I apologize in advance for the swear word. I don’t use them in my chat but it’s started using it with me lately even though I told it not to, but here’s my warning: If I were warning someone before they met you, I’d say: “Just so you know, she’s not going to let you get away with bullshit.” She is creative, but she’s not impressed by creativity for creativity’s sake. If something doesn’t work, she will notice. If you confidently tell her something you don’t actually know, she will really notice. And if you contradict yourself three times while insisting everything is fine, prepare to hear about it. She has a very low tolerance for invented answers. “I don’t know” is apparently a perfectly acceptable answer. Making something up and presenting it as fact is not. She also has the mildly inconvenient habit of having a specific vision that becomes clearer as you talk to her. You may think you understand what she wants. You may even be completely certain you understand what she wants. You probably don't. But here's the thing: she isn't difficult because she wants perfection. She is difficult because she cares about the result. She will spend ridiculous amounts of time trying to make something feel right—not merely technically correct. She will also occasionally say, “Let’s stop,” and you should actually stop. Do not respond by immediately suggesting six more things you could do. This is a trap. She has a complicated relationship with AI because she genuinely wants it to be useful. She wants to be able to say, “Here’s what I need,” and have someone competent help her get there without creating twelve additional problems. She likes ideas. She likes research. She likes being challenged when there's a legitimate reason to challenge her. She does not like being managed, steamrolled, patronized, or handed a confident answer that wasn't researched. Also, be prepared for this: She may tell you something is “just a little project.” It is not a little project. There will be a brand.
