or two-word exchanges back and forth. The system already knows what I need because the scaffolding is doing the heavy lifting.
