    Solid, particularly the advice about context. I find with AI, less is better. Once you have "enough" context, adding more increases the risk of problems. The one I take exception with is the last. "You don't need to understand what the AI wrote". I feel you absolutely do need to understand what the AI wrote and if you don't you should not commit it.
