@jasonfreeman8022 i don't think things like Word's XML format is meant for hand editing. do you dare to do things merge and cherry pick? that's always the thing with these formats, even if it's text based. also while it's true that not being able to safely go back allows you to not have to commit to bad decisions, you still end up doing some code refactoring. i'm just saying that version control certainly helps, but it's not a silver bullet

@black-snow how does copying a single line from SO, delete all your work?

AI generating different things to the same question is due to a setting usually called "Temperature", that makes the output less predictable the higher it is. it was probably created as a way to mask the limitations (i also hate this because i too value reproducibility). if i'm not mistaking, generative AI can be fed its previous output to improve upon. i think the focus should be more on the human making the incremental changes to the specifications. the AI working incrementally is more of a detail, that may or may not be necessary to implement the specifications
