Field notes / 02
A question to carry

What does AI need to know before it answers?

Relevant evidence. Clear boundaries. A fresh perspective.

Better context. Better judgment.

01 / What learning should change

The same promise.
Applied to your practice.

Build understanding you can explain, a language you can share, and habits you can use without a prescribed prompt.

01

Shared intuition.

Recognize missing, misleading, or stale context.

02

A common language.

Explain what a task needs and what it excludes.

03

Everyday habits.

Scope each request and verify the response.

The goal is independence. Take these habits into unfamiliar work. The decisions remain yours.
