\u201cEmployees who don\u2019t really understand the goal they\u2019re after will spin in circles not knowing when they should just call it done or step away,\u201d Farmer says. \u201cThe enemy of good is perfect, and LLMs make us feel like if we just tweak that last prompt a little bit, we\u2019ll get there.\u201d<\/p>\n
