Biggest AI misconception: thinking AI can do things you fundamentally can't do yourself.
Seen too many devs burn through massive token budgets chasing impossible outputs, only to realize the hard way - if you can't clearly define the task logic, structure the data, or validate the output yourself, no amount of prompting will magically fix it.
AI amplifies capability, it doesn't create it from nothing. You still need domain knowledge to guide it properly.
