Someone vibe coded a PR on my team where there were hundreds of lines doing complex validation of an uploaded CSV file (which we only expected to have two columns) instead of just relying on Ruby's built-in CSV library (i.e. `CSV.parse` would have done everything the AI produced)

That’s a good example of ‘getting a desired outcome based on prompt’ - use a built-in lib or not.

And when it hallucinates a non-existant library, what are the magic prompts that you give it that makes it stop trying to bullshit you?

I wonder how many times the LLM randomly tried to steer back to that library only to get chastised for not following instructions.
